letter from Governor Norblad, on
executive office stationery, reading
follows: "I am calling a meet

believe to be of great Importance
to the capital city of Oregon. Will
greatly appreciate your being pres

'Hot dog!" said the business men
to themselves and then hotfooted it
to the capitol at the appointed hour.
It isn't every business man that
gets a special delivery letter from
the governor In which he says he is
calling a "meeting of a few leaders."
So the leaders landed at the exec

of great importance to the Capital

federal offensive pledged to con

ped Into submission.
Outlining the most extensive fed
eral effort ever undertaken against
local crime. Attorney General Mit
chell told of a coordinated drive by
all government law enforcement ag
encies against gangsters. .
The campaign was instituted early
last summer when the Hoover ad
ministration realized that the un
checked growth of racketeering In
Chicago and elsewhere constituted
a threat to law and order on a na
tional scale.
Because the situation Is more
acute In Chicago than eslewhere,
Mitchell said a special agent was
sent there from Washington to act
as assistant to the U. S. district at
torney and to coordinate the work
of all government agencies.
The government branches con
cerned in the war include the Jus
tice department, prohibition bureau,
coast guard and customs service.
In Chicago recently the staff of
several of these units have been
increased, but Mitchell explained
the government was not concentrat
ing its forces In that city. Its pres
ent effort is national in scope wher
ever the gangster threat is serious.
