philosophy Of the past. a
The democratic leader conceded that
the negotiations leading up to the
treaty were carried on in Secrecy
but argued that such a course was
necessary in view Of the peculiar cir

that some Chicago labor unions are
ruled and controlled by professional
criminals. Chief Justice Seaman OF
the criminal court today charged a
special grand jury to investigate what
he termed gross miscarriages OF JUS

here.
"Now we have reached a time in
Chicago when we are to determine
once and for ALL" he said, whether
this band Of gunmen is going to rule
this community and destroy law and
order in our midst, or whether this
city, calling itself the most wonderful
city in the world, is able to master
these miscreants Just as it mastered
the anarchists"
Judge Scanlan declared that "a vast
conspiracy existed among the labor
leaders to place themselves above the
law.
"The reign OF terror created by
these labor criminals has so intinai-
dated Chicago citizens that species
of yellow men has sprung up" he said.
