FRED ROSE
 SENTENCED
 10 { YEARS
Communist Me m Der of Canadian Parliament
 Guilty of Espionage

MONTREAL, June 20-Fred Rose, Communist member of Parliament, was sentenced today to six years imprisonment for sending informa- tion illegally to Russia during the war.
 Rose told the court, before the judge pronounced sentence, that he had never done anything against the interest of his country.
 "Whatever has been said. I still say that I am innocent" he de- clared.
 Sentencing of the 38-year-old de- fendant ended one phase of the dramatic Canadian espionage case that began last March when he was arrested in his Ottawa apart ment. He still faces charges un- der Official Secrets Act and is scheduled to appear for trial on them next September, although this case may be delayed by an appeal from todays sentence.
 Mrs. Emma Woikin was sentenced today to six months in prison for contempt of court and four other persons charged with contempt in connection with Roses trial receiv- ed sentences of three months each. They had refused to answer ques- tions.

Russians Are Reported in Equipment Trade Deal !,
 with Argentina

WASHINGTON, June 20.-The State Department has asked the American embassy in Moscow for information on reports that the Russians are planning to trade ma chinery, trucks and other scarce equipment to Argentina for Argen- tine products.
 Diplomatic informants, who with held use of their names, told re- porters today United States repre- sentatives have thus far been un- able to find out what Russia's trade plans are. The Russians have been having a hard time getting enough machinery and trucks for their own use, but there is speculation at the State Department that they might use these things for political req sons in trading with Argentina.
 Any use of lend-lease supplies by the Russians would be violation of the lend-lease arrangement dur ing the war. The United States specified that each country receiy- ing lend-lease items must get the approval of the President of the United States before reshipping such material to another country.
