change according to the situation.-

lice caught man who said he was
Charles Callahan of 420 West 150th

OUTLAW CHIEF SEES
TOO SMALL FUND
S2,000,000 Is insufficient to
Finance General Strike,
Says Grunau.

CHICAGO, Oct. 17.-The railroad BROTH
erhoods have strike fund Of $4,000, 900.
which is insufficient for a general strike
OF any length, John Grunau, president
Of the United Association of Railway
Employees of North America and leader
Of the unauthorized switchmen's strike
Of last year, declared to-day.
Grunau has issued circular to the
GO, 900 members of his organization OUT
lining the associations position In event
Of a strike, but declaring that he does
not believe there will be a walkout. He
points out that the brotherhood leaders
have weakened their own ranks by cir
culating reports that the members of his
organization will step in as strike break
ers in revenge for the efforts Of the old
organizations to break the Grunau
strike in April. 1920. Grunau denied
any such intention.
There are thousands Of our members
walking the streets to-day while their
families suffer-" the circular says.
'.why? Because, when we were on
strike in 1920 for 165 days the recog-
nized brotherhood leaders established
strike breaking and scab herding agen-
cies in all terminals affected by our
movement causing our defeat"
The circular closed with the ironical
statement:
'"The so-called outlaws will not expel
any of their members for participating
in strike, whether ordered by their
leaders or by another organization.
Neither will they revoke the charter OF
any local that goes on record to partici-
pate in strike. and most positively this
association will not establish strike
breaking or scab herding agencies as
was done by the famous brotherhoods
while the members of our association
were on vacation last year" -- q.
Grunau said his union has ZIG locals
in the United States and Canada. Under
the name of the Chicago Yardmen's As
sociation he called strike in 1920 that
for time threatened to paralyze the
nations transportation facilities.
Two other labor organizations outside
the sixteen standard bodies announced
that no strike votes had been taken. O.
J. Luhrsen, president of the American
Train Despatchers Association, which
claims membership of 9S per cent. OF
the country's train despatchers, said
his organization was going to keep its
skirts clear"
1--WE look to the law to take care OF
the situation" Mr.. Luhrsen said. Until
II is proved inadequate we don't want to
act in defiance. We have many griev-
ances in which we think the roads have
disobeyed the law but until forced to II
we will not act. The others no doubt
have full Justification for their action,
but we will not go with them at this
time"

WIN IN COURT CASE
Get Proceeds of Sale of Motor
Car Bought on Note.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 17.--Automobiles
sold on time, for which purchasers have
given notes, become in bankruptcy pro-
ceedings assets of the purchaser and
money derived from the sale of such
machines may be used by the trustee of
the bankrupt for the benefit of his
creditors.

Supreme Court to-day to review case
in which the Grinnell Overland Com
pany sought to recover an automobile
sold to Thomas l. Mintle. an Iowa
farmer. Mintle gave his note, but failed
to complete payments.
The machine was attached and sold
