worse. When he entered the hospital,
he gave his name as Joe Hansen, but
the nurse mistrusting it was an as
sumed name, urged him to reveal his
real identity, telling him he might die
and in such an event his relatives
should be notified He then told the
nurse that his real name was Albert
Johnson and that he was the son of a
farmer living near Clarion. The par
ents We're advised and arrived here a
short time before the son. whom they

cooperative shipped its grain and then

manner the court says boycott was

and holds the evidence sufficient TO
show that Funck secured his stock In
the Farmers Elevator Company thru
the instigation of the independents to
