The charge that our men attacked
that car is absurd" said Secretary
Bowling of the carmen's union yester-
day afternoon. ANY fair minded man
can readily see that it is some sort of
plot Do you suppose that a man with
ordinary common sense would single
out a certain car at q specified hour

public will be convinced that the
charges against the men are without
foundation"
