WITH PICTURES

Another document in steady de-
mand is the report of the LaFol-
lette committee on its investigation
into the Chicago Memorial Day in
cident in which II steel strikers
were killed in a brush with police.
The document clerks did neat
piece of detective work in connec-
ton with one request for the La
Toilette committee report. A pos
tai card came to Capitol Hill adj
dressed simply: Senate Report,
Part 2, rs Congress, Mum b er A6,
Washington 1t bounced around
from office to office until it reach
ed the document room. After a
bit Of study the clerks concluded
that a certain Petrovic of Detroit
wanted copy of document as, part
2, of the 18th Congress. This is the
LaFollette report.
Evidently some organization has
been urging that the report, which
condemned police methods of han
ding strikes, be more widely read,
for a Los Angeles public library
asked for copies of the document
in manner almost identical with
that Of Petroyic of Detroit.
The document is one of the very
few published by Congress with
illustrations. 1t reproduces several
photographs of tangled piles of
strikers to support its conclusion
that the consequences of the Me-
mortal Day encounter were clearly
avoidable by the police"

has been saving games for the Cubs.
Clay pulled another out of the fire

down to a feeble buzz with one hit

and he hasn't lost one yet.
The Giants defeat by the Pirates,
their first in seven clashes, marked
another episode in the mysterious
malady that has beset Hubbell since
the Dodgers ended his two-year win

less than two innings and lost his
