Letters of Man Named Bradley
Show Him /. w. w.
That Is Information Wired
From Rice County.
MANY ARE AT WORK IN STATE
Further Arrests Are Expected
in a Short Time.
Investigation of Wheat Fires
Now Being Made. =

Agents and members of the I. w. W.
in Kansas are working as harvest
hands in scores of counties. That was
information intercepted today by Rice
county officials and transmitted by
wire to L. T. Hussey, state fire mar
shall. The letter to the effect that l.
W. w. agents are working in the
harvest fields were taken from a man
named Bradley. who is now a candi-
date for election to the executive
board of the organization.
Several days ago Bradley was ar
rested in Lyons under the state va
grancy act. He was suspected of be-
ing a disturber and agitator sent to
Kansas in the interests of 1. w. w.
propaganda campaigns. Today the
Rice county officials intercepted let
ter to Bradley from ]. Worel, of Kan
sas City. This letter made clear the
plan of l. W. w. workers in Kansas.
Gave Names of Three Men.
WoreIs letter gave Bradley three
names-Olph ]. Billings. Mndsborg;
Charles Fenno, Hoisington, and J. F.
Baum, 1107 South Santa Fe street,
Salina. Bradley was instructed to see
these men and to use them in his
campaign in this state
It do not know how red they are"
Worel is quoted as having written to
Bradley, ''but use them"
The Worel letter and other informa-
tion in Bradley's possession indicated
that national leaders of the /. w. W.
nave sent their agents and members
to Kansas to work in the wheat fields.
They are expected to secure informa-
tion and to aid in the carrying out of
the reign of terror and destruction
which officers of the organization are
said to have planned for this state i'm
mediately following the wheat har-
vest. By working as harvest hands,
it is the belief of state officials that
/. w. w. agents will secure much in
formation that will enable them to
add new members to their lists and
carry out their campaign of destruc-
ton of crops and machinery.
Make More Arrests.
At the state fire marshaFs office
today steps were being taken to arrest
Bradleys newly named agents, If
investigation shows that the men are
connected with 1. w. W. propaganda
work in Kansas, complaints will be
Frank McIvor, deputy state fire
marshal, asserted today that in his
opinion many 1. w. w, members had
gone to work in order to evade arrest
under the state vagrancy law. These
men, he believes, will later aid in
carrying out the national organiZa-
TONS plan for destruction of crops.
The one big set back which the
organization has received in Kan
sas," said McIvor. 'is the high wage
scale paid to workers. 1t is a diff
cult matter to enlist any considera BILE
amount OF new 1. w. w. support
when record wages are paid for farm
labor"
Investigation of fires in wheat
fields in Stafford county is continuing
today by deputy state fire marshals.
! Two deputy marshals are investigat-
ing reports that fires in the wheat
fields were started by I. w. w. agents
