TWO CONVICTED
ON FLAG INCIDENT
Two Sailors Will Be Sentenced
Thursday for Tearing
Down Nazi Banner

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 2o-lR-
Two young navy men on leave
from a psychopathic ward e r e
convicted today of ripping a Nazi
flag from it's staff at the German
consulate.
The incident occurred Saturday
as some 1000 persons alternately
gasped and cheered at the reck-
less adventure nine floors above
the street.
The two, Harold j. Sturtevant,
10, of Haverhill, Mass, and Erwin
G. Lackey, 20, of Charlotte, N. c.,
will be sentenced Thursday by Mu-
nicipal Judge Peter ]. Mullins who
convicted them of a malicious mis-
chief charge. They had waived trial
by jury and pleaded innocent.
In court, however, each admit
ted his part in the escapade, an
incident over which the United
States government has given Ger.
many a written expression of re-
gret, and which Berlin has called
"scandalous."
Judge Mullins told the two this
is an offense against another ma.
ton" He said he considered the
slashing and ripping of the Nazi
emblem "the act of youth in all
its recklessness, prompted by bra
vado and the wish to be a hero in
the eyes of the crowd"
The maximum sentence possible
under the charge is six months in
city prison. Meanwhile the youths

power to destroy? The way those
at that North American Aviation
strike. They had legitimate griev-
ance. The company was rotten to
them. And they did what Ameri-
cans always have done-fought for
their rights.
But the strike was pulled by the
Communists just when negotiations
were going on. When the troops
took over, thought-now is the
test. The sight of troops has al
ways been a red rag to Americans.
They have always fought whenever
troops came along to take away
from them what they had a right
to. But this time when they saw
the troops, they said 'Hooray' and
took the chance to go back to work,
the chance that the Communists
wouldn't give them.
That proved to me what nobody
from now on can disprove-that the
country Is more united behind the
President than it ever has been,
that it goes along all the way with
his foreign policy. If those fell
lows in Inglewood hadn't been be-
hind the President and the defense
program, we'd nave seen some rough
stuff when those troops showed up.
Il think even Charles Lindbergh
is beginning to feel that the coun-
try is behind Roosevelt more solidly
even than In the election. His San
Francisco speech was toned way
down. He backed off from all his
Hitleresque calls for new lead
ership and Hitleresque predictions
of time when the American people
will call its leaders to account. We
