High Court Is Asked
To Clarity 1917 Act
Forbidding Spying
Counsel for Two
Convicted Men Ask
Question Be Settled
BY the Associated Press.

The Supreme Court was asked
today for an authoritative con-
struction" of the 1917 act which
forbids spying at any place con-
nected with the national defense"
If applied too broadly the act
could be held unconstitutional, the
court was told by counsel for Mikhail
Nicholas CORN and Hafis Salich,
convicted in Southern California Of
violating the act.
Salich, who once worked for the
Naval Intelligence, was charged with
furnishing CORN, described as q
Russian citizen, with Naval INTEL
ligence files concerning activities Of
japanese and alleged Communists
in this country and Of Japanese in
Mexico.
The petition said CORN solicited
the information, in 1898, "for use
In the event of trouble between
Japan and Russia"
Counsel for the two men told the
Supreme Court the question pre-
sented by their case was:
What disclosures of information
are prohibited by the Espionage
Act?"
Arguing that 1t was an everyday
thing for persons to collect and re-
port information about matters more
or less connected with national de-
fense, the petition continued:
There is the gravest danger, not
only to unintentional lawbreakers
but the public generally, In defining
onenses of this (espionage) char
acter In such vague terms that in
times of stress and public excitement
large numbers of persons may be
subjected to criminal prosecutions
for actions which heretofore had
been regarded as either minor
derelictiOns or entirely innocent
exercises Of q citizens right to know
how his Government Is being car
ried on"
CORN was sentenced to six years
in the California Federal Court,
Salich to four years.
CORN, with his wife, was said in
the petition to have entered the
United States in 1896, and to have

Senator Walsh explained that
heretofore the Nays authorized air
force of 5000 planes was designed
primarily for fleet operations, while
the new program is essentially for
shore defense, with 1000 planes and
14,000 new pilots added to man
these new bases. In announcing the
plans after visit to the White
House, the two Naval Committee
chairmen said:
1T will take from two to three
years to develop the training facil-
tiles and from three to five years
to develop the air bases, even If
operations are started at once.
THE President is expected to
assign 100 millions of the $50 mil
lions asked for the Navy in his
special message, for aviation pur-
poses.
"The above completes the naval
aviation program for the present
session of the Congress as agreed
upon today by the President, Sen
ator Walsh, Representative Vinson,
Admiral Stark, chief of naval op-
erations, and Admiral Towers, chief
of the Naval Bureau Of Aeronautics.
The additional air bases author
lied In the present bill are essen
TALLY those recommended to the
Congress last year by the Hepburn
Board, except that the present bill
does not authorize the development
of Guam as major air and subma-
rine base"
The 100000, 900 referred to in
their statement is expected to be in
the Navy supply bill about to come
out of the Senate Appropriations
Committee. -"..-

Reds Prestige Front
Charge Follows Fight on
Campaign to Register
Aliens in Georgia

ATLANTA, May 22.-Gov. E. D..
Rivers charged today the American
Civil Liberties Union, which is
threatening an injunction against
his campaign for registration Of
aliens In this State, "has been the
prestige front for communistic
agiators since the days of Lenin."
The Georgia chief executive issued
q written statement In comment on
q protesting telegram he received
from Roger N. Baldwin, director Of
the A. G. L. U.
They have tried to keep out of
jail every fifth columnist and MOTOR
ious criminal who ought to be in Jail
from Sacco-Vanzetti to the Scots
boro rapists and Angelo Herndon," /"
Gov. Rivers declared.
They boast of their defense of
these enemies of our country who
try to destroy it from within. We
Will be ready for these enemy para
chutists If they do try to bail out in
Georgia"
Gov. Rivers seeks to invoke
Georgia's old anti-sedition law under
which Angelo Herndon, q Cincinnati
negro, was convicted years ago of
melting to insurrection. The United
States Supreme Court reversed the
conviction and voided certain Sec
tions OF the Georgia law.
News dispatches from New York
yesterday said the A. C. L. U. plan
ned to seek an injunction against
Gov. Rivers "order" that aliens be
registered and fingerprinted. It was
pointed out at the Capitol, however,
that the Governor issued no order
put merely a proclamation request
ing aliens to register and be finger
printed.

