HARRIS DIRECTS NEW BRITAIN RELIEF
Street Walker
 May Quit City
Dorothy Brown Picked Up
 Again-Case Continued

One of Abbott avenues best known residents, best known to the police at least, was arrested at 3 o'clock this morning by Patrol man John Winston and charged with street walking. The arrest was made In connection with the police's determined drive to rid the avenue of a number of unde- sirables. The person taken into custody was Dorothy Brown, 26, of 229 Abbott avenue. She is more familiarly known to her associates and the police as Lon Chaney":.
 In explaining the street walk ing charge, Officer Winston was asked if he had ever been the ac- cused on the street late at night. "Plenty of times," was the an- swer. Sometimes l, or 3 o'clock in the morning, but it's hard to catch her. As soon as she spots you, she runs through alleys and backyards and makes a getaway. This morning I chased her through two yards and found her hiding on the yeranda of a third floor tene- ment"
 The accused has been taken in- to custody several times within the past year, twice in connection with complaints that white men have been waylaid and "rolled" in that section of the city.
 Judge T. V. Meyer informed the defendant today that he was de- termined to send her to the state farm for women to rid the city of her presence for few months, but allowed her days continuance to permit her to consult counsel for an appeal, if she so desired. Ab- bolt avenue without Lon Clancy around might give the police respite, is apparently the opinion of the court.

Outlawry of
 Strikes Edict
 Has Been Issued

Berlin, Oct 4-(UP)-A decree considered tantamount to govern ment outlawry of strikes was issued to-day by the ministry of labor as part of the governments "one- year plan."
 Employers are entitled to shorten working hours, cut wages corre- spondingly, and employ additional labor. If the wage scale is reduced below collective wage agreements between employees and employers, the former are denied the right to strike.
 In case of strikes protesting cur tailment of hours and wages, enl- ployers may sue labor trades unions for damages due to loss of revenue during any stoppage of work.
 The decree was considered an in- dication that the government, be- sides fighting communism, is steal ing some of the thunder of Adolf Hitler's nazis, who have always claimed outlawry and suppression of strikes as one of their chief aims.
