Counsel for Striking R. R.
Shopmen Given "a Hours
More to File Answer

CHICAGO, Oct. 5 (By The Asso-
ciated Press) ):-Counsel for the
striking railway shopcraft today
was given another twenty-four
hours to file their answer to the
governments suit for nationwide
permanent injunction.
Donald Richbourg, attorney for
the shopcraft leaders, served notice
he will present a motion asking for
a bill of particulars from the gov
ernment before fling his answer.
CHICAGO, Oct. 5.-(By The As
soc;ated Press Appearing before
Federal Judge James H. Wilkerson,
today, Donald r. Richberg, ttorney
for the railway shop crafts, accus-
ed the Department of Justice of lack
pedite final disposition of the in
junction case against rail strike
leaders. Mr.. Richberg declared that
he and associate counsel had held
a very unsatisfactory conference"
with Solicitor General Beck, after a
futile attempt to see Attorney Ger
eral Daugherty in Washington. with
reference to an early final hearing
for review of the interlocutory in
junction handed down by Judge
Wilkerson, September 25.
In connection with his staten ent
to the court in which he recalled
that Judge Wilkerson had notified
the government 1t should hold itself
in readiness to go to trial at an
early date, with the suggestion that
opposing counsel attempt to agree
on a trial program, Mr.. Richberg
delivered to the court a copy of a
letter to Solicitor General Beck
criticising the position of the gov
ernment attorney. The shopcraft
attorney said he would seek to OBJ
tain protection of. the rights of the
defendants through orders which
the court may enter and through
procedure, which the court may
adopt despite the manifest opposi-
ton of the attorney general to the
entry of any order or the adoption
of any procedure which will protect
the defendants from the abuse of
official power"
"The use of the summary equity
procedure to obtain tentative con-
viction of 100000 men of criminN
solely in an undigested mass of ex-
parte affidavits, reeking with hear
say and perjury, has been the means
of depriving these men of liberty
and property SO long as the inter-
locutory injunction remains in
force" the letter said.
Safeguards protecting the vilest,
most notorious criminals caught red
handed have been denied to 100000
Industrious, law-abiding citizens and
their chosen leaders," the letter
continues.
"The department of justice threat
ems to take dispositions Throughout
the United States and make the
burden of defending as oppressive
and expensive as possible to the al
ready deeply wronged defendants"

WHAT INTEREST A

The champion debtor of the world
is George Jones of San Jose, Cal.
There car be no question of his title.
He owed on March l, 1904, S40,332,-
9~12,685.16.
To get that clearly in mind, just
form a definite mental concept of
a billion dollars and then imagine it
increased about 100000 times.
If Henry Stuart, to whom the mo-
ney is due, could collect, he could pay
the entire Indebtedness of the Allies,
$4,000 times over, and still have
enough left to pay the German in
demnity, and the army bonus, and
keep him and his family in comfort
for the rest of their natural lives.
And how does George happen to
owe Henry all that money? It's per-
fectly simple. Back in 1897 George
borrowed 800 from Henry, agreeing
to pay him 10 per cent interest a
month. He never paid anything.
Henry finally brought suit, and aSan