Florida, the author who cast the
lone favorable vote, supported the
proposal with the argument, Sena-
tor Pittman reported, that "Hitler
had violated all the rules of inter-
national law and that the success
of the allies was of vital Importance
to U.S."
Later Senator Pepper expressed
regret the committee took such "un-
realistic action" He said his resolu-
ton merely authorized the President
to deliver to the allies certain OF
our airplanes which are the older
type and are now simply sitting on
the ground, daily growing obsolete
against some eventual day of use.'
They would have been sold, OF
course. for fair price and for cash, u
said the Florida Senator. I'm lieu
thereof. the President could have
taken delivery from manufacturing
plants of this country, planes that
are being built under contract now
for the allies, which would have
been the latest and newest in type
Senator Pepper, commenting on
the technicahties of international
law involved, observed, II say the
very existence of international law
depends upon the allies getting
planes from us on time"

moving defense drive included:

with an increase from 5000 to 10,-

to 5000 in naval pilots. Some of
the money to start this program is
in the big Navy supply bill.
Vinson to Seek Action.
Chairman Vinson of the House
Naval Committee made plans to
seek House action tomorrow on the
bill approved by the committee yes
terday to speed up Navy shipbuild-
ing by modifying profit restrictions
on contracts and permitting longer
hours in shipbuilding yards, with
time and one half for all over 40
llOuIS b Week.
Senator Clark, Democrat, Of Mis-
souri,, was prepared to take the floor
to challnege the need for leaving part
of the Army defense fund to be allo-
Gated from a lump sum by the Presi-
dent. The MisSourian said he is not
questioning the amount, but believes
that If Congress can specify the use
to be made of the bulk Of the fund
it should know what the entire fund
is for.
Although several others may join
in the debate, approval Of the bill as
it stands is expected before evening,
which will send the first half Of the
defense program to conference with
the House.
The new chain of naval air bases
is embodied in bill offered jointly
late yesterday by Chairmen Walsh
and Vinson of the State and House
Naval Committee, respectively. While
it is only the basic authorization,
they said as soon as it passes, q de-

Willing 10 Negotiate
With Britain on
Other Trade Topics
MoIotoff Replies
To Recent Note
From Lord Hulifux
~ the Associated Press.

~ the Associated Press.
MOSCOW, May 22.-Soviet Rus
sia made it clear today that while
she was amenable to undertaking
trade negotiations with Britain, she
would not enter into any sort of
agreement which might interfere
with her commitments to Germany.
This stand, according to Tass,
oficial Soviet news agency, has
been conveyed to Britain by Premier
Foreign Commissar Vyacheslaff
Molotoff in a note asserting that
Russian trade policy cannot be
subordinated to the aims of any
foreign state"
Tass said the statement replied to
a May 8 note in which British For
eign Secretary Lord Halifax, feeling
the way for trade talks with Russia,
preached the possibility of restrict
ang" the delivery of Soviet war ma
terials to Germany.
Insists on Full Trading.
"Such questions" Molotoff said,
s"concerning trade between the U. S.
IS. R. and Germany come wholly
and completely under the COM
petence of the Soviet government
and cannot form the subject of
discussion during trade negotiations
between the U. S. S. R. and Britain.
"The Soviet government notes
that the very fact that the British
government has raised for discus
sion questions coming solely under
the competence of the Soviet gov
ernment does not testify to the de-
sire of the British government to
- conduct trade negotiations with the
u. S. S. r."
Further outlining Russian trade
policy. Molotoff said:
{. Being sovereign state, the So
.viet Union will carry on its foreign
trade both with belligerents and
neutrals on the basis of princi-
piles of complete equality of parties
and reciprocity of obligations"
Will Not Re-Export to Reich
While declaring that Russia could
not discuss her relations with Ger
many with a third party, Molotoff
gave new assurances that any goods
imported from Britain would not
be re-exported to the Reich.
In connection with the trade talks
with Britain, Soviet sources said
London has not given very con-
vtnving" explanation concerning
the detention of two Soveit freight
ers, the Selenga and Mayakovsky.
which were seized several weeks ago
in the Far East.
The British had sidestepped the
question, it was said, by merely not
ing that the vessels had been
turned over to French jurisdiction.
1t was indicated that Russia still
eheld Britain responsible, despite
this action.

bill to bring the services enlisted
strength up to 10000 men. It also

Usual Procedure Discarded.
simultaneously, the House agreed
to request of Democratic leaders
to dispense with usual parliamentary
procedure and take up tomorrow de-

Naval Affairs Committees. These
include bills to authorize unlimited
expansion of the Army Air Corps
which Is aiming for a 10000 plane
fieet-and a minimum of 10000
planes and $4,000 pilots for the
Navy.
Appearing before the Naval Com

peace must be stronger than those
desiring war;"

allies because, its author argued
''the success of the allies was OF

war.
