Carlson accuses Louedau
As Slayer

With the announcement that Earl
Loveday is coming back to Kenosha to
face charges of robbery and murder
1t is interesting to recall what his pal
Carl 0. Carlson, now serving a life term
In the state prison at Waupun, had to
say about him. Carlson intimated in q
signed confession that it was Loveday
who fred the shot which killed Tony
Pingatore on the morning Of March /
last. Carlson said in a part of his con
fession:
"He started down Sheridan
Road; when we got as far as the
cemetery, Loveday asked the driv-
er how much gas he had. He said,
enough to 60 as far as Zion City.
We stopped the car and agreed to
60 back to some garage for gas.
The driver was ordered to take the
wheel and drive to some garage.
He drove US to the Sheridan Road
Garage and stopped in front Of it.
The man in charge came out and
we told him we wanted gas. Love-
day, the driver, and myself got out
of the machine, so the seat could
be lifted to put the gas in the
tank. The driver went in front of
the machine and pulled the choke,
stopping the engine. He then went
into the garage and Loveday fol-
lowed him, holding gun at his
back in such manner that IL was
impossible for anyone to see it. I
stood outside on watch. I heard a
shot and turned toward the door
just as the driver was coming out
and Loveday in back of him. Love
day jumped into the machine. The
driver and the garage man beat
it,
Carlson may be brought from The
state prison at Waupun as witness
against Loveday if it is necessary te
have his testimony. Ever since his ar.
rest, Carlson has shown a willingness
to aid the officials and when he went
off to prison he left promise to aid in
getting Loveday. Later he turned over
property which he had bought with the
money and bonds stolen from the vaults
of the Brass company and it is declared
hn oh -
the officers in many ways.
Ioveday Admitted Guilt
Loveday, before his sensational es
cape from the Kenosha Jail on the
night of November 23rd last, had made
many statements in regard to the rob
berry of the vaults of the Brass com
pany and the murder of Pingatore. Al
the time of his escape, he was unde,
promise to the chief of police and the
district attorney to go into court and
plead guilty to a charge of being an
accessory before the fact to the murder
of Pingatore. The warrant charging
him with this offense had been issued
on the day before his sensational break
for liberty and he was to have been
arraigned in court on the day following
the escape. Loveday in his MANY ad
missions to the police and district at.
torney repeatedly declared that he did
not kill Pingatore. He admitted all of
the charges which had been made
against him in connection with the rob.
berry and the murder.

TO S0ClALIZE GERMANY
IN TEN YEARS Is PLAN
Industries Will Be Run By
Community, But Change to
Be Gradual
BY Franz Lehnhof,

UNITED Press Staff Correspondent
Berlin-(By Mail)-The whole in
dustrial specialization problem, which
caused such a furry after the "revo-
lution," has gradually concentrated
until now it is centered around the
specialization Of the coal mines. Form
ulation of a specialization bill is now
entrusted to Committee of A."
under the ReichsWirtschaftsr 1t is
believed this committee will find a
middle way between the so-called Led
erer plan (full, immediate .socializa-
tion) and the Rathenau plan (sociali-
zation gradually within period of
80 years.. Investigation indicates
that the majority of the German
workmen stand behind the idea of
full specialization of the mines. There
can be no doubt that it would be
easy to throw the torch Of a new gen.
eral strike among the ranks Of the
miners were the government to seek
to sidestep at this time.
The workmen are becoming tired of
much talk about socialization and lit
tie action. But, everybody concern
ed is finding it difficult to put into
practice a real scheme of either full
or partial specialization.
A clear proposal has come only
from the former first director of the
Thyssen concern, Bergassessor Hor-
ten. Horten, organizer Of the great
works at Helterdingen, one Of the
biggest plants in the world, has cre-
ated the enmity of the capitalists and
won the friendship of the working
circles through his schemes. Horten
contends that coal specialization done
is insufficient and even possible. He
would socialize a number of branch
es. His plan contemplates making
one great factory organization out of
a number of kinds of plants in the
Ruhr district and placing this under
control Of the community at large.
With this great factory organization
as basis, he would add other lines
from time to time, until at the end
of, say ten years, the whole country
had been socialized. He holds that
coal alone cannot be socialized be-
cause of the fact that it is intertwined
with other lines like coal and steel.
He would socialize only industries
which are fully developed and whose
existence is indispensable to the COM
mon welfare. Lines which require es-
pecial inventive talent or research
which would be fostered more by in
dividual initiative than otherwise
he would leave unsocialized. In other
words, he would tale only works
from which no new progress can be
expected. Coal, iron and the like
have, in general, reached their high
point in development. And, many in
dustries, he claims, do not want to
progress further; in fact, they buy
up patents and scrap them rather
than utilize them.
While the specialization people are
busy with their schemes, a great
massing of capital is occurring, takin
