Last Hours of Fur
Strike Marked by
Police Brutality

NEW YORK CITY, June 13.-The
striking furriers held to the picket
line up to the last before the bosses
finally surrendered. The last morn
ing's mass picket demonstration which
was characterized by certain capitalist
papers as a riot, was actually marked
with very little disorder except that
created by police officials.
A detective and uniformed officer
stopped six workers who were on
their way to a restaurant and after
questioning them, insisted that they
enter the hallway Of a nearby building
to submit to further examination
There the officers drew their clubs
and after hitting each of the workers
in turn, turned on Sol Orscher. a
member of the general picket com
mittee, and beat him severely.
None OF these workers was placed
under arrest, and after the attack by
the officers they were allowed to go
When they reached the restaurant, II
was discovered that Orscher was so
badly injured that he had to be taken
to a hospital where he is still under
treatment.
This is the sort OF occurrence the
papers call "a riot of strikers"
Eight workers were arrested on the
picket line, but when arraigned in JET.
ferson Market Court on charges OF
disorderly conduct were dismissed,
2 were fined so each and cases were
postponed.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla, June IL
The horrible and almost Incredible
torture, followed by the lynching Of
Parker Watson. Negro laborer here,
which occurred on May 8, has aroused
The decent elements to protest which
may result in the state government
taking a hand and forcing local Off
oials to investigate the case and pros
ecute his murders-something they
have so far refused to do.
Arrested Only on Suspicion.
Arrested as suspect, the only
charges preferred against him being
that of petit larceny and resisting an
officer, Watson was taken from police
officers by six masked men as he was
being removed to the county jail at
Clearwater.
The next day Watson's body was
found with the eyes gouged out and
the empty sockets burned, apparently
by lighted cigars. The face and torso
were scared with acid and one arm
had been cut of.
MutlIated While Alive.
He had been shot six times.
Physicians who examined the body
state that the gouging, burning acid
mutilation and the severance Of the
arm had been done while Watson was
still alive.
The district attorney has stated that
ne was too busy to conduct and in
Testigation of this flendish crime.
Asks for Water-Lynohed.
Negroes here live in perpetual fear
OF lynching.
Four days before the finding of
Watson's body another Negro was
1ynched at La Belle. He had asked
a woman for drink of water, she ran
screaming to a neighbor's house. The
Negro, Henry Patterson, was lynched
by a mob and his body carried thru the
streets on the hood of an automobile.
The woman admitted later that Pat
terson had done nothing but ask for
water.
She gave as an excuse that she was
nervous and excited"

found their line pierced repeatedly by

GRID RULE CHANGE
REGARDED AS LIKELY
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, November 22.-The
possibility of a new rule on the foot
ball books next season developed to-
day from an incident that figured in
Yales defeat of Harvard Saturday.
Yale scored a touchdown after a
long punt by Capt. Coady drove the
ball from deep Harvard territory to
apparent safety far past midfleld. The
ball was called back when it was dis.
covered that q Yale substitute had
trotted on the field in the middle Of
the play. When Coady kicked again
the Yale line smashed through,
blocked the kick and Sturhahn re.
covered the ball over Harvard's goal
for a touchdown. Had II not been for
this touchdown Harvard would have
won.
Critics favoring a change in the
rules say that Harvard, in effect, was
penalized a touchdown because a sub
stitute caused IL Yale men to he on
the field during the play. Yale suf-
fered no penalty and received two
chances to block one kick. Some
critics suggested the rules be changed
to allow the original kick to count as
a play. disregarding the illegal substi.
tuition.
