MOSCOW, April 14.—(P— Russian testimony to support charges
of bribery and sabotage was presented Friday at the trial of six
British engineers accused of these high crimes against the Soviet
state.
One witness told of taking a bribe of $1,500 from L. C. Thorn-

by William H. MacDonald, another of the accused, to deliver plans

Charles Nordwell, had paid him $2,500 and given him a fur coat
to damage a turbine at the Ivanovo power plant.

the house of representatives
cracked a sharp whip over the

Led by Tom Anglin, its
speaker, the house’s action

the house Tuesday. 64 to 36, and tied

Bales Tax Way Cleared
Shouting their "aye*,” the house
adopted without dissent a motion to
consider no more revenue measure*
after Friday. The action aent a select
senate committee scurrying to Gover-
nor Murray's office to work out a com-
promise on the 2 percent general sales
tax bill.
As the committee emerged at noon.
Sen W. P Morrison, El Reno, original
sponsor of a "selective sales tax”
passed by the senate last week an-
nounced the committee would recom-
mend immediate passage of the 2 per-
cent general sales levy passed by th*
house with only two amendments.
Talk of necessity for a special ses-
sion. which filled the capitol corridor*
after early action of the houae on ad-
journment. was quieted considerably
following the senate committee's con-
ference with Governor Murray which
cleared the way for passage of the
sales tax.
Murray Outlines Program
While the legislature waa hurrying
to whip revenue measures into final
shape and get ready for final ad-
journment. Governor Murray Friday
took rapid action on measures on hi*
desk and expressed his views on pend-
ing major legislation and the possi-
bility of a special session.
He indicated the sales tax will be
passed to conform with his view*,
predicted passage of a cigaret tax bill.
He said that if these major measure*
were speeded through it was probable
that final adjournment of the four-
teenth session would come by mid-
week and that there probably would
not be necessity for a special session
before December.
"By November or December we will
know where we are; then if the reve-
nues do not come kn aa expected, it
may be a special aeasion wUl be nec-
essary, I would not call one before
December," he Mid.
Against Old-Age Pension
Murray announced he has vetoed
the homestead exemption bill; de-
clared his opposition to old age pen-
sion legislation; made clear he op-
poses the 61.250.000 weak school aid
bill jassed by the houae Friday morn-
ini Mid he would veto the chain store
His objections to the homestead ex-
emption blU are that it (a unconsti-
tutional, that it would disrupt the
finance* of local governments and
schools, and that such a law would
be highly susceptible to fraud.
Aa to the proposal for old age pen-
sion legislation, he said he was op-
posed to it, although he favors old
age security.
“By putting the revenue from the
sales tax into the common school
fund, passing a cigaret tax law to re-
