Il prefer to let any other member
of the committe speak for himself "
The committee, he said, has final
jurisdiction theoretically, at least, y
over all food exports from this
country.
A sharp decline in exports to
Russia and Eastern Europe was
noted in Mr.. Sawyer's report.
Exports to all Eastern Europe
dropped to $5,7O0,000 in May, COM
pared to an average of $26, 6,000, 900 a

year.
Shipments to Russia fell so far in
June, Mr.. Sawyer said. that they
were below $50,O00. The Commerce
Department didn't even list them
on statistical tables.
But Mr.. Sawyer cautioned the
newsmen:
Il wouldn't want to give the i'm
preston that all exports have been
shut off completely. because they
are not"
He said no recent instances have
come to his attention of industrial
equipment shipped to other Euro

Russia.
When . reporter noted that ma
chinery and vehicle shipments to
Russia valued at $1,684,0O were

NEW YORK, Aug. IA (CDN.-
Some of the misty and fantastic
dime-novel aspects of the case of
the Russian teachers, Mrs. Oksana
Stepanovna Kosenkina and Michael
Ivanovitch Samarine, are beginning
to clear up.
There emerges the relatively SIM
pie picture of two middle-aged nom
political Russians. full of hatred for
the Soviet regime in their homeland
and willing to commit suicide rather
than return.
The biggest mystery which was
dramatized when Mrs. Kosenkina
leaped from the third floor Of the
Soviet consulate here, is the prob
able fate of Jacob Lomakin, the
personable and socially active Soviet
consul general in New York. In the
opinion of most observers, he blum
dered in colossal fashion in his
handling of the case of Mrs. Kosen-
kina.
An open letter to Mr.. Lomakin
appeared in Novoye Russkoye Slovo.

guage daily published in New York,

Tass said that only yesterday was
a Soviet vice consul permitted to
visit Mrs. Kosenkina in the hos

MRS. Kosenkina is surrounded
with police obviously exerting in
fiuence and attempting to make
declarations claiming they originate
from Kosenkina herself"
In a separate item, Tass reported
that Representative Mundt, Repub-
lican, of South Dakota, of the House
Un-American Activities Committee
has sent a telegram to New York
police. It said the telegram lin es-

NeiehborW orWoman Held
In Mystery Accident
By the Assoeiosed Press

HAVRE DE GRACE. Md, Aug
14-State police are holding a o.
year-old woman for questioning in
the case of Mrs. Lucy Field Leppo,
%, Of Baltimore, who was found
mysteriously injured Monday on
U. S. Route ! a mile south of this
town.
They identified her as Miss Frances
Rider, a next door -neighbor of Mrs.
Leppo.
Police said Miss Rider told them
she and Mrs. Leppo left Baltimore
Sunday night to visit relatives at
Huntington, w. Va, where they both
lived before coming to Baltimore.
She said they went as far as
Washington, then she Miss RIDER
changed her mind and returned to
Baltimore, leaving Mrs. Leppo to
continue on to Huntington alone,
according to police.
Mrs. Leppo remains unconscious
and in critical condition in a hos
pital here, where she is being treated
for possible skull fracture.
Brush burns on her face indicated
she had been thrown from a passing
car or struck by a hit-and-run
driver.
Mrs. Leppo's identity remained a
mystery until yesterday when her
husband, Lloyd M. Leppo, Baltimore
brewery worker, came to the hospi-
tai and identified her.
Mr.. Leppo said she had no money
when she left home but was wearing
a $38 wrist watch and two small
diamond rings. They have not been
found.

In otner words, TO be perjury, a
clear case of intentional lying must
be shown. There can be no element
of doubt as to the witness under
standing concerning the matter on
which he is being asked to testify
be it date or the identity Of a
person.
New Grand Jury Unlikely.
1t seems fairly certain there Will
be no special grand jury impaneled
here to consider evidence Of Com
munist spy activities. Such action
would mean, in effect, a review of
evidence already offered a special
Federal grand jury in New York.
The only new element is the pos
sibility of perjury arougtt out
through the committee hearings.
If Mr.. Fay's study of the tran
script, and any other information
the committee may furnish him

Clear Case of Intentional Lyinq
Must Be Shown for Perjury
Just who was lying?

