Authorities appoint the execution of communist conspirator Earl Williams, to be hanged. Williams escaped from police custody late last night, leading the officials on a wild goose chase throughout the city on his whereabouts.  “No, sir. I don’t believe in it. I would never abuse myself or anybody else. I love people. I love all people” said accused convict Earl Williams. 

The psychologist examination of Williams was performed at nine ’o clock upon the appeal from the Friends of American Liberty foundation. “I never said that I loved Earl Williams and was willing to marry him on the gallows” said Molly Malloy, Earl William’s lover. The hanging plans to go as scheduled, early Sunday morning, seven o’ clock in the gallows of Chicago Illinois.
