browder, Arguing
Own Case, Demands
Rights as Citizen
Could Not Be Barred
Because Of illegal
Passport, He Contends
BY the Associated Press.


NEW YORK. Jan. 22.-Earl Brow
der, Communist leader, argued be-
fore Federal court jury today that
it must acquit him of passport fraud
charges unless it wished to set a
precedent that "a citizen may be
exiled from his own country"
Although he had engaged George
Gordon Battle, one of New York's
best known lawyers to defend him.
Browder chose to sum up his own
case, explaining to the jury that he
was correspondence school lawyer.
Moreover, he said, he was intimate
ly familiar" with all the facts.
What he had done, the general
secretary of the Communist Party
in the United States asserted, was
merely to return to his own country
on his own passport after travels
abroad in 1887 and 1898.
~ Defense Moves Dismissed.
Browder4 had travelled in foreign
lands previously on passports issued
in the names of Nicholas Dozenberg,
George Morris and Albert Henry
Richards and in applying for pass
port in his own name, according to
the prosecutions had written none"
in reply to a question asking where
his ''last passport" was obtained.
Browder argued the word none"
meant simply that no passport was
being attached for cancellation. It
did not mean, he declared, that he
had never before received a pass
port.
Browder began his summation
after Mr.. Battle vainly moved for
dismissal of the indictment on the
ground the Government had failed
to prove its charges. He offered no
defense testimony.
Rights As Citizen Cited.
Browder cited his American birth
and said:
There is no such thing in the
law as an illegal entry of citizen
of the United States"
Did this display of the passport
gain entrance into the United States
for me? 1t did not. The display
of the passport informed the inspec-
tor that he could not keep me out.
- received the passport under
my status as a citizen which is un-
challenged here
The American Communist leader
and former presidential candidate,
who admittedly used names not his
own on passports and then pleaded
innocent after his indictment, ex-
pected his case to go to the jury
quickly and dissolve Immediately
afterward.
That might permit him to 60 to
Madison Square Garden as princi-
pal speaker tonight at a rally
furthering his candidacy for the
seat left vacant by the death of
Representative william Sirovich of
the 14th congressional district.
It was pointed out passport appli-
cations carry line reading, my
last passport was obtained from
=" Office on I" date and is sub
mitted herewith for cancellation"
The Government says Browder
wrote "None" in the first blank in
1884 when he applied for passport
under his own name after previously
using passports made out in others
names.
It was on Interpretation of the
word that Browder gambled his
chances of acquittal-or conviction
which could carry 10 years impris-
onment and a $4,000 fine.

II managed to be lowered into q
lifeboat from the French warship,
but I saw another boatload, includ-
ing women and children, spilled into
the water when one of the Orazio's
lifeboats was launched. The flames
had burned through the ropes.
They were all picked up, however"
