Protestant Pastors
Trial Interrupted by
Bulgarian Holiday
RY the Assoeioted Press

SOFIA, Bulgaria. Mar. 3.-A
court recess for Bulgaria's. Inde-
pendence Day interrupted the trial
of IS Protestant pastors on treason
charges today.
Prosecution and defense sum-
nations begin tomorrow after the
conclusion yesterday of defense
testimony high lighted by an effort
of a former foreign minister to
win alienation of the possible
penalty for the Rev Vassil Ziapkov,
chief defendant.
George Kulishev, the former
minister, testified that contrary
to previous evidence Mr.. Ziapkov
was not an official member of the
Bulgarian delegation to the Paris
peace conference in 1916. The pros
ecution alleged that Mr.. Ziapkov
gave information to Western del
egations at the conference.
Bulgarian law provides the death
penalty for divulging official secret
information. Should the defense
claim that Mr.. Ziapkov was only a
private member of the delegation
be upheld by the court it might
tighten the sentence if he is con-
victed.
The courts decision in the case
may be reached Monday.
The prosecution abruptly ter
minated its case yesterday when
1t announced it was not calling the
remaining 42 of its SO witnesses
because the evidence already was
"abundant and clear"
