STIRRED BY
HOPE OF FREEDOM
FOR TOM MOONEY

NEW YORK.=(F.P.)-Labor and
radical circles in the East are talk
ing about the drive to free Tom
Mooney with new hopefulness as a
result of the impression that the
Callicotte testimony has stood up
under fire. AS a result, Theodore
Dresser, famous novelist, has gone
from New York City to take part in
the San Francisco mass meeting at
which C~allicotte tells his story.
While Dresser is not a speaker, it
is believed that his attendance at the
mass meeting will wildly portray the
interest of eastern intellectuals in
the Mooney case, and the confidence
of large numbers of people that the
Callicotte evidence has more sig
nificance than was at first thought.
1t has been learned that Callicotte's
story that he had left the suitcase
containing the bomb at the point of
the Preparedness Day explosion had
been known to those active in the
Mooney case before Callicotte told his
story, and that the witness had been
thoroughly questioned. In detail after
detail he showed accuracy and
knowledge of the situation on the
morning of the parade. He spent
hours with a Mooney representative
who knew the details intimately, and
in every case his statements checked
with the facts.
Little details about the mar on
duty in a nearby cigar store which
a framed story would have been
likely to miss and which a mere
crank would have known nothing at
all about, clicked with the facts. 1t
was obvious that Callicotte had a
story that would stand up.
When the story was first made
public it was greeted by skepticism
because there have been other sim
liar gases where cranks have come
forward with tales that brought
hopes for Mooney which were soon
dashed. His friends feared this would
be another such Ease at first.
1t is considered in the East that
there are several ways in which this
evidence could be made of practical
effect. If Governor Rolph, already
under threat of recall by farm or
CARNATIONS, can be swamped with a
demand that justice be done on the
basis of the new evidence, his po-
litical ambition may make him act.
Or a new trial on indictments still
standing against Mooney may be
ordered and the case tried over, in the
light of evidence now available. If
a verdict of not guilty was obtained,
the pressure for release would be in
tensified tremendously.
Moneys case does not depend on
the Callicotte testimony, but if that
can be substantiated it would seem
to be a final blow at the frameup
which has kept Mooney and Billings
in prison for 16 years.

Glass Finds Hoover
Somewhat Untruthful


ing President Hoover's account of
the causes of the depression and of
the Administrators treatment of
this crisis, Senator Glass Of Virginia
came close to calling the chief execu-
tive a liar, in a blistering broadcast
speech Nov. /.
''The statements made, as well as
the conclusions deduced," said Glass,
Montana labor news., 1932-11-17

ARE flagrantly contrary to the facts,
thus presenting a picture to the
American people which is far away
from the truth and which, in a vital
sense, exaggerates conditions only
that the President might magnify
his own alleged achievements in cor
recting situations and saving the
country.
ITO speak with suitable restraint.
| may say that neither Hans Chris
tian Andersen nor Karl Grimm, in
appealing to the fancies of children,
ever over-taxed his imagination as
President Hoover repeatedly has done
in his endeavor to regain the lost
favor of the American people. Con-
trasted with his speech of acceptance
and his addresses at Des Moines,
Cleveland and elsewhere, Aesop's Fa-
bles deserve to rank as an accurate
history OF things that actually oc-
Cured"
Glass made the point that 10000
600 Americans were jobless before
Europe's bank crash began in Aus
tria in 1881, and before Britain went
off the gold standard. This was
in answer to Hoover's claim that the
United States was drawn into a
depression which first swept Europe.
