RUSSIANS ACCUSED OF Measure Will

PLOTTING TO GIVE COUNTRY TO ENEMIES

Moscow, Mar. 2.

The indictment at the trial of 21 leading Soviets which opened to-day, was very lengthy and full of the most extraordinary allegations. For example it says that the accused, Bukharin, testified that Radek told him in 1934 that Trotsky considered that the principal chance of a bloc, formed by the Rightists and Trotskyists coming to power, was the defeat of the Soviets in a war with Germany and Japan, and that Trotsky proposed, after this defeat, to surrender the Ukraine to Germany and the Far East to Japan.