Just who was lying?
The attempt to answer this ques-
ton about conflicting testimony
during hearings before the House
Committee on Un-American Activi-
ties on alleged Communist espion-
age leads directly to another query:
When is lying perjury?
Both of them now are being pom
oered by United States Attorney
George Morris Fay. Chairman
Thomas of the committee an
nounced yesterday Mr.. Fay had re-
quested and had been given the
transcript of testimony.
Mr.. Fay said today he is studying
the bulky record. He would not

any of the witnesses heard by the
committee.
Week Needed to Read 1t.
The size of the transcript, how
ever would indicate Mr. Fay might
need a week or more to read ano
appraise it.
Briefly. the offense Of perjury
for which prison term of up tc
10 years is possible penalty. is
lying while under oath. Some state
ments made by a sworn witness
could be proved false without that
circumstance providing sufficient
support for a perjury case.
For example:
Q-Do you know John Doe?
A-No. have never heard of him
Q-Didnt you have dinner with
him on April IL. 1912?
A-No, never had dinner with
anyone OF that name.
1t might be possible to prove the
witness did eat with Mr. Doe on
the date mentioned. When con-
fronted with such proof, however
the witness might be able to es-
cape the threat Of perjury
conviction by explaining brightly:

Price of Soviet Consurs BIunder
InKosenkino Case May Be Life

Valley Cottage, N. Y, where Mrs.
Kosenkina was in hiding when Mr.
Lomakin rescued" her last week.
They will liquidate Lomakin If he
returns to the Soviet Union" Mark
Weinbaum. editor of the paper, said
They don't forgive such things"
No Welcome From Countess.
Countess Alexandra Tolstoy, head
of the humanitarian foundation
which operates Reed Farm as a
refuge for displaced persons said
Indignantly that Mr.. Lomakin would
not be welcome there even If he
decided to take it on the lam.
One Of the strange aspects Of the
Kosenkina case cleared up today
involved the letter written by Mrs.
Kosenkina to Consul General
Lomakin, which Mr.. Lomakin last
Saturday described as an appeal to
the consulate to rescue" her from
the clutches Of white Russians"
At a press conference where Mr..
Lomakin related a fantastic story
of the rescue" he read only portions
Of the letter from Mrs. Kosenkina.
These portions told Of the woman's
love for my people,"
Editor Weinbaum, who has played
an important part in the sensational
history of Mrs. Kosenkina, revealed
that the letter written by Mrs. Ko-
senkina from Reed Farm actually
was remuneration of her Soviet
citizenship. The introduction Of the
letter, read by Mr.. Lomakin at the
press conference, did protest her
love for the Russian people.
Denunciation Of Russia.
But the main body of the letter
Mr.. Weinbaum said, was a pas
sionate denunciation of the Soviet
regime, and a notice to the consul
general that Mrs. Kosenkina did
not intend to return to her native
land, as she and other tutors had
been instructed to do when the
private school for children OF
official Russians was closed here in
July.
The letter revealed Mrs. Kosen-
xmas hiding place to Mr.. Lomakin
He and an assistant then went to
Reed Farm and brought her back
to New York.
Her failure to resist removal Is
now ascribed to her terror and her
ignorance of her rights of asylum
in the United States. She does not
speak English, and sat through the
fantastic press conference at the
Soviet Consulate last Saturday in
apparent agreement with Mr.. Lo-
makin's account of her kidnapping
and subsequent rescue"
| It was to Mr.. Weinbaum that Mrs
Kosenkina first went on July 20, te
ask for help. She came into his
Office furtively, closed the door be-
hind her, and told a piteots story
of her hatred, Mr.. Weinbaum said
Since 1914 I have been teacher
in Russia, a good teacher" Mrs
lKosenkina said. And what have
II got? Nothing but suffering
Mrs. Kosenkina told Mr.. Wein-
baum her husband was snatched by
Soviet police in 1887. during the
great purge, and that she has never
seen or heard Of him since.
During the siege Of Leningrad IN
1912, Mrs. Kosenkinas teen-age son
went into the service, and she has
heard no more of him.
The hope Of getting in touch with
her son through displaced persons
agencies in the United States, plus
her personal bitterness, brought
about Mrs. Kosenkinas decision to
try to remain In this country.
