BIRTH CONTROL ANNOYS

BIRTH CONTROL ANNOYS

David Hirshfield, Commissioner OF
Accounts, sitting at his desk yester-
day with historical documents to the
right of him and birth, control data to
the left, said that his sole object in
investigating the police raid or the
Town Hall birth control meeting is to
find out what was going on at the
time the police interfered.
The Commissioner then issued sub
psnas for witnesses wanted by Emory
II. Buckner, counsel for the committee
% nine citizens at whose request
Mayor Hylan ordered an investigation.
Mr.. Buckner complained at tie end of
the hearing on Thursday that he de-
sired very much the presence of Capt.
Thomas Donohue of the West Forty
seventh street station, who broke up
the meeting, supposedly at the request
of Archbishop Hayes; Patrolmen
Thomas Gaine and William Davis,
who arrested Mrs. Margaret Sanger
and Miss Mary Windsor. and various
court officials and attaches. Officials
ut the hearing before Chief Inspector
William J. Lahey, which resulted in
the arrest of Mrs. Juliet Barrett
Rublee, also were desired as witnesses
by Mr.. Buckner.
IT would have sent for these people
sooner" said Commissioner Hirshfield,
''but I only arrived late Wednesday
from Albany and l didn't have time
before the hearing the next day"
HirshfieId Admits Arrests.
Tn complying with Mr.. Buckner's re-
quest the Commissioner doubted If the
testimony OF these witnesses could be
very important or could add anything
to the progress of the inquiry. He
said he was willing to admit that Mrs.
Sanger and Miss Windsor were ar
rested at the Town IfaI meeting and
that Mrs Rublee was arrested later
at the Investigation conducted by
Inspector Lahey at Police Head
quarters.
Everybody knows they were arrested
and released said Commissioner Hrsh-
field. WhatS the use OF having tncm
here to tell US something we already
know? They were released. so where
does their complaint come in?
"KnowwhatImean?"
but don't you think. Commissioners.
that they might be able to tell you
who told them the law was being vio-
lated at the Town Hall meeting. and
that they might be able to shed some
light on whether the right of free
speech was being violated?"
'Oh. they will be heard I'll right"
said the Commissioner. Now about
this free speech stuff 1t is easy for
the editor of a great newspaper to
write about free speech. l can do that
myself / can write editorials on free
speech that will make you cry.
