Scheduled For July 8.
Mr.. Leary and other officials de-
clared the civilian mobilization VOL

chants.
This is scheduled for July 8, and
each volunteer who accepts the as
signment will be asked to visit 10
designated stores in or near their

that If there was to be such a prose

be a first step He added that

Orders Pe||ey Prison
Sentence in Effect
Ex-SiIver Shirts Counsel
Alleges JurisdietionoI
Conflict With Indiunu
Ey re Associated Press,


RALEIGH, N. c., June 24.-The
State Supreme Court put into ef-
feet today a suspended sentence
on william Dudley Pelley, former
leader Of the Silver Shirts Of
America. The court affirmed in
vocation of the sentence.
The 52-year-old Pelley had ap-
pealed in January invocation Of. a
sentence OF two to three years by
Superior Court Judge Don Phillips.
The sentence was passed and sus-
pended in 1885 after Pelley's con-
viction in Buncombe County (Ashe-
ville) Of violating the States Sc
curities laws.
The judgement today upheld Su-
perior Court findings that the leader
of the Silver Shirts had promoted
and fostered a secret political and
military organization, that he had
libeled the President Of the United
States and that his writings were
otherwise in violation OF terms OF
the suspension.
Under Indiana Indictment.
A Federal grand jury at In
dianapolis indicted Pelley and two
associates June 9 on a charge OF
seditious activities under the Es-
pionage Act of 1917. He was ar
rested at Darien. Conn, April 1 on
order of Attorney General Biddle
and brought to Indianapolis on a
warrant issued at Noblesville, Ind
He was bonded for $4,000 in the
Federal case and for $4,000 in the
North Carolina case
Counsel for Pelley had contended
before the North Carolina Supreme
Court that there was conflict OF
jurisdiction" between North Caro-
lima and the Federal courts and
asked the court to halt all proceed
ing against him. His lawyers did
not announce whether q review of
the case would be sought before
The United States Supreme Court.
Nor was it made known immedi-
ately what disposition would be
made OF Pelley.
The Federal charges against
Pelley were based on articles in
The Galilean." published by the
Fellowship Press at Noblesville,
until it was declared non -mailable
by the Post once Department sew
eral weeks ago. Pelley had divided
his publishing activities between
Noblesville. where he had his Silver
Shirt headquarters, and Asheville
Good Behavior" Stipulated.
His conviction in 1885 was in
connection with operations Of the
Galahad Press, which at that time
had its principal Offices at Ashe-
Vile. His two to three years SEN
tence was suspended on payment OF
a 81 900 fine. Continuous good be-
havior for five years was stipulated
On October 10. 1899, Superior
Court Judge Zeb Nettles ordered a
capias for Pelley and after long
search he was arrested in Washing
ton on February 10. 1870 He un-
successfully fought his return to
this State and last January Judge
Phillips ordered him to serve the
prison terms at hard labor and to
wear stripes.
Pelley's appeal contended that he
had not violated terms of the stay
of Judgment and claimed the statute
of limitations was applicable to his
case.
Associate Justice Emory B. Denny
held in the opinion today, however,
that the statute does not run in
favor of an accused person while he
is a fugitive from justice"
