No. ! haven't seen the Killy Lou
Bird" replied Billy Bunny to the
Woodpeckcr, who you remember
asked him this question in the last sto-
~ And then the little rabbit began to
sing:
a wish l knew where the lollypops
grew,
And the 'licious cones Of ice cream.
1t must be land that IS lovely and
grand
I'm sure it's only a dream,
But it heard that killy Lou Bird
Lived over in Lollypop Land.
I'D hippity hop and never would stop
Until | shook him by the hand
And after this little song Billy Bun
ny hopped away but before he went
he opened his knapsack and took ou'
little china egg and gave it to the
woodpeCkcr when you darn your
socks put this in the toe" said the lit
tie rabbit. That's what my mother
does" and would you believe 1t, the
Woodpecker darned three dozen and
seventeen pairs OF socks that very
night without breaking the china egg
Wasn't that wonderiuN
BY and by. after he had gone for
maybe a mile or four or more, Billy
Bunny saw his dear kind Uncle Lucky,
and wasn't he glad And so am |,
for | love to write about Mr. Lucky
Lcithindioot. for he's such a nico old
gentleman rabbit don't yuu think so'
And what do YOU suppose Uncle
Lucky was doing Why, he was buy
ing little United States flags tFom a
man on the street and then giving them
TO lots Of boys and girls. For Uncle
Lucky was very fond Of his country
and thought the Red White and Blue
| the most beautiful flag in the world
And as soon as Billy Bunny got one
he said. Lets get into the Luckymo-
| bile and 60 for a ride" And before
the old gentleman rabbit got in he
pinned a great big American flag on
the back of the l.uckymobic and then
he drove away And just as they turned
corner the band commenced to play
Three Cheers for the Red, White and
Blue, and Uncle Lucky too"
And then Of course Uncle Lucky un-
tied his blue polkadot handkerchief and
took off his old wedding stoyenipe hat
and waval it in the air, and after tha,
they went along for maybe three miles

published report bearing the sigma
ture of John 3. Densmore, Federal
director general Of employment. that
MONEYS conviction was irregular,

According to an announcement by
r. w. Burton, president of the coun-
Gil, that body will oppose any strike
intended as protest against Moneys
conviction or execution. The council
represents 10000 workers in the Bay
district.
The grand jury is to meet tonight.
District Attorney Fickert. against
whom the published charges are d.
rected, ard operatives employed by
Densmore are expected to testify.
The committee of 10 appointed by
the San Francisco Labor Council to
plead with Governor Stephens for
reversal Of MONEYS conviction was
to arrange q meeting date with the
governor today.
AS the result of an assault last
night on Fremont Older, editor of the
San Francisco Call and Post by dis
trict Attorney Charles NJ. Fickert,
Chief of Police White today assigned
two detectives to gualv the editor.
The Call recently published long re-
port of alleged crookedness in civil
and criminal cases which involved
Fickert and others. Mr.. Older today
gave a statement to The Associated
Press containing his version of the
resignation Of F. w. Henshaw, from
the state supreme court.
The Henshaw matter was dealt
with in the printed report to Secret
airy Wilson. signed by J. E. Dens-
more, director-general Of employ
ment. Mr.. Older said "In replying
to the revelations in the Densmore
report concerning himself, F. w.
Henshaw said The fair case was de-
clared 20 years ago. Years after its
decision was reelected to the sup
RENE bench and served II years OF
VIC tNCiNc lciHlE IeSlSjIlS uIl-
der no compulsion or agreement with
Mr.. Older or anybody else
"Mr. Henshaw's memory is at
fault. A short time before Henshaw's
resignation was made public, he
asked me for an interview. After
some preliminary remarks to the
effect that he was innocent, he said
he was an old man, broke, and the
publication of the Dingee story
would end in tragedy. If you will
agree not to publish the Dingee
story 7 will resign from the supreme
court, ne said. L can give as rea-
son that I want to go into war work
and I have written n great deal on
the subject In addition to that I
want to help you in the Mooney
case was Eery much moved by
Henshaw's plea and replied Well.
Judge. I am getting on toward the
end Of life myself and 'haven'e any
desire to wound anyone unnecessar-
lily and it seems to me that II you
do as you say, you will do that which
is sufficient I don's know what more
you could do A few days later the
resignation was made public"
