after it was decided to keep the jury locked up throughout the hearing, which will last for weeks, New jurors chosen today were E. B. Doran, retired cigar dealer; Arthur De Clark, a furnace salesman, and James Smith, a real estate dealer, all of South Bend. Both Sides Consent

Both sides consented to the change, but opening statements were not repeated for the benefit of the three new jury members. Lisle R. Beardslee of Bradford, N. J., secretary of General Motors, was the first witness to testify as the noon recess was called. The defendants—General Motors, three affiliates and 17 organization officers—are charged with forcing dealers to finance car sales through the General Motors Acceptance Corp., and affiliates and hence hindering interstate commerce.

Coercion Charged Holmes Baldridge, chief prosecutor, - in his opening: statement

charged that dealers were threat-

ented with loss .of . their dealership unless they financed cars through the acceptance corporation and that dealers weré discriminated against and cars held up at the factory or the dealer overloaded with cars unless his sales were financed through G. M. A. C. . "The defense said the sole purpose of the G. M. A. C. was to aid in selling General Motors cars. Ernest Ballard said that before 1819 when the acceptance corporation was organized, several finance companies abused the finance system by exorbitant rates which more than offset any reductilons manufacturers were able to make in their prices.

Russian demands—merely to negotiate and to report back to the Government. - $25 There was some anxiety as to the presence of at least one unidentified warship near the Aaland Islands. It seemed to be observing shipping; as it had not sought to molest any vessel. The area is important to Finland because it is on the route to Sweden and authorities sought |} to identify the warship.

Bridge Halts Tanks

Reports from Tallinn, Esthonia, || said that Russian troops had begun to enter the country under the new “friendship” pact and were expected to take over Friday the air and naval bases conceded to Russia. A later dispatch said, however, that the march had been halted because a bridge over the Narva River was too weak to support the Russian tanks. Some reports said 20,000 Russian |} troops would enter Esthonia. Others put the figure at 25,000, There are only 10,000 men in Esthonia’s Army. It was said also that the first contingents of 80,000 Russian troops were moving into Latvia and had been granted bases at Windau, Libau and Pirgas.

Blackout Ordered

The Finnish Government sought to prepare for any development, The first blackout in Helsingfors history was ordered for tonight. Government circles said, however, that military authorities had no knowledge of any unusual concentration of Soviet troops near the Finnish frontier. Many divisions, it was pointed out, normally are quartered in and around Leningrad. - There have, however, been Russian troop movements from Leningrad toward Murmansk, about 50 miles east of the northern Finnish frontier, it was said.

Lithuanians Reluctant

Kaunas reported that- Lithuanian deiegates who went to Moscow, returned this morning. The Lithuanian Cabinet had met last night and was believed to have accepted Russian proposals, which included territorial concessions to Lithuania in the Vilna area. Russia seeks irom Lithuania, principally, transit rights across the country between Russia and Libau, Latvia, but it has been reported that Russia also seeks air bases in Lithuania, near German Memel and East Prussia. It was reported at Kaunas that Lithuania would receive a large part of the Vilna area, taken from

from Poland by Russia. Vilna City would be allotted to Lithuania, it was reported. Sweden last night announced mobilization of 20,000 men, bringing the army to a total of 100,000. Classes already in training, and technicians due to be released Oct. 15, will be kept under the colors. .
