There was hope that Germany and Italy, though they withdrew from the nonintervention committee, might yet return to it. The Spanish Loyalists saw the withdrawal as a threat of aid to the rebels. But—provided Germany and Italy are not prepared to intervene directly in aid of the rebels —the Loyalists themselves might profit.

I. O. New England representative, his Boston lawyer, Sidney Grant, and five other organizers, if this .is denied, the case will be taken to the United States Supreme Court, he added. 3 The writ charges that the sentence went beyond the civil powers of Supreme - Court Justice Manser and violated the constitutional rights of the seven men. The proceeding resulted from an injunction by Justice Manser forbidding the C. I. O. to promote a strike against 19 shoe
companies at Lewiston and -Auburn. eanwhile officials of the National Labor Relations Board will continue hearings. in the strike cases this week, and may question the jailed men and other C. I.

O. leaders have served 26 days of their six months. Mr. Kovner said that pending decision on the writ of error, he*would seek their freedom on bail, arguing ‘that a flagrant injusticé would be ‘done if the courts reversed the conviction after the sentences had ‘been completed. - ’
