Trial Errors
Cited;
Reheoring
By ROBERT X. WALSH

The Supreme Court today
ordered the freeing of five Cali
fornia Communist Party leaders
and new trials for nine others
who were convicted of teaching
and advocating violent overthrow
OF the Government.
The decision turned on pro-
cedural points such as asserted
errors Of the trial judge in Fed
eral Court in California and in
sufilciency of evidence. It APP
parently did not affect basic
validity of the 1910 Smith Act
which makes a felony of advo-
cacy and teaching of forcible
overthrow of the Government.
The opinion. delivered by
Justice Harlan, drew an about
dissent from Justice Clark. jus
tices Black and Douglas dis
sented in part but only on the
ground that they believed the
convictions of all IA of the Cali
fornia Communist leaders should
have been reversed with direc-
lions for acquittal.
Sees Similarity in Cases
Justice Clark said he saw no
real difference between the 1850
conviction of IL top national
Communist Party leaders in New
York Federal Court and the con-
viction of the second-string
group in California in 1852. He
noted that the convictions in
the New York case not only were
upheld by the Supreme Court
but also that the Smith Act
section under which they were
convicted was declared consti-
tutional by the high court.
Maintaining that the evidence
at the California trial showed
guilt beyond a reasonable doubt
and was fundamentally the same
as resulted in the New York
convictions. Justice Clark ;a!d:
I'm any event this court should
not acquit anyone here. In its
long history I find no. case in
which an acquittal has been
ordered by this court solely on
the facts. 1t is somewhat late to
start in now uSurping the func-
ton Of the jury especially when
new trials are to be held cover
ing the same charges"
Vote is 4 tO3
The decision technically was
by four-to-three vote. Justices
Brennan and Whitaker did not
participate. The partial dissents
of Justices Black and Douglas
amounted almost to concur
renee because they believed the
court did not go far enough.
The upshot of the court opin-
ion was that acquittals should be
ordered on the basis of insuffi-
Gent evidence for Philip M. Con-
nelly. Communist editor in Los
Angeles; Mrs. Rose Kusnitz of
Los Angeles. AL Richmond Of
San Francisco. Frank E. Spector
of Los Angeles and Henry Stein
