All aliens will be moved out ot I.uzerne county and deported, and nil persons of foreign birth who have failed to apply for citizen papers, after living here for a reasonable period, will bo relieved of their jobs on relief projects if the pl.ans of the Service Men's I^eague ot Luzerne county, which have been in prepara¬ tion tor the past three months, are carried to conclusion. A resolution covering the Issue was preaented and adopted at a meeting of the league In Concordia Hall.
The league has proof In Its pos¬ session that a large number of non- cltlzens, many ot whom nre without dependents, are holding jobs on Ke¬ llef projects, while full-blooded Americans with Largo families are, the officers state, "tramping the streets In search of work."
Oflicers of the league stated last night that, in their opinion, there is a fairly largo group ot aliens In I.uzerne who entered the county illegally and not under the quota lystem adopted by the Federal gov- trnmenl some years ago, and are, hercfore, subject to deportation. These ofllcers call upon all organi¬ sations and citizens In this area to ¦o-opcrate with the Service Men's League In assisting In tho discovery of Illegal aliens and then take tho necessary steps to have them re¬ moved from the country. Any In¬ formation forwarded to the league will, the ofllcers say, be treated as strictly confidential.
The removal of illegal aliens ia the first step of the league. After that, attention will be devoted to the Emorgcncy Relief organization of the county to try to learn whether ways and means cannot be found to have the Works Division give preference to citizens of the country when names are aliout to lie selected for the various projects starting in every community In the county. Mr. Joel tilbson. Ihe new Administrator, will bo asked to co¬ operate and open his flies for a complete  checkup.
Ofllcers ot Service Men's League, after a preliminary Investigation, were appalled to learn that some foreign-born, residing In the coun¬ try for more than two decades, have never taken the trouble lo apply for citizenship In the land that has provided them a livelihood nnd were astonished to dKscover that a i-'ood many ot them hold jobs that (Continued  on  Xcxt  I'iigc)

(Copyright, 1934, by United Press) Moscow, Dec. 29—A plot to over¬ throw the Soviet rcgimo by foreign military Intirvenllon was charged tonight in an official aiinounccmont revealing the execution ot Leonid MlcoUev and 13 others Ior tlielr part In the assassination of Sergei Kirov, Soviet leader In Lcnlngnul.
The announcement brought to 117 the list ot those officially listed as having been executed in reiirisal for the assassination in a drive not only againsi those actually Impli¬ cated, but others regiirded as poten¬ tial enemies ot the Soviet regime.
It was definitely established that Leo Kamenev nnd Gregory Zinoviev, formerly world-famous pioneer Bol¬ sheviks and later "Opposltionisls," were not .among those executed, de¬ spite the free mention ot llieir names as having Inspired the plot by their "wrong"  ideas.
The official atatement on tho proceedings of the Military Col¬ legium of tho Supreme Court, which heard the case In Leningrad, said:
"The session establlslied lliat from among former memliers of the Zinoviev anti-Soviet group was a secret counter-revolutionary, terror¬ istic organization formed In Lenin¬ grad, In which the accused partici¬ pated.
Terrorists Named "The group was headed by the so-called 'Leningrad Center' con¬ sisting of Katulynov, Sliatskyw, Runilnakzcv. Mandcrstam. Ml siil- kov. Levin, Sosnitsky and Micoliev. The underground counti r-revolu- tlonar.v work ot this group became especially active In 1933-34, whin, having lost all hope of support liy the masses, they started melhoila ot terroristic struggle. They had In view the idea that by terroristc acts directed against the Icadcis ot Soviet power, they could dlsirgiin- Izo the leadership of the Soviet government and so change the present policy toward the so-caTed Zlnovlev-Trotsky   platform.
"The session established that the secret terroristic counter-revolu- llon,ary group, having no hope ot realizing its criminal purposes ex¬ cept by lerrori.stic actions inside the country, was aiming at armed Inter¬ vention by foreign stules.
"Under Instructions of tbls group, Mlchliev frequently visited (the names of the consulate and country are omitted), nt Leningrad, with whom he carried on negotiations re¬ garding iiossilile forms of .assistance and received from liiin for the coun¬ ter-revolutionary terroristic group 5,000 roubles.
"The session established that the accused, being participants In a ae¬ cret counter-revolutionary terroris¬ tic group, on direct Instructions and under tlie Immediate leader.sbip of the terroristic group calli'd tlie 'Len¬ ingrad Center.' prepared and com¬ mitted the Dec. 1 murder of Kirov In the building of the Smolyn In¬ stitute."
The court's sentence was regard¬ ed as concluillng tiie cd\'criinienl*s official punislinienl of those con¬ sidered directly involved in the Kirov murder, altliough there was no aa.surance that those suspected of similar vlewa would not be banished  or  Imprisoned.
Want Suspects Named London, Dec. 29 — VI' — Foreign consuls In I^enlngrad were reported tonight to be planni 'g a demand for Information as to the Identity of the consul.ate accused in olllciiil Soviet announcement ot being im¬ plicated in the assassination, of Sergei  Kirov.

