FEW WORKERS AT

Five New Hampshire Tex

Resume Operations
PACIFIC MILLS
FORCED TO CLOSE
Operatives Walk Out Shortly After En-
tering Plant - Court InjunctiOns Fail
to Restrain PiclIets at Nashua-Only
Clerical Employees at Work.

MANCHESTER, n. H., June 5. -
Striking textile operatives held most of
their strength in the five cotton mills
which opened today for the first time in
nearly four months. In all the plants the
number reporting for work under the 20
per cent wage cut and 54-hour week that
caused the strike were only small pro-
portion of the normal forces.
At Dover the Pacific Mills plant had
to close again when the few operatives
who went in walked out shortly after
ward.
The Coolidge mill of the Amoskeag
company here received the largest num-
Der of workers, probably, but they con
stituted a group so small that textile
leaders asserted the plant could not CON
tinue to operate. Two men arrested there
for melting to riot We're subsequently
discharged.
Court injunctions against pieketing did
not deter the striking operatives at
Nashua from making a show of strength
outside the Nashua and Jackson mills
and the number who reported for work
was said to be only slightly increased
over the clerical and maintenance en-
ployes who have been at work regularly.
The Great Falls mills at Somersworth
had small response. The Suncook mills
and the Newmarket mills did not open.

NEW YORK, June 5.-Izzy Einstein
and Moe Smith made their first excursion
into Brooklyn Saturday afternoon and
when they came out of that borough
yesterday afternoon they had established
a new record for 24-hour period. Fifty
saloons We're visited and 80 owners and
IA bartenders summoned. Three of the
defendants are women. Beer was found
in nearly every place, as well as what
Izzy described as terrible hootch."
The raiders used high-powered auto

they had search variants, having pre-
viously procured evidence, Einstein said
they had no difficulty III getting liquor in
any of the places visited. Director Day

DECLINES TO HEAR ST..

Attorney for Wart-WiH Call
Old Jury

WHITE PLAINS, n. Y. June o
The June grand jury, impaneled today,
declined to hear evidence in the Ward
shooting case after County Judge Blake
ly, who charged it, pointed out that he
formerly had been a law partner of an
attorney for Walter $. Ward. 1t there
upon was decided to issue an emergency
call for the May grand jury, which has
not yet been discharged District Attor-
ney Weeks plans to submit the case to
the May jurors tomorrow.
The entire household Of Walter $. Ward,
his father, George S. Ward, and several
neighbOrs of the Wards in New Rochelle
were expected to appear today before
the Westchester county grand jury In an
effort to get the facts surrounding the
shooting of Clarence Peters, ex-sailor.
Nav Is. This was the second time the
grand jury was called upon to consider
some part of the mysterious killing af-
fair, which Walter s. Ward has said
resulted from an attempt by blackmail-
ers to ext0rt S75,00O from him.
Mrs. Beryl Ward was to be the first
witness The two maids in the Ward
household were also to appear for eX-
aminations. The authorities desired to
clear up the story of James j. Cunning
ham. race track follower, now in jail as
a material witness in the case. Last
night Cunningham destroyed the prOba-
bility that John CienzO. arrested In
Philadelphia and found to be wounded
in the army, could be the Jackson in the
Ward case.
Another important witness was looked
for in George S. Ward. Authorities
hoped through the father of young Ward
to learn the nature of the blacSmail plot
that caused his son TO pay $4,000 and
| then appeal to him while abroad for more
money to meet the gangs demands.

such meetings were illegal
The legal obstacle to holding the meet
ings outside of New York has been re-
moved, it is understood, but the legality
of certain proceedings held before the
obstacle was removed are still the sub

ceedings was the increase in the number
of directors from six to II at the annual
meeting in Philadelphia.
Paul T. Brady of New York. an Off
cial of the Westinghouse Electric Co,
who on the strength of certain Cabana
records which are questioned paid $780,
