Red Editor Says U. 5.
Is No Exception
To Marxist Law
By the Assoeiafed Press

NEW YORK, Aug. 23.-A de-
tense witness at the Communist
conspiracy trial said yesterday the
United States is no exception to
the Marxist law that capitalism
must give way to socialism.
The witness, Abner w. Berry OF
New Rochelle, N. Y, Negro ed
itor, made the statement under
questioning by Federal Judge
Harold r. Medina.
Berry also explained what
Communists mean when they talk
about democracy" in the form ol
q majority" decision on wher
and how socialism shall be
brought about.
The witness said the Com
munists do not mean a decision
by the ballot-but by unidentified
groups Of people whom the Reds
consider good people who want
good things"
Edits Red Paper.
Berry, who took the stand for
II top Communist leaders on
trial, identified himself as the
editor Of the Harlem edition Of
the Worker, the Sunday edition
Of the Daily Worker, Communist
newspaper.
The defendants are charged
with conspiracy to advocate vio-
lent overthrow Of the Govern
ment.
The defense withdrew a wit
ness from the stand yesterday.
charging that Judge Medina's rul-
ings made 1t utterly impossible
to lay before the jury the teach
ings Of the Communist Party"
Judge Medina ruled that the
witness. Herbert Aptheker. could
not answer questions about his
books on Negro problems. or
about what the preamble to the
party constitution means.
Red Version Of Democracy.
When Judge Medina asked Ber-
~ what Communists mean py
democracy" the witness replied
that politically 1t means that
everybody could run for ONCE and
vote, and "the will Of the majority
would be respected In every pos
sible way"
Economically, the witness said
It means that the workers would
have a say about their means OF
livelihood; socially. that there
would be complete obliteration OF
Jim Crowism, complete right OF
association for every one to live
where he wants and marry whom
he pleases."
Judge Medina gave preliminary
notice to prosecution and de-
tense In the z month old
trial to get ready for its end,
which still is nowhere In sight.
He announced that requests from
counsel for inclusion Of material
in his charge to the jury must be
in his hands one week before