LAW VIOLATIONS SMOOTHED DOWN FOR AD PATRONS
Proceeds Of Fund Raising Are Set To The Use Of Magistrates And Squires In Dc' feat Of Measures To Reduce Fees Or Rip Offices Out Of The Legislative Setup
COURT CRITICISM LAUNCHED
On the fourth floor of Bennett building on Public Square Is a lit¬ tle office that does not attract much attention from those who visit the building. It It were not for the sign on the door, a casual observer would assume It was a law office, as there are many of these on that floor.
This little office, known as head¬ quarters ot the Magistrates Asso- cl.atlon of Northeastern I'ennsyl¬ vanla does a thriving business, a business running Into many thous¬ ands of dollars a year. The suc¬ cess of this business depends solely on thoso sensitive citizens who be¬ lieve the minor Judiciary la too Im- portant a factor to be overlooked In times of legal trouble.
The Magistrates Aasociation of Northeastern Pennaylviinia was or¬ ganized by M. L. Moaler ot Allen town. He Is the promoter and evi¬ dently a very successful one, as the association under his direction has flourished financially and each month a magazine Is pubilshed, ded¬ icated to the organization's wel¬ fare.
The Squires—and there nre many scattered through the boroughs and townships in Nortlieastern Penn- sylvanl.a—contributed two dollars j each as a membersliip fee. They are all a big, friendly family, well organized to meet any effort tho legislature might take to oust them from office. It Is nlso a pro¬ tection, they say, from any Inter¬ ference on the part of the Legisla¬ ture to cut their fees or to curb their powers.
Tracing   Its Powers
A reporter fi>r The Sunday Inde¬ pendent started out yesterday to get .a line on the organiz.alion and Its relation to the general iniblic. par¬ ticularly in connection wiih Its evident prosperity. Tho flrst stroll was Into tlio bui-lncsa district on Northampton street, where there Is considerable parking trouble. The reporter complained about the diffi¬ culties to one ot tlje business men and spoke of the chiince of violat¬ ing traffic laws, particularly if one has a fleet of trucka. It w:is su','- gcatcd tliat If we belonged to the Magistrates Association It would help in case of traffic violations. This iilea was carried out by means of a telephone conversatlcn with Alderman Mathers, who haa an offlee on Public Square and who I.s president of the Magistrates As-io- clatlon of Northeastern Pennsyl¬ vania.
".\lderman Mnthera, this is Joe Stevens speaking, head of a truck¬ ing concern In Brooklyn. New York, and I would like to join your or¬ ganization."
His reply was this: "Go to the Bennett Building, where the head¬ quartera are."
Our next queation was: "Who will I talk to?"
".\ny one," was the answer.
Then the rejiorter timidly asked: "What will  It cost me?'
"Anywhere  from   $10   up.    It  de¬
pends on the amount of space it takes."'
A Trade In Favors
The apace referred to evidently is In the publication Issued monthly from Allentown by the Magistrates' Association. The space rates, quot¬ ed by Alderman Mathers, president of the association, are from $10 up. No  limit,  evidently.
The next telephone call was to Squire Jamea Morgans of Kingston, aecretnry of the organization. Ha admitted after the solicitation of ad¬ vertisements, the advertisers wero favored by squires. Jimmie, who Is noted for his frankness, mentioned that favora were handed out. He also stated th.at the organization was n flne protection to the minor judiciary in regard to nny adverse legi.'ilatlon presented during sessions of the Leftlslature.
Again tbe nuestlon of where *li8 money goes after collections for ad¬ vertising sp.acG, came to the report¬ er's mind and he gently aaked the question.
"Squire, where does the money go?"
His anawer was: "For protection against adverse legislation." and with that answer he referred us to Alderman Matners, president of tha organization.
Thc soliciting Is done through Or¬ ganizer Mosler of the Magistrates Association. Some ot the soliciting is done by Alderman Matners, par¬ ticularly among concerns who have trucka. There Is a subtle line of argument in connection with the so¬ licitation ot advertisements. Par¬ ticular stress is placed tiiion the Im¬ portance of the organization 'n dealing wilh motor violations. Tha telling sales point Is "You never know when you need a fiivor." Invader   Meets  Trouble
The organization, however. U sometimes       victimized. Several
years ago .a young man calling him¬ self A. Caplan ot Philadelphia aought a position with the associa¬ tion. He was not successful. How- ever, the methods of the organiza¬ tion appealed to him and he pro¬ ceeded on hla own account to do busine.sa with some of the business concerns. He managed to collect more than a hundred dollars befora he was jilaced under arrest and committed to jail by the magis¬ trates organization. His mother came hero, engaged an att*,>rney and when thc case was presenied to tha grand jury It was Ignored. An ef¬ tort was made to get the money from him, by the organization, but tailed.
The reporter then started on a new ansle In regard to the Magis¬ trates' Association. Ten squires were called In regai'd to whether repre.'^entatlves of tho association Interceded In cases dealing with mo¬ tor violations. Only one squire an¬ swered In the afflrmative and that one was located In Luzerne borough. He mentioned that Mr. Mosler, or¬ ganizer of the association, had spoken to him In regards to a casa (Continued   on   Next   Page*

Ev"Ti as the rescue plane went Intc into the air. Stale Troopers, farmers and National Guards waded through huge anow drifts seeking the lost plane. The lost fliers, un¬ injured In tbe crasli which wrecked the plane, sat huddled nround a flra near the wreckage, hopeful that some of the scores ot searcher* would see their signal. They Erneat Dryer, pilot, his brolher. Dale, co- nllot. botli of Cleveland: R. W. Ilandhiook of Waahington. and Jack H. Brown, a regulur pilot, of Boston, who was u passenger on the plane.
