This suggested to most Moscowites that Yagoda may not have his confession-spouting day in court as a "Trotskyist," may simply be shot by the Ogpu. The Old Bolshevik who knows most about Soviet law is Eugene Bronislavovich Pashukanis, Vice-Commissar of Justice, Director of the Institute of Soviet Construction & Law, editor of The Soviet State, law journal, and author of the Soviet Union's chief standard works on jurisprudence used in its law schools.

Last June the Trotskyist Communists of the U. S. merged with the Thomasist Socialists. Normally benign, Mr. Thomas becomes vehement if given opportunity to deny "the canard" that perhaps Trotsky and Stalin are not altogether sincere undoers of each other's work.
