Atty. John Greco in a plea for . discharge of his client, Ralph Spin eli, i0, Of 740 North Main street charged with breach Of the peace resisting arrest and violating the city ordinance by making Q bonfire in an aileyway at 748 North Main street, declared that courts are rec sponsible for criminals, when they find them guilty on petty charges and the youth is stigmatiSed by the record.
 The charge was made Gfter a mos ton for Q discharge for the accused was denied by Judge T. Y. Conway, and in an emotional plea stated that Spinelli was not guilty in the sense Of the definition of the word in the dictionary. He maintained that the fire the accused Is charged with setting Monday morning when he was arrested by sergt. Walter Ahearn and Patrolman Michael Karpelman, was not bonfire" such as set on Q college campus, ct Yale University, or other schools.
 sergt. Ahearn said that when he told the youth to quench the ire, the accused uttered vile language, and made 6 swing for him.
 Judge Conway nolled charges of breach of the peace and resistance and fined Spinelli $6 without costs on the city ordinance violation. De- fenSe Attorney Greco appealed to the Common Pleas from the verdict and bonds of 4l00 was set.
 Judge Conway stated that '"po- lice arc not going around picking fights and if people have q right attitude" they would not be gets ting into trouble. This comment was made after Attorney Greco concluded his vehement charge that the lower courts were an iSl- cubation for the future criminal by stigmatizing them with the police criminal record.

British utimatum which expired at midnight last night
 Replies Unsatisfactory
 At lam. the Foreign Office state- ment said;
 Tt Is officially stated in London that no satisfactory replies having been received from the Finish, Htifi- garian and Rumailian governments to notes addressed to them last week, communications are being sent to these three governments which will result in the existence of state of war"
 It was announced that notes were dispatched to Washington for transmission through the United States ministers at Heisinki, Budas pest and Bucharest, notifying the governments concerned that Brlt- ain would be ct war with them NA from one minute past midnight to- night Greenwich mean time (7:10 D. in. Saturday EST).
 An official statement added that shortly before midnight last night the foreign office received Fin" lands reply to the British ultima. tum, demanding cessation of the fight against Russia. which was entirely unsatisfactory. Firland's note made 1t clear, the statement said, that it had no intention Of complying wih British conditions,
 No replies were received from Hungary and Rumania, 1t was an- nouneed.
 U. s. to Deliver Note
 As the result of the Finnish re- lection and the failure of the other countries to reply. 1t was said. communications were sent to the three powers and the Ameri- can ministers at the respective cap- itals would deliver the notes today.
 "The British attempt to cause Finland to cease hostilities against Russia failed, and within @ few hours Britain and Finland will be at var" 1t was said.
 At the outset the Finnish gov- ernment insisted that 1t had no aggressive intentions and was wag- ing a defensive war. Tn view of this Rritain's requirement. that Finland stay put appeared rea- sonahle. Unfortunately 1t became increasingly clear that since July the Finnish government had been waging war against Russia for the purpose of territorial aggrandise- ment."

 and then the Russians counter attacked.
 In the same sector, it was assert ed that the Russians had recaptured numerous villages and forced the Germans back to the western bank of the Nara river.
 On Moscow's southwestern side, Moscow said Russian counter attacking troops were pursuing the Germans in one sector and had forced them into a disorderly re- treat in which they were abandon ing village after village.
 DisOrderly Retreat
 Apparently describing this action, the early Russian war communique said the Russians counter-attacked against two German infantry di- visions and one tank division which were concentrated on a small sec- tor. What started as a slow Ger man withdrawal became a disorder ly retreat, the communique said, and the Russians occupied a num- Der of villages. The Germans lost more than 1000 dead on the battle- field, 1t was asserted, and the Rus sians took 36 tanks, several armored cars, 46 field guns and much war material.
 Tn the Tula area south of Mos- COW, German gains were admitted by Russia, but 1t was said that at most points the Red army had held firmly and that German flanking attempts had been thwarted.
 The situation in the far south seemed unchanged. there was every indication that every German at- tempt to make a stand had col- lapsed.
 A German rear guard still held part of Taganrog, 1t was indicated, but dispatches said the Germans were withdrawing as frantic pace.

 According to the state depart- fnent, these pleas remained unan- swered until recently when Finland filed 6 note denying aggressive in- tentions. This was believed to have left the way open for further peace feelerS but Finland's action in join. ing Germany'S anti-comintern pact convinced officials that the govern nient was completely under German domination.
