EXPECTED FINDINGS
AND PROBABLE SENTENCES
(Received this day at 1.18 p.m.) MOSCOW, April 17
Vyshinsky ended by declaring that all the accused, except- Gregory were, guilty under article 58, carrying penalties np to shooting, but their failure must be mitigatorily considered.
It is surmised locally that Gregory will 'be acquitted, Macdonald and Thornton sentenced to ten- years’, Ulonkhou.se to three years’ imprisonment, and 'Cushny and Xordwell bound over; als 0 that Gusev and Lobanov will he sentenced to death an 1 otlmr Russian accused, to varying term, 5 of imprisonment. The sentences of the Britons might be commuted to exile, since the Soviet is obviously anxioeo to hear the last of th 0 international aspects of the affair.
