Rule on 200 Exhibits
Awaited as Sedition
Trial Is Resumed
Defense Lawyers Renew
Arguments Against
Admitting PeIIey Papers
BY CARTER BROOKE JONES.

ny SAn LEN DhOohL JONLS.
AS the sedition trial was resumed
in District Court today the Gov
'ernment awaited a ruling from
Chief Justice Edward C. Eicher on
the admission of highly-important
exhibits before pressing its case
further.
Justice Eicher had studied over
the week end 200 documents seized
by the FBI at the publishing plant
lof William Dudley Pelley, a de-
fendant, at Noblesville, Ind. The
papers included letterA pamphlets
and magazines.
Arguments against the admission
of the exhibits occupied most of the
last session of the trial, and several
defense lawyers were yet to be heard
from.
While the papers referred pri-
marily to the activities of Pelley,
former leader of the Silver Shirts
and publisher of books and maga-
zines of limited circulation, defense
attorneys, in asking their exclusion,
indicated various others of the 26
defendants were concerned in some
of these exhibits Chief Prosecutor
o. John Rogge regarded them as
ma jor evidence in the Government
case of conspiracy.
The defense contended the papers
were seized on an illegal search war
rant, offering to prove this If given
an opportunity, and the exhibits
were protested also as having no
bearing on the charge in the indict-
ment that the defendants conspired
to undermine the loyalty of the
armed forces The court refused at
the week end to allow the defense to
go into the matter of legality of the
search warrant, but heard further
demands today.
1t was expected that when the
controversy over the exhibits was
settled the Government would pro-
ceed to another phase of its princi-
pal evidence in the long -dravn-out
case. II the exhibits were admitted,
Mr.. Rogge planned to read at least
portion of them to the jury.
The 18th week of the trial began
with the case making faster prog
ress than at any time since the
jury was impaneled. Interruptions
and by-play which clogged the trial
IN the early weeks had been re-
duced to minimum
