Soviet regime He was leader in de-

came commissar of justice in 1881,
heading the all-union commissariat
Of justice in 1886
Much of the histrionics Of the Soviet
trials was Of his contrving. starting
with the theatrical trial Of So wreck
ers' Of the Donate coal region, in the
grand ballroom Of the Mobiles Club.
He was the prosecutor Of the eight
engineers in the sensational trial of
1890, of the IA heretical economists in
the Menshevist trial of 1881.
He is a short, blocky man, with an
iron jaw, meager gray moustache,
closely-clipped hair and glinting pale
blue eyes. He is apt to be dressed care
lessly, with his shirt open at the neck,
wearing an old military coat and shah
by puttees. He is Of the upper middle
class. soundly educated in the old Rus
sia. In the courtroom he speaks with
cold precision, but has been a fluent
expounder of the subtleties of Soviet
orthodoxy-caught in heresy at last, if
current dispatches are accurate.

UP. Refuses Per-
NIT for Crossing

A precedent establishing situation
has arisen involving the walla Wal.
La Grain Growers and the Unior
Pacific railroad, 1t was revealed il
Walla Walla Saturday.
The Grain Growers organization
has constructed a loading
bulk grain handling plant on the
bank Of the Columbia river Just
downstream from the r. r. Thrash
er orchard from which it plans tc
load an especially constructed
barge of the Tidewater Transports
ton company with wheat from its
elevators about the country.
But to reach the riverside ele-
vator, q crossing Of the Union Pa
cific tracks between the highway
and the river is necessary. So far
the railroad has withheld permis-
sion for such q crossing, pointing
out that the Grain Growers must
make application to the state public
service commission. It Is the rail-
roads contention that in view OF
the. federal governments grade
crossing elimination program and
because its tracks parallel the Col
umbia and Snake rivers for more
than 200 miles thus making the
present situation precedent setting,
that the Grain Growers organise
ton should apply for public serv-
ice hearing.
On the other hand A. Eugene
Kelley, manager OF the Grain
Growers, holds that this first at
tempt by the farmer-members of
his organization to nuke use OF the
river facilities provided by the gov
eminent for developing river navi-
CATION is being thwarted by what is
classified as AN obstructionist view
point" by the railroad company.
Local Union Pacific officials de-
clare that no professed application
for crossing Of their tracks has
yet been made by the Grain Grow
ers and point out that such an ap-
plication to the public service COM
could be put through with
in a short time, IL it was desired
that such policy be followed.
