LENIENCY EXPLAINED
MO DESIRE FOR REVENGE
SOVIET LOGIC
(Received 9th December, 1 p.m.) MOSCOW, Bth December. Explaining the reason for the commutation of the sentences, the Central Executive says that the convicted persons not only repented of their crime, but, by their testimony, had disarmed the counter-revolutionary organisation acting as the agent for the interventionist circles ruling in bourgeois France. The Soviet cannot be guided by a mere desire for revenge, particularly in relation to confessed and repen. tant criminals who have been rendered harmless.
