JUDGE READY TO HELP IF OLD
RAID CASE IS REoPENED =
Judge Fisher is ready to give his
help if the police want to get at all
the facts in connection with the raid
on a disorderly fiat at 1916 Grand
blvd, Sunday morning, Aug. 10.
1t was in this fiat that the myster-
ious 81. S. Meyers of Cleveland and
w. P. Bronson of St Louis were ar
rested. Estella FRESHMAN and Doris
Lewis were dismissed without a fine
in the case. The men were soaked
$40 each.
The case attracted attention be-
cause of unusual factors. The raid
was made Sunday. Monday when
the case was called some of the files
were missing. Among the papers
that disappeared was the bond
scheduled for the two men. The
bond was signed by Alvin H. Reid,
1854 Hyde Park blvd.
At that time it was reported that
Policeman Gastineau would be trans
feTred if he went through with the
case. Some time later, before the
case was disposed of, he was trans
ferred to the motorcycle squad.

Following is the text of President Will
sons speech at the st. Louis Coliseum
yesterday:
'.Mr Chairman and Fellow Citizens:
came out into the middle west to find
something and 1 found it. 1 was told in
Washington that the middle west had a
different feeling from the portions OF the
country that lie upon either coast and
that it was Indifferent to the question Of
preparation for national defense.
ct knew enough of the middle west Of
this great continent to know that the men
who said that did not know what they
were talking about. I knew that the
spirit of America dwelt as much In this
great section of the country as in any
other section of it. and 1 knew that the
men of these parts loved the honor and
safety of America as much as Americans
everywhere loved 1t and are ready to
stand by it.
Knew How They Felt.
IT did not come to find out how you
felt or what you thought. but to tell you
what was going on. I came here in order
that there might be an absolute clarified
ton of the issues involved. of the issues
Immediately confronting US. because I. for
one, have an absolute faith in the readi-
ness of America to act upon the facts just
as soon as America knows what the
facts are.
Now the facts are very easily and
briefly stated What is the situation?
The situation is that America is at peace
with all the world and desires to remain
at peace with all the world And it is
not a shallow peace: it is a genuine peace,
based on some of most fundamental in
f1uences of international intercourse.
America is at peace with all the world
because she entertains a real friendship
for all the nations of the world. 1T Is not
as some have mistakenly supposed
peace based upon self interests. 1t is
peace based upon some of the most gen
erous sentiments that characterize the
heart. You know, my fellow citizens, that
this nation is a composite nation. 1t is
genuine friendship for all the nations
of the world, because it is drawn from all
the nations of the world. the blood OF all
the great national stock runs, and runs
red and strong, in the veins of America,
and America understands what the genu-
inc ties of friendship and affection are.
1t would tear the heartstrings of America
to be at war with any Of the great ma
tons of the world.
