Earl Browder Surrenders To Begin Four Year Sentence

New York, March 25-(UP) Earl Russell Browder, tight Tipped and nervous, surrendered to the United States marshal today to begin sery- ing a four-year prison term assessed against the nations No. Com munist for passport fraud.
 The 50-year-old general secretary of the Communist party in the United States had just one remark to make for publication before lie was removed in a prison van to the federal house of detention for com mitment later.
 T want to get this over." he said. Providers appearance in court ended a battle to escape punish ment which he started soon after his conviction Jan. a, l940. of using an American passport obtained by fraud.
 The battle was clsmaxed last Feb. i7 when the United States supreme court upheld the conviction. leaving him no choice but to pay s2,OOO 1 fine and go to prison.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1941-03-25

While Browder was facing Federal Judge Samuel Mandelbaum and listening to the court clerk cry, For surrender, for surrender, Earl Rus sell Browder," friends elsewhere in the building were handing over a check for his fine.
 The check was signed by Elizabeth Gurley Flynn in behalf of the De- fense Committee for Civil Rights for Communists" Its presentation made 1t unnecessary for Browder to take a pauper's oath and submit to close questioning on his sources of income.
 Welwel Warszower. alias Robert William Wiener, former financial secretary of the Communist party who was convicted on parallel charges and sentenced to two years in prison, also appeared in court. He asked for suspension of sen- tence on grounds of health, assert- ing he would die in prison. Judge Mardelbaum referred his request to Senior Judge John c. Knox.

 Germany swept a reluctant Jugoslavia into the Axis camp today and cleared the way for a powerful Nazi challenge to British power and prestige from the Aegean to the mid Mediterranean. It appeared that all bets were down and that the principal belliger- ents - Britain and Germany would now come to grips in q major Mediterranean -African-Bals kan conflict.
 The offensive, 1t was assumed, will coincide with mass air attacks on the British Isles and desperate sea war intended to starve the British to their knees.
 Out of the welter of rumors and diplomatic maneuverings came these developments today:
 l. Jugoslavia signed the tris partite pact at Vienna with resers vation against passage of German troops across her territory and q guarantee that her sovereignty and territorial integrity will be respected.
 2. Marshal Rodolfo Graziai1i, Italy's North African commander, joined the parade of fallen Fascist idols. He was releived of his post and 1t was indicated that Germany has taken over direction of Italy's North African operations.

 State Capitol, Hartford, March 25. - The Democrat learned today that members of the Cities and Boroughs Committee of the Legislature were regarding with synpa- thetic interest the bill grant, ing & pension to Mrs. Kathryn Lynch, widow of the late Fire Chief Thomas J. Lynch of Waterbury, a hearing on which was conducted at the Capitol last week.
 The Lynch pension bill was among several, the granting of which was opposed by the City of Waterbury Under its provisions Mrs. Lynch, whose husband died in 1887, would be granted pension of $500 a year, retroactive to 1887. She would re- ceive @ lump sum as soon as the pension started.
 The Democrat learned, though, that while members of the commit tee, of which Senator John L. Sul- livan of New Britain is chairman, favored some sort of compromise on the amount to be paid immedi- ately on the pension, but dtd not propose to change the annual f1g- ure.
