GARY POLICE
CHASE BOOZE
RUNNERS

Gary police officers had an exciting
time with two booze runners at 25th
avenue and Clark road yesterday when
they were working on a tip that a
transfer Of whiskey was to be made in
that vicinity.
Il was after the sponge squad had
made a futile search Of three different
trucks that they were rewarded when
they hailed the fourth q Ford truck.
Instead OF bringing the car 70 a halt
the driver OF the Ford put on more
spark and gas and sped down Clark
road at a high rate OF speed.
The police had some difficulty in
starting the machine which they had
Communicated and the Ford had gained
a lead OF nearly three blocks. Firing
Two shots at the fleeing car. the Ford
came to an abrupt stop when one Of
the bullets took effect IN the end gate.
The two booze runners then made
their escape into the woods. but after
4 thorough search the police squad
gave UP their chase for the two men.
However. they found two t~en-salIon
kegs of moonshine which the booze
runners had dumped out into the
woods The whiskey and the Ford car.
which they had abandoned in their es-
cape. was conhscated and taken to the
Central police station.

The Impending Railroad Strike.

The Impending Railroad Strike.
Ageneral strike of railroad EN-
ployees seems not only possible
but probable, and. according t
the president of the Brotherhood
of Railroad Trainmen, if it comes
it will be a fight to the finish
for the life or death of our or.
ganization.
The possibility of hardships re.
sulting from even a temporary
cessation of railroad operations
throughout the country, and the
consequent addition of some mil
lions of men to the existing ranks
of the jobIess. at the beginning
Of winter, is horrible to contem-
plate!
But if it must come, there new
er was a time when business was
better prepared to meet situa-
ton of that kind than it is right
now. Nor was there ever q
worse time for labor to make
such an issue.
Ia event of a strike now the
railroads doubtless would find
less difficulty than at any previ-
GUS time in recent years in re-
cruiting men to take the places
OF the strikers.
The probabilities are, therefore.
that one effect of the strike.
should it come, would be simply
to shift groups of workers out Of
employment with other thous-
ands who are now working for
the railroads.
But what the country needs is
. reduction in unemployment,
not merely an exchange in job
less personnel!
It d to be hoped the railroad
workers will give due and delib-
crate consideration to all ele- |
ments entering into the situation |
before finally walking out oil
their places. with the prospects |
Of a cold jobless winter ahead of |
them. Also. that the railroads, |
many of them already strained
70 the breaking point in their eff
forts to keep going, will consid-
er we'll what it may mean for
them to have to either draw
their fires or endeavor to oper-
ate with new, unframed and un-
skilled crews. before finally re-
fusing to make whatever conces-
sions may be necessary to keepl
their present trained operatives
On the job.
And both groups should giyel
due consideration to the welfare!
of the public and of the country.
md to public sentiment!
Regardless of conditions; OIL
Who Is in the right and who is in
he wrong; whether the strikers
nay win or lose, q general rail-
pad strike at this time would bel
lothing short of q calamity! 1,
And it should be averted if i'll
: humanity possible to do so.
Surely, surely, a way out Of
ne trouble can be found. AT
