Make National Drive.
Launching this drive upon nation
al scale would help to unite our pres
ent badly weakened organized forces.
1t would electrify every worker in the
industry. Each would become an or
ganizer, Striving to bring into our
ranks the hundreds Of thousands that
are not yet part of our unions.
A special organization fund should
be created upon a per capita basis Of
all organizations participating In the
drive.
A corps of organizers should be
placed In the field, maintained by and
under the direct control of the nation
al committee thru its subdivisions.
These organizers should work for
the organizing of the industry as a
whole and not merely for their parti-
cuar credit.
Only by Strengthening the unions
in the industry as a whole can every
trade be strengthened numerically,
organizationally and ideologically:
and in fighting spirit as we'll as in
fighting ability.
During the drive a low and uniform
initiation fee should be established
and a universal transfer card sys
tenn be adopted.
To actually organize the many un
organized, the existing prohIbItlve, In
itiation fee must be reduced and reg
ulated.

U. S. NOT WOBS
CAUSED DISEASE
SPREAD IN WEST
State Expert Gives Lie
to u. S. Attorney

STOCKTON, Calf, June 26. - In
an authorized interview in the Stock
ton Independent" G. H. Hecke, direc-
tor of the California State Department
of Agriculture said that the I. w. w.
was not responsible for the carrying of
the hoof and mouth disease from
Merced County to the stockyards of
Los Angeles as was charged by u. S.
District Attorney Fink. He said that
the jump was caused by the shipment
Of infected cattle. This puts the res
possibility squarely up to the federal
authorities who should have prevented
the shipment of the infected cattle.
Know Wobs Are Not to Blame
eve have no knowledge whatever of
any instance in which a member of the
I. w. w. carried or caused to be carried
the hoof and mouth disease from one
district to another" Hecke said,
"As for the possibility that the 1.
w. W. may have been responsible for
the spread of the disease from the San
Joaquin valley to Los Angeles, we
know definitely that the jump was
caused by the shipment of infected
cattle from Merced county to the stock
yards in Los Angeles"
l. w. WIS. here believe that the state
ment of district attorney Fink that
there would be a round up of I. w. WIS.
charged with spreading the hoof and
mouth disease was an attempt on his
part to cover up the carelessness of the
persons responsible for permitting the
shipment of infected cattle.
Expect Frame-ups
They do not deny the possibility of
members of the l. w. w. being arrested
and charged with carrying the disease
however. If the big lumber and ship
ping interests are to be satisfied there
must be some sort Of a new drive
against the 1. W. w. engineered. The
state criminal syndicalism law has
failed to check the growth of the or
ganization.
Chief Laughs at Bomb Story
LOS ANGELES, Calf. June 26. -
Chief of Police Vollmer laughed at the
idea that the l. w. w. intended to
bomb the morgue where 46 sailors,
victims of the explosion on the U. S. S.
Mississippi, were laid out awaiting
burial. 1t was the rumor that the
!. W. w. intended to bomb the morgue
which was used as an excuse for the
raid on the San Pedro hall of the 1.

CRIMINAL COURTROOM. CHI
CAGO, Aug. 5.-Richard Loeb has a
thoroughly diseased mind" DR..
William Healy, Boston psychiatrist,
testified at judicial hearing OF Loeb
and Nathan Leopold Jr. for murder
of Robert Franks when it was re-
sUmed today.
THAT is the conclusion I have
reached after a thorough examina-
ton Of Loeb" the psychiatrist said.
DIR. Healy testified Monday that
Leopold also is mentally diseased
and unbalanced.
His conclusion on Loeb's mental
condition, Dr. Healy said. was based
on the following reasons:
Six Reasons
l. His abnormal inner mental life.
2. His twisted emotions.
8. His lack of sympathy for others.
l. His lack of feeling for his own
misconduct.
5. His vivid fantasies
6. His pathological split person
ality.
"The fact that he carried his
vivid fantasies over into everyday
life of activity and because fesfs-un-
thinkable that a mentally normal
person would commit such a heinous
crime. 1 am even more convinced
that my conclusions are correct,
the witness said,
'I have watched their actions in
the courtroom and they only tend
to conf1r mmy opinion.
The crime is a direct result OF
diseased motivation Of Loeb's mental
life, DR.. Healy said. "Loeb's twisted
emotional life and Loeb's coming to-
geher with another abnormal per
sonality' in the person Of Leopold
caused the consummation of-the
crime" the witness said.
This most remarkable affair was
caused by the coming together OF
these two boys, each with abnormal
characters. the doctor said.
