CARRYING RED
CARD Is FELONY
Governor Hart Says the Present
Statutes are Adequate for
Conviction of Reds

That laws on the statute books of
Washington are sufficient to secure
convictions of members of the /. w.
w. and other radical organization, is
the opinion of Governor Louis F. Hart.
In replying to requests for special
session of the legislature, he says:
First, after having familiarized
yourselves with the provisions Of the
criminal anarchy statute sections 1862
to 1858, which has been construed in
a recent decision of the supreme court
Estate VS.. Lowery, 104 Wash, 520) !;
the criminal syndicalism statute, chap
ter 174 Of the 1919 session laws and
the sabotage statute, chapter 173 of
the 1919 session laws, cooperate with
your prosecuting attorney and peace
officers in securing evidence, which
will lead to detection and conviction
of the I. w. w. and other anarchists
in your community.
"Please bear in mind that your
prosecuting attorney is as helpless in
enforcement of the above statutes,
without the backing Of proper pub
lie opinion, as has been the case in
the enforcement Of liquor laws, which
latter fact is well known to all citi-
zens. Accordingly the governor is
most anxious that the present public
opinion shall not be allowed to die
out and be succeeded again by, a con-
dition of apathy on the part of .citi-
zens in general and particularly the
business men. ......+.,. ..-s =
"You will observe that each of the
statutes cited makes membership in
such an organization as the l. w. W..
felony. The two latter statutes
were enacted by the last session after
the Judiciary committee had examined
similar statutes of each of the states
and the federal government and the
committee, made up of the best law
yers of the state, drew those bills on
the theory that they, together with the
anarchy salute, would cover every
phase of the situation. ,- q
eff our construction of the law of
this state is right and is sustained by
the courts, it does not seem that a
special session of the legislature to
enact further laws along this line is
necessary" ,,.n. 60. .

THOUSAND JACKS
: ARE MARKETED
Good Hauls are Made in Rabbit
Drives at Fruitvale and
PaScO.

Kennewick lept into prominence for
"a day as a meat producer, Monday
when HOO jackrabbits were, shipped
from here to the markets of Seattle,
Spokane and Portland.
Belgian hares? No. Regular sage
brush-jumping jacks, the fellows
whose ancestors settled this country
ahead of the indians. These HOO
jacks passed to their reward in driv-
es Friday at Fruitvale and Sunday
on the Pasco side. The carcasses were
brought here and were dressed at the
slaughter house of the Kennewick
Market and shipped under the direc-
ton of Theo. H. Scheffer, of the U. S.
department. of agriculture, and County
Agent Lee M. Lampson.
While both drives were successes the
catch at Fruitvale was not as large
as it should have been. The drivers
were too few and many of the rangy
Dummies made their getaway before
the corral was reached. About three
hundred were killed. A fine haul was
made at Pasco, fully one thousand
being laid out with clubs.
While the proceeds from the sale
of the rabbits are not large they will
more than pay the expense of the drive
and the surplus will be turned into
the county form bureau fund.
Mr.. Lampson is planning three
other drives in the county. One at
Hanford, one in the Horse Heaven
and on the south Highlands.
These drives will be featured in
the movies as Fox Film camera
man has been accompanying Mr..
Scheffer.
