Report TO Governor.

Report 10 SOVcrHOF,
SACRAMENTO, Cal, May 49,
Singing denunciation of the campaign
of the Industrial Workers of the
World at San Diego and an even more
severe denunciation of the vigilantes
of that city whom he calls "unciviliz-
ed disturbers,'' are the features of a
ten thousand word report on San
Diego conditions. sent today to Gov
ernor johnson by Harris Weinstock,
appointed as a commissioner to inves-
tigate the San Diego labor troubles.
Weinstock's report scores District
Attorney Utley, of San Diego county
for Indifference to the reign of law
lessness. He quotes the federal sta
tutes and practically recommends that
each member of the San Diego wig
imprisoned for not more than ten
years and should be subject to for
feiture of all the privileges of an
American citizen.
"He, has in the eyes of the Jaw"
said Weinstock of the San Diego wig
ilantes, made himself criminal
far greater criminal than those whom
he brands as anarchists, revolutions
ists.' 'dynamiters' and the scum of
the earth.
In this connection Weinstock's re-
port quotes from an address recently
made in San Diego by Superior Judge
w. A. Sloane of that city. Sloane
said:
in this day and land of initiative
referendum and recall, there IS no ex-
cuse for organized disobedience and
defiance of the enforcement of law;
no justification by the right of revolu
/ ton, and no one should attempt revo
luton who is not ready to accept the
Ipenalty Of outlawry, which attaches tc
unsuccessful revolution. But another
thing would urge with equal earnest
ness is the duty of those who enforce
the law to act within the law. Nc
grayer crime against society can be
committed than lawless act commit
/ ed in the name of the law against g
/ ilawbreaker.'
"vigilaptes' and police. his witnesses
declared, We're guilty of more thar
one murder in the brutal handling o.
the I, w. VS.. who the commissioner
indicates, whatever the Justice of theil
cause, had placed no mans life IL
| jeopardy.
Weinstock's report forther declare:
'sthe police department OF San Diego
has gone beyond its legal limitations
in forbidding and preventing men ant
women from holding street meetings.
