Special to Gateway by United Press)
 NEW YORK, April 1. - Freed of the charge, in Uncle Sam's federal indictment, that she sent vile and obscene matter through the mails in her birth control propaganda maga- zine, "The Woman Rebel" Mrs. Margaret Sanger left here today to visit and organize birth control soci- cities among the women of all the large cities in the United States.
 Mrs. Sanger is on her way now to Chicago, where she will conduct meet ings of women, make speeches about birth control and organize a society of women to perpetuate birth control propaganda after she has gone on to other places. Mrs. Sanger will travel west to the coast cities and then east again by another route.
 Mrs. Sanger hopes, by stirring up the interest of American wives and mothers, to make their influence cause the repeal of state and federal laws prohibiting the dissemination of birth control information.
 In cities where there are no restric- tions of this kind Mrs. Sanger hopes to establish clinics, similar to birth control clinics in European cities, where women of the working dis tricts can apply for instruction in birth control. In addition to nurses who can instruct in birth control, these clinics will have a staff that will Seach the care of infants.
 Mrs. Sanger said before she depart ed today that no legislative power in the world can keep the women of America from learning and practicing birth control:
 Because" she added, Cit is the logical and sensible and humane thing to do, law or no law.
 "No woman should be compelled to bring baby into the world unless sne is physically fitted to properly endow
