MINNEAPOLIS. ebruary 21—A man who, as a confessed criminal and an undesirable, left Minneapolis 32 years ago by order of the police, re- cently returned, a convert to Chris- tianity and a leader in welfare and criminal rehabilitation work.

Conditions surrounding the man's departure from Minneapolis and hi subsequent return, according to Cal- jahan himself, offer a great contrast. Driven from this city in its infant days as a convict “too crooked to tend bar” and as a confessed thief, Calla- han on his return found Minneapolis paying homage to him in an almost unprecedented manner. Swamped With Messages. Callahan spent one week here, and was swamped with visits and mes- from Minneapolis' leading men omen. comed by the bench and bar, the pulpit and the home, Callahan had a program of activity which engaged his time on an average of 14 hours daily. He spoke before many of the leading local civic, business and church clubs in addition to innumer- able other gatherings. On the only Sunday spent here Callahan visited different churches to speak briefly, and special afternoon services were held to give the parishioners an op- portunity to hear him “Faith in the Bible,” Callahan told | his audiences, “made me good and kept me good.” He &till carries the same little copy of the New Testa ment given him the night of his con- version { Branting Grows Worse.
