ASKS DEMOCRATS
 QUIT CONTENTION
Massachusetts hin Says South Should Repudiate Sen. Heain

Boston. Jan. .5 UP)-Massa- chusetts democrats would refuse to attend the national democratic con- vention unless Senator Heflin were definitely repudiated by southern democrats, under proposal by Francis Campbell. prominent Massa- chusetts democrat.
 "NattonaI Disgrace"
 "Now is the time to act in the matter Of this national disgrace, " said Campbell. I've Massachusetts democrats have right to know whether Heflin speaks for himself alone or whether other democrats from the south are willing to see him go unrepudiated. This issue cannot be lodged any longer. 1t was lodged in the senate when certain southern senators forced the repu- diation of Hefin from the caucus resolution of the confidence in Sen ator Robinson before they would vote for it.
 silence Not Enough
 When man calling himself a democratic leader and a democratic senator insults and defames the dearest possession of millions of democrats, l want to know what other democratic leaders think about it. Their silence is not enough. ] de- mand they go on record"
 Campbell said the question is q far greater one than Governor smiths candidacy. and he added that Smith woul1 not accept an offer to lead a party with any such section in 1t.
 ''I am going 10 ask that all candi- dates for places on the delegation from Massachusetts pledge them selves not 10 attend or have any part in the Houston convention un- less Heflin's case is settled in ad- vance of the meeting" Campbell concluded.

The Mental HYGIENE Bunk

and over-sensitive; he worries, day
dreams, loses the power to concen-
trate and becomes a burden to in
dustry" DR.. Hamill said. But you
don't find the learned doctor discover
ing any fault in industrial conditions,
do you?
He continues "Why does a worker
kick? or suffer other forms of men,
tai and emotional disturbances that
cause many losses of millions of dol
lars annually" So if you kick,
you're just simply cookoo, that's all!
1t is to be noted that where Mental
Hygiene" flourishes the strongest is
in the New England industrial CEN
tiers, and that there are more un-
fortunate victims locked up in the
wretchedness of asylums there than
anywhere else in America.
Workers, beware of the Lunacy
Trust! 1t comes hand-in-hand with
industrial exploitation. 1t grabs little
children for child labor to compete
with adult labor. 1t wakes fat on the
plight of our gassed and shell-shocked
soldiers, and now through the laws
it is passing everywhere it can grab
you if you are dissatisfied and kick
about the conditions under which you
are forced to work!
