byterian church of Lawton oh

hero today before the judicial
commission of the governing f
Keiift Presbytery.
Indications wvrc that the whole
dary would be taken up" in ex-
amination of witnesses.
The accused miniater faced the
trial body 'alone having been
refused the right Mo be assisted
by his attorney. Kequenti for a
public trial and the admission of
newspaper representatives were
deni.nl by the eomniission.
Two attorneys Ross Hume of
Andarko and A. H. .fnpp of
Walters acted as prosecutors.
Jloth are members of tho com-
mission While the charge against Mr.
Irwin have not been maed public
officially it was understood the
principal accusation lire that he
disciplined members of his con-
gregation without due process as
provided by church rcglations
and that he perjured himself to
obtain an injunction in district
court some months ago restrain-
ing members of the church from
interferinsr with his conduct of
church affairs.
The hearing which began yes-
terday 'progressed slowly as Mr.
Irwin insisted upon ' a careful
record of the proceedings. His
counsel stated this was for the
purpose of predicating an appeal
to the state synod and the gen-
eral assembl of the denomination
in event tha finding of the com-
mission was an adverse one.
Mr. Irwin the victim of two
alleged abductions which he
charged grew out of a bitter eon-
' troversy with one: section of ' his
congregation and the object of
nation-wide notoriety over a
bathing suit marriage ceremony
faces trial in district court next
fall on a charge of arson in con-
nection with nn alleged inccn-
iary fire at his church. Ho re-

Dry Addicts In Tearful Plea For Federal Probe
e
Washington July 25. Many drug
addicts among the 2000000 in Amer-
ica are appealing for a congressional
investigation of tho narcotic drug sit-
uation. They hope such an investigation will'
remedy apparent defects in present
regulatory legislation and will lead to
governmental research to find a aewn-
tifie cure for drug addiction. '
Addicts are writing Congressman
Lester D. Volk who is loading th
fight for the investigation prayerful
letters telling of thoir own tragedies
and urging action.
"Contrast these letters" says Volk
himself a physician "with tho state-
ments which have lately come1 from
high officials in which they gay that
in all cases they. eta i:ect
a cue;
that they will wipe out within six
months all cases of addiction; that the
drug problem of the United States is
already solved. Ignorance of the facta
is inexcusable."
1 Congressman Volk today gav.; out
the following as typical letters:
West Virginia: Ycungr man with
wife and five-year-old child an addict
since 1815 ayi:
'Without morphine I go blind and
cannot support my family. -I have
gone through a living hell; have been
in 11 cures without result One was
a hell hole where nails were driven
throuph a board and it was placed a
foot over my cot to restrain ma in
n y delirium. -
"All that hag ever beers donj for
nnbarr addicts like mygtlf i3 to put
ns in jail and 'asylums where self-
tvnpict is lost and on is driven to
crime or ' suicide. Why can't we be
treated by reputnMe physic; it ns in-
HteeI of being looked un as crimi-
. Hf.hT ';'"' -
"I have no hope of saving a dollar
as long as I have to uv the drug and
pay the prices forced on us. I would
inert in gc my birthright for a real
cure."
Connecticut: Harried woman a
morphine addict for 10 years caused
by physicians giving her injections to
induce physical rest. Cer husband
ays:
"Full rocords of my wife's case are
on file with the internal revenue bu-
reau and although ber treatment by
deetcr ami zt " declared to
be within the law by the narcotic di
rector agents so terrorized th drug-
gluts that they refused to fill pres'-rip-ti
ns.
"ft is a matter of lif nnd death
with inly wife yet official terrorism
prevents proper treatment."
Kew York: A widow college grad-
uate an addict for years through ac-
cident during a critical illness says:
"I used to laugh at people contract-
ing the so-called drug Uabit but after
my illness I went through ageny and
horror and when I was revived with
morjhin I became aware that I was
an addict without knowing it.
. "I tried to be cured but I was in-
sulted and jeered at for my pains and
