Frank Morrison, officials pt the Ameri
can Federation of Labor. In oonnecUon

pany boycott rase, took an a dramatic
touch at the hearing today.
Mr. Mitchell had seemed to be criti
cising Justice Wright, before whom be la
on trial, and tha Justice bad displayed
some Impatience with hla emtio.
"Let ma explain this," said Mr. Mitch
el). "At tha time I waa summoned to
Washington to appear before this oourt
I faced a long term hi prison. It was an
tha day before Christmas are. I waa
living in New York. I bad aot aeen my
family and children, who were In Illi
nois, for two months. I had bought and
packed In my grip toys and gifts for my
children. I was summoned to Washing
ton to receive any sentence. I asked that
the decision be postponed. It waa not.
I waa brought here and sentenced.
"I had merely dpne what I believed
was my right under tha government any
father bad fought to upheld. Bo when I
appeared and waa sentenced, and dis
cussed It afterward. I oeeJd net attempt
to and did not disguise my feelings. I
felt outraged."

"Mr. , Mitchell.', said Justice Wright,
"you have shown soma bitterness toward
the court for the manner In which you
were sentenced. What reason have you
for believing that tha court knew ot your
request far a postponement T"

request bad bean conveyed to the court."
Ka request waa conveyed to tha court,'

There waa aa atmosphere ot antagonism,
about it. It waa a demand (rem tba Tlea
president ot tba American Federation ot
Labor for a postponement. I did not
think ha had any more right to demand
It than any other man."
"I hava bean under the Impression that
my request waa conveyed to that court
and waa denied. It I have been wrong
in that. I would not do tba oourt aa In
justice and I regret that I hava made
it appear so," said Mr. Mitchell
