Mr. Ward was second engineer of the British str. Beckenham, which arrived at Vladivostok on June 18th with a cargo of salt from the Black Sea for the Soviet Mercan- tile Fleet.
Mr. Ward had been ashore ais called, dozen times at least during the three weeks prior to the incident | which resulted in his imprison- ment. During all these visits ashore, he was never questioned nor was he asked, either by word or gesture, to produce his passport. At about 11.45 p.m. on July 8th he returned to his ship and, whilst proceeding from one deck to other, he was violently palled by the back of his cost by one of the many military sentries stationed 'on board by the Soviet Govern-
ment.
An.
On the spur of the moment, Mr. Ward knocked the hand which pulled his coat away and told the Bentry, in English, to go away. At about 2 a.m., some officers of the guardship came on board and, awakened Mr. Ward. They told him that they would return later and that he should hear more about his little incident with the guard. He was brought before a tribunal, and found that his judge was a young woman, who was assisted by another young woman and a young Inan. He was given a defending solicitor who spoke a little English but there was no oficial', inter- preter. This difficulty was over- come when a man who spoke some English was brought in, voluntari. ly, from outside.
The charge against Mr. Ward was that he struck the guard and that he failed to produce his pass- port when called upon to do so.
His defence was that he had been ashore so many times before with out being accosted that he thought that all the guards were familiar with him and that there was bo necessity to show his passport. He said also that, being on board a British ship, he considered himself in England and under the laws of England and, therefore, his pass port was not required, but he was prepared to show it to anyone who asked him, by word or gesture, on shore. As to the alleged assault of the sentry, he admitted whip ping his hand away from behind
