NEW YORK ELECTION SMASHING SUCCESS

If you have an idea that a New York City election consists entirely of dropping ballots in ballot boxes, take a look at this. It’s a scene of destruction that thugs left behind them in a beer garden on primary day. The proprietor had displayed banners supporting the opponent of former Sheriff Thomas Farley for leadership in the Fourteenth assembly district.

Sensation Marks Trial of Five in Reichstag Burning

Youthful Dutchman Stirs Court With Denial He's Communist. flfl I tiitrd I'rrxst LEIPZIG, Germany, Sept. 22. A mumbled denial that he was a Communist uttered by Marinus Van Der Lubbe. youthful stonemason, caused a sensation at the opening of the trial here Thursday of five glum men. fighting for their lives against charges that they set the reichstag building in Berlin aflame the night of Feb. 27. The judges of the supreme court, austere in judicial robes, heard the 24-year-old youth declare he no longer was a Communist. He was said by the government to have confessed he set the reichstag on fire, and his testimony had been counted on by the Nazis to prove that the five Communists on trial were conspirators in a nation-wide Communist plot to cause a reign of terror in Germany against Chancellor Adolf Hitler. Trial of the five men—the Dutchman. a German and three Bulgarians—opened punctually at 9:10 a. m in the high, gloomy wainscoted hall of the supreme court, scene of many famous trials.

On the arrival of the judges in robes, the audience rose and gave them the Hitler Fascist salute. The prisoners already had marched in. Van Der Lubbe, in a blue prison suit, hair unkempt, was handcuffed between a policeman and a prison guard. He paid not the slightest attention to his surroundings. Aroused Bites Lips Ernst Torgler, former Communist leader in the reichstag, came next. He was extremely pale and nervous, biting his lips and staring straight ahead. Then came the three Bulgarians—Georg Dimitroff, 51, a writer; Wassil Taneff, 36, a shoemaker, and Blagoi Popoff, 31, a student. President Judge Buenger read the charges of high treason and arson against Van Der Lubbe and of treasonable activities against the others. The defendants with the exception of two of the Bulgarians, acknowledge that they understood the charges, which then were translated into Bulgarian. Youth Is Reprimanded The questioning centered on Van Der Lubbe. who emerged at the end of the first dpy of this bizarre trial as a “yes-no" man. He would reply to the judge's questions in a dull monotone, answering first, “Yps." and then, before questioned again, mumbling "No.’’ Presiding Judge Buenger in exasperation twice reprimanded Lubbe. The youthful Dutch stonemason admitted on the stand that he was committed to an institution for children with criminal tendencies when 12. The session closed after tracing his arrival in Berlin in February, eighteen days before the reichstag fire. PURDUE ANNOUNCES TWO NIGHT CLASSES Extension Instruction to Be Given at I. U. Center.
