Title	Schmidt, Katherine L 1932-05-20
Abstract	Letter to Theodore Debs, 05/20/1932. Says that Clarence Darrow was in San Francisco and Oakland, California to speak before the Bar Association and the Commonwealth Club. Writes that she wished Theodore Debs could have heard Clarence Darrow speak because he paid tribute to Eugene V. Debs. Tells Theodore Debs that she could not keep the tears from flowing when Clarence Darrow talked about the way that Eugene V. Debs influenced his life. Mentions that Clarence Darrow's address was a plea for the poor. Says that she accompanied Clarence Darrow to William Randolph Hearst's ranch in San Simeon, California. Remarks that William Randolph Hearst has the finest private zoo in the world. Says that she thinks that the Tom Mooney decision was outrageous. Expresses the hope that she hears something encouraging next month. Remarks that on 06/20/1932 Mathew Schmidt will have been imprisoned in San Quentin for 15 years. Asks that Theodore Debs tell her if he has ever seen anything equal to the current depression. Mentions that Clarence Darrow thinks that it is only the beginning of something much worse. Writes that perhaps Eugene V. Debs's prediction is coming true and the world is crumbling under its own weight. Remarks that she thinks that Clarence Darrow took the Massie case in Honolulu, California because he has been hit hard by the depression. Expresses the hope that Theodore Debs and his family are doing well.
