Jan. 27. i "United States Senator Truman II. New- berry and 123 men prominent In Michi gan politics went on trial in the Federal District Court here today, charged witn Conspiracy, fraud nnd corruption in the 1 1018 senatorial election. The import- 4 nni nf thi issue involved, the prom- j Incnce of most of the defendants and J the imposing array of legal talent pre I saged one of the most notable cases in i the legal annals of the state. I Of the 135 men indicted Dy mo 1 federal grand jury last November, uino nave entered pieas oi noio muiruwio. the case of one has been continued owing to illness, and another, upon whom service, hai not been obtained, was said to be in South America. Twenty-three pleaded not guilty and 101 stood mute when arranged. The government's case is iu charge of Frank C. Dailey, former United States district attorney at Indianapolis, who prosecuted the Tcrre Haute elec tion cases. Martin "W. Littleton, who last week withdrew as counsel for the New York assembly committee trying the five suspended Socialist assembly men, headed the legal forces of the de fense, which are said to number about fifty. Aside from the defendants, the 135 Teniremen, attorneys, court attaches and nine newspapermen, few were able .to gain admittance to the opening ses sions of the trial, and the little court room of Judge C. W. Sessions had to tie rearranged to seat these. Wide Range or Indictments The indicted men include every mem ber of the committee that conducted the Newberry campaign and state, county and.municipal officials in virtually every county from Lake Superior to the Ohio border. ... S The indictments charge violation of j! both federal and state laws by use of money and violation of the federal cor- rupt practices act. Use of the mails "to aeiraua an toe peopie oi .uicmsuu is further charged against the campaign committee. More than $100,000 of the contributed fund, it is charged, was con verted to the personal use of some of the campaign managers. James W. Helme. former state dairy and food commissioner, who opposed J Henry r ora lor tne uemocrauc nomi 8 nation in the senatorial primary, the ! Indictment alleges, was compensated by S the Newberry organization for making j the primary race. The alleged purpose t was to prevent Democratic voters from "lining up" with Ford in the Republican primary. 5 Attached to the indictments is a ht 4 of more than twoscore "overt acts." These contain charges that a number of J those indicted had given rewards rang 3 ing from promises of a "good job" to i payments of sums ranging from So to $2750 in return for support in the New l berry campaign. One country editor is J alleged to have received a ton of print 5 paper. Defendants Under Heavy Bond J Senator Newberry and thirteen of the- men who directed the camnaltn work in 1018 appeared before Judge sessions juccemocr s and on the advice Of counsel stood muto. The right to raise technical questions, it was stated, would have 'been sacrificed by picas of not guilty. Senator Newberry and each of the thirteen men who appeared with him were held In bonds of 510,000 and $5000 on tho first and second in dictments, respectively. The maximum penalty for tho of fenses charged is a fine of $10,000 and two years' Imprisonment. The possible duration of the trial was variously estimated at from four weeks to two months. Both the gov ernment nnd the defense were expected to call several hundred witnesses. WEDS RUSSIAN PRINCESS American Mission Member Takes Bride in Caucasus New York, Jan. 27. (By A. P.)

RADICAL MUST sol; BOOK URGES FORCE Seizure of Industries Advo cated in Pamphlet Road at Assembly Hearing WRITER OUTLINES TASK By the Associated Press Albany. N. Y.. Jan. 27. Proponents of "the dictatorship of the proletariat" bold that the first step must be .seizure of ihe government by any means pos sible and the taking over of industry by force, according to a pamphlet read today at the trial before the Assembly judiciary committee of the five sus pended Socialist assemblymen charged with disloyalty. The pamphlet, written by "Hall Rogroff" and published by the Jewish Socialist Federation of New York, was translated from the Hebrew by Charles M. Robinton, a Department of Justice operative serving the joint legislative committee investigating radicalism, who was recalled to the stand today. Purporting to give views of both pro ponents and opponents, the pamphlet asserted the former held preparation must be made for "revolution" and "class dictatorship." Upon the seizure of the industries, they would run by workingmen's Soviets, according to the program. The dictatorship was said to be necessarily u temporary phase in the transition from a capitalistic to a so cialistic form of government. "Socialists." the book set forth "seek to enter into the government for two reason, first, to be nearer the doors ot the government counsels, and second, to hinder this character of work in any way possible. The first is the more im portant as it gives the Socialist a chance to see into the strategy of the govern ment, thereby enabling him to carry out his propaganda better. It is true that not always is this aim reached. The bourgeoisie atmosphere which he breathes gradually infects him and he begins to make compromise." The pamphlet defined socialism as "a Red movement, with blood in its veins," asserting that "in America we have had only the echo of what happened in Europe"; the stage here wag still one of "theoretical discussion," the book said, and there was "dauger the house cleaning will not be as thorough among us as it should be."
