DENY R. R. FIGURES
Statements of Shop Conditions
Questioned by Strikers.
Claim Few Cars Repaired Since
Strike Was Called.

In contradiction to a statement is
sued today by w. K. Etter, general
manager of the eastern lines of the
Santa Fe, as regards shop conditions,
F. w. Rausch. chairman of the pub
ncity committee of the six striking
shop crafts, speaking for the executive
committee of the crafts, stated that
nine freight cars were repaired and
urday, making a total for the three
weeks of the strike of not more than
fifty freight cars repaired here.
And there were no heavy repairs
in the lot" Rausch said. THE great
er portion of the repairs consisted of
work which would ordinarily have
been done right on the rip track.
TT should be remembered, too. that
there were from SEQ to 400 cars in the
shops for repairs-some of them al
most finished, when the strike was
called
One baggage car was turned out
of the coach shops here Saturday, ac-
cording to the reports of the execu-
tive committee, and only four coaches
have been repaired during the course
of the strike.
There have also been four locomo-
tives repaired during the strike
Rausch said, "and all those were light
repairs which should have been done
back shops. They are taking repairs
to the back shops now instead of do
ing them in the roundhouse."
situation Looks Good"
Locally, the situation looks. good
Rausch said today. There has been
no change of any significant nature
in the past two days. Registration al
the headquarters OF the crafts in La
Dor hall was heavier today than ii
has been for some time:
IF the Santa Fe is turning out sew
enty-four cars a day from the TopoS5a
shops I don't see why they are ad-
vertising in the eastern papers for
more men," Rausch said. Seventy

1t has been reported to the ex-
ecutive committee that a train of
forty empty refrigerator cars has been
pulled out of the shops here to go to
Chanute. 1t was stated to the conf
mittee that the refrigerator cars were
hauled into the shop with bad order
tags, which have been removed and
the cars sent to Chanute. The cars
were not repaired in the Topeka shops
and the tags were moved so that it
would not appear that equipment in
bad order was being hauled over the
road, Rausch said.

received by United Mine Workers Of

Will Be Stripped With Asphalt From
Fourth to Ninth.

Kansas avenue is to be stripped
with asphalt in the very near future,
w S Hancock, commissioner of
streets and public improvements an
nounced today.
The stripping will be done with the
new asphalt plant of the city, and
is to be commenced in a week or ten
days. It will take at least two weeks
to finish the job, Hancock believes.
The asphalt strips will be laid on
each side of the street car tracks and
will extend for sixteen or eighteen
feet toward the curbs- The space
alongside the curbs which is used for
parking cars will not be covered with
asphalt.
The work will start at Fourth
avenue and will run as far as Ninth
street. Farther if the money in my
budget holds out" Hancock said. He
explained that the work is being done
from the departments budget and
will be limited by the amount avail
able.
The asphalt machine has hitherto
been used mostly on the residence
streets" Hancock said today. But
the paving on Kansas avenue is get
ting pretty bad. The merchants who
own property along the street have
been taxed for the paving of it some
three times that 1 know of, and the
public gets the benefit from it, too.
So 1 decided that we rather owed it to
the business interests to strip Kansas
avenue at the expense of the city for
once"

BILL is ARRESTED
Editor Charged With Violating
Industrial Court Law.
PIacard Which Caused So Much
Trouble Taken Down.

William Allen White was formally
arrested late Saturday afternoon in his
Emporia Gazette office on charge OF
violating a provision of the Industrial
court. law White was arrested be-
cause he displayed a sign expressing
sympathy for railroad shop strikers.
He was Immediately released on bond
and test case involving the scope
of the industrial court act in prohibit
ing all forms of picketing or support
of strikers will be tested in the Oc-
tober term of the Lyon county district
court.
PIacard Is Removed.
The placard which caused so much
trouble was taken down shortly after
the Emporia editors arrest. Action
by the state in directing Whites ar
rest ended a several days controversy
regarding the rights of a citizen to
express sympathy for men who were
on strike. White maintained Cover
nor Aliens Interpretation of the law
invaded the constitutional privilege or
free speech.
White is the first Kansan arrested
for displaying signs which strikers
have sought to have shown in all rail-
road towns, His arrest did not come,
however, until Judge James A McDer-
mott of the industrial court went to
state would act. Most of the signs in
Emporia were removed Friday night
Saturday, tho, White displayed the
placard in his newspaper office His
arrest came late in the afternoon.
1t is the contention of Governor
Alien that the question of free speech
is noe involved in Whites action. On
the theory that Whites act vioIe1ed
the labor court act, he will be prSe-
cuted on a misdemeanor charge.

TO TEST GRAIN ACT
Court Action Brought by Wheat
Growers Association.
Restraining Order Secured
Against Frank Schultz of Sedg

Suit to test the rights of. a member
1of the Kansas Wheat Growers aSso-
citation to sell his grain under private
contract was filed in the supreme

marketing act passed by the 1921 leg

tracts for sale of his grain. Schultz

court from selling his grain until is
sues in the case have been decided.
To Control Market.
Following passage of the co-opera-
tive marketing law by the 1921 legis-
sociation was formed for the purpose
of perfecting a pool which could con-
troll a large portion of the wheat
grown in this state. The purpose of
the association was to withhold the
grain from the markets until prices
were favorable to the producer. Plans
for credit and other matters of i'm
portance in the handling of a gigan-
tic grain pool were worked out.
There are at this time 1887 men,
bers of the Wheat Growers associa-
tion. Under their cooperative agree
ment they control 100000 bushels
of wheat. Sale of this grain was to
be handled thru twenty men who
form the board of directors.
Agreements by individual members
were o.the effect that no sales were
to be made except thru the organiza-
ton. 1t is alleged that Schultz sopght
to make a private sale and the court
is asked to enjoin such action.

q. S. BUYS WELSH COAL
Nothing To Indicate Yet, That Such
Shipments VIII Stop.

London. July 24-Americans have
contracted for the total output of many
Welsh coal mines until the miners
strike in the United States is settled.
1t was announced today at Cardiff.
The British Federation of Miners
has not yet taken any action to pre-
vent the shipment Of British coal to
America and there is nothing to indi-
cate that such action will be taken.
Frank Hodges and other officials of
the miners union are busy with the
political campaign in Wales and have
been paying little attention of late to
labor affairs.
1t is understood that the English
section of the union is reluctant to
act because of the failure of the
Americans to support the British in
their last strike
