UPTON SINCLAIR

Passages Which Bar Oil

BOSTON, June 9.-Upton Sinclair
and John Gritz, bookstore clerk and
defendant, appeared in mun.3ipa.

latest novel, COLL" which has been
banned here.
The case against Gritz, charged
with selling a copy Of coil" was con-
tinued until tomorrow by Judge Will
lam II. Sullivan. In the meantime,
Judge Sullivan said he would read the
book
Sinclair win read extracts from the
Bible on Boston Common Sunday
afternoon, he declared today. The ex-
tracts referred to are the alleged OBJ
scene matter contained in "Ol." on
the grounds of which the book was
suppressed.
The novel "Ol" is Of course not
obscene in any way, not nearly as
much as the Bible, from which Sin
clair made very cautious selection
Of passages. The reason for its diff
ficulties is that it gives very vivid
picture Of the graft, bribery and gem
eral corruption in capitalist politics,
industry and society in Southern Cali
fornia, not even respecting some Of
the secrets Of the "Ohio Gang" and
their oil deals.

Traction Quiz Shows
PhonGy Stock Buying
By B. M. 7. Officers

A frank admission that the BIN.
T. could get along satisfactorily on
a 5-cent fare was made by Gerald
NJ. Dahl, chairman Of the board dur
ing the continuation Of the hearings
being conducted by Samuel Inter
myer, special counsel for the Transit
Commission.
"The fare is bound to be increased,
however" declared Dahl with self
assurance.
Stock in Wife's Name.
1t seems that Dahl personally
owns only three or four shares of
preferred stock Of that transit line
holding company. The 1908 shares
Of common stock Of that corDoration
which have been credited to Dahl are
in fact owned by a mysterious firm
known as the "Waubesa Corpora
ton" organized in Delaware and hav-
ing offices and records at some point
in Jersey City not known to Mr..
Dahl.
The point is, however, that owner
ship in the 1908 is vested in Mrs.

solidation."
What you mean is" suggested
Untermyer, "you bought because you
thought the fare would be raised"
Prolonged examination Of the wit
ness revealed the fact that the "Wau-
besa" owns 77,0S3 shares Of BIN. T,

and $500 shares Of PETERBOROUGH
stock. He was hazy when efforts

Tossing aside her coat and nat,

She tried to comfort her-tried

Mrs. Jerome gave no sign that

Sally had never known her to
cry like this. She had often
cried to get her own way, or
when she was frightened about

about Beau or Mile.
But this was different. She
cried in a despairing. broken
hearted sort of way. and Sally
knew that there was some real
cause for her grief this time.
Helpless for once. she sat back
m her heels and waited for the
storm to pass. And after 10
minutes or more, Mrs. .Terome'g
Robs became less violent. Present
l. she raised tAar-stained and
swollen face,
