CALIFORNIA W. W.
TEST CASE ON TRIAL
United Press Leased Wire

SACRAMENTO, June 12.--Ten men
went to trial here today on charges of
e criminal syndicalism in case
which is expected to establish legally
whether membership in the ]. w. w. is
sufficient grounds for criminal pros
tcution. Widespread prosecutions, 1T
is believed, win follow conviction in
this case.
All 10 were witnesses two months ago
in the trial Of j. A. Casdorf and Earl
frey, tried for criminal syndicalism -
here, and convicted.
The men were called by the defense
to give expert testimony as to the
character of the |. w. w. organiza-
tiOn.
care you n member of. the T. w.
W.?'' each witness was asked by the
state and each replied affirmatively.
Wherenpon arrests on charge of
criminal syndicalism . was made i'm.
lnediately as each witness left the
stahd.
The California criminal svndical-
ISM law was passed during the war
and imposes q maximum of 10 years
/ IN prison as penalty for any state
mcnt or action contrary to the estab-
llshcd order of society. It's constitu.
tionality has been upheld by the Cali
fOrnia courts.
While the majority of the prosecu-
tons under the law have hinged upon
!. W. w. membership, these cases stand
out as the first large prosecutions in
which ]. w. w. membership alone has
been an issue.
The 10 men on trial are G. p. Laruc.
Pete Beazley, j. O'Mara, w. Ruther-
ford, j. r. Nash, Tom Zanger, y. Kyer

ROADS DECLARE
 FREIGHT EMBARGO
Coal Shipments Given Prefer ence By Eastern Railway
 Executives
By Associated Press

New York, September 1.-The chief eastern railroads today declared sweeping embargo on freight com peting with coal shipments. the New York Central. Erie, Lackawanna and Lehigh Valley issuing orders stopping practically all freight from the west except foodstuffs at connecting points.
 This announcement, together with a threatened strike of freight shan dlers and station employees of the Pennsylvania system, were the most important developments of ths day in the eastern railroad situation. The clerks and freight handlers brother hood leaders said they were ordering strike vote because the Pennsvl- vania management refused to recog- nize the union
 The New York Central soon after the embargo was announced, issued a statement to the effect that freight originating on connecting lines be- yond it's own limits had to be stopped at connecting points because of the congestion which might result from embargoes by other lines. The state ment said the permit system" in- augurated by President Smith of the New York Central while he was re- ginal director during the war, again had been put into effect.

FIVE ALL-STAR ACTS
 AT BIJOU FIRST HALF

speaking or vaudeville bills, Loew' S Bfjou has probably surpassed all pre- vious records by presenting the five acts on exhibition for the first half or the week, composed entirely of star acts. with widely known and popular stars rendering their lines in true big time style.
 Outside of the vaudeville acts, Tom Mix, the strong man screen favorite, appears in his latest success, The Fighting Streak" which is a fast moving western drama, replete with thrills which hold the audience in suspense throughout. A beautiful tale of love is interwoven in the play, which serves to make the produc- tion one of the most popular of the year.
 "The Mysterious Will,' a comedy featuring three artists, headlines the bill, being play centered around a rich, eccentric uncle's will, dividing his money between his two nephews and lone niece. The villain also makes his appearance, and serves to make the act interesting as well as thrilling throughout.
 Coming next are Bixley and Ler- ner, comedians beyond comparison. Vocal and clean-cut comedy, coupled with their burlesque presentation of famous opera, keep the full house audiences in an uproar throughout their act. Burns and Larkin, comedy gymnasts, also have an exceptional act. featuring their dog, who plays the stellar role as dancer in their act.
 The Spencer Sisters and Wilbur, an act featured by the sensational high jumping of Wilbur, was also highly received by thunderous applause up- on the close of each feat. Jean Ferry. vocalist, gives a few vocal selections of merit.
