Although admitting the Virginia

OF course, Maury was re-

bitter fight, the reverberations of
which might shake to pieces the

charged with conspiracy and sa-

AS Vice Presidents Richard T.
FrankenSteen, Ed Hall, Wyndham

made final preparations to de-
fend themselves. they took issue
with the nine formal charges filed
against them by UAW President
Homer Martin.
"HAVE DEFENSE"
Stating they did not expect to
receive fair trial, the four ousted
executive board members said:
I'VE have a defense and will
insist upon presenting it."
Their defense, a spokesman for
the group said, will consist Of
counter-charges against Martin
and Fred C. Piper, finance COM

because we were in a position to
block an ill-considered and has

raised merely as a subterfuge."

are not Communists but now as

which we are charged to be that
certain Communists have at
one time or another called on

this conspiracy.

not one to jump so hastily to con-

auction of some 73 items of the
