molested, to work as he sees fit, and
to join any organization, labor or fra

he would protect those rights"

MOSCOW, June 14-TWenty-eight
persons have been convicted and exc
cuted at Svobodny, in the Soviet Far
East, for wrecking the Amur Railroad,
it became known today.
(These executions increased to ISL
the known total of persons condemned
and shot during the last year in the
Soviet governments drive to stamp
out all its internal foes)
The charges against these alleged
"wreckers" were similar to those made
in three previous trials in the Far
East, at Svobodny and at Khabarovsk.
These already had resulted in 66 exc
cutions.
All the condemned were accused of
being participants in a Trotzkyist
Japanese spy and terror organization
which allegedly acted along the Amur
Railroad.
News of the newest Far Eastern
executions came on the heels of the
conviction and shooting Of eight Rec
Army generals, once the flower o1
the mightiest armed fcrce in the
world. They were executed Saturday
for treason, accused of selling out
their comrades to Nazi Germany.
This case apparently had no direct
connection with the Far Eastern trials
except that all reflected the Soviet's
grim determination to wipe out op.
position on every front.
The latest Far Eastern executions
were carried out on June 4. according
to terse communique reaching Mos.
COW today through the medium of tht
Khabarovsk newspaper, Pacific Star.
