THE DON BASIN - TRIAL:
FARCE OF SOVIET JUSTICE.
DEATH SENTENCES FOR "CLASS ENEMIES."
BY DR. EDOUARD LUBOFY (A Russian Barrister, and the Leading Authority on
Soviet Russia)].
The longest trial on record in Soviet Russia has ended, as was expected, in wholesale death sen staged--the whole proceedings were tences. The trial, spectacularly broadcast--was meant to impress and to warn the outside world,.
as well as to " demonstrato Soviet might."
Owing to the implication of Ger- man engineers sent by their firms to supervise work undertaken in the Soviet coalfields, the case became of international" interest, and the Soviets did their utmost to sho*. off their "justice." Without the three Germans the remaining 30 Russian engineers would have been unceremoniously despatched with all the haste possible. A meeting of the "Collegium of the O.G.P.U." would have been convened at the headquarters of the Secret Terrorist Police and the prisoners would
have been shot.
Reduced to its lowest possible terms, the case is typically Bolshe- vik and ridiculously simple. The 0.G.P.U., finding nothing to do, "discovered a plot against the Soviets which they stated WILS directed and financed from abroad by the former owners of the Russian

any case of concrete damage, but we can prove that these people were engineers formerly in the employ of the owners of the con- fiscated mines; we can prove that some of them were capitalists and therefore we must shoot them and we are justified in shooting them. This actually is a summary of the speech for the prosecution. The question of criminal acts was of no interest to the Dictatorship, and as the defence rightly pointed out, the evidence showed quite clearly that instead of damaging the mines these people were responsible for increasing the output of coal." The court apparently considered this point, and came to the core clusion that death sentences were prisoners might have committed the acts they were accused of having committed had the 0.G.P.U. not discovered the plot.-Daily Mail.
