sylvia Bishop and. Mrs. Leota Bishop

Proposed Action OF Strikers
Against the Attorney GEN

Seriously.

Washington, Aug 9.---It is the inten-
tion of certain labor organizations to
institute quo warranto proceedings
against Attorney General Knox, alleg-
ing that he has not done his duty in
failing to take steps under the anti
trust act against the U. s. Steel corpor-
alton. 1t is not taken seriously at the
department of Justice Attorney Gen
eral Knox is absent in New York but
others connected with the department
talked freely on the matter to-day. In
the first place they say quo warranto
proceedings will not hold because by
quo warranto 1t might be determined
by what right thing is done but
never why thing is not done.

last night said:
"The sense of meeting was that IL
it comes to an issue we will render the

our power. That was expressed by
unanimous vote. We will refuse to
handle anything that comes from un-

them. From 1000 to 5000 men in

effected

taken in other large cities.

defined correctly.
