SHERIFF CALLS
FOR TROOPS IN
/. FARM UPRISING
Demand From Sioux City
Zone Made After Depu-
ties Are Trapped, Stoned.
HELD BEYOND CONTROL
PiCketerS Are Angry Over
Move to Clear Roads,
Governor Told.
By nited Press

By United Press
SIOUX CITY, Ia, Sept. is. -
Sheriff John A. Davenport today
telephoned Governor Dan w
Turner asking that the militia be
sent here, after a critical situation
developed in the farm strike block
ade of highways leading to the city.
Governor Turner. who previously
had refused requests for the ma
tional guard, did not indicate i'm
mediately what action he would
take.
Sheriff Davenport called on the
Governor for aid after the picket
forces lured a group of his deputies
into trap, and stoned them Sc
verely.
The men were stoned in retalia-
ton for arrests of fifteen pickets by
deputies Thursday in foray in
which night clubs were swung free
ly, and a roadside picket camp
burned.
Pickets in Angry Mood
Davenport informed the Governor
that he fears further violence unless
militia is sent into the area.
He said his force of deputies is
insufficient to prevent renewed out
breaks, which he believed imminent
due to the high feeling aroused by
the clash of deputies and farmers.
The pickets, he said, are in an
angry mood due to organized efforts
of the sheriff's forces to disperse
them.
Davenport said the picketers re-
sorted to a ruse to get the sheriff S
deputies out on the highways.
One of the pickets telephoned the
sheriff's office saying help was
needed by truckers to get through
the picket lines.
Four carloads of deputies re-
Sponded, and passed unchallenged
through the picket lines.
When they turned about after
finding no one in need of help they
were met by the pickets with a hail
of missiles. Rocks and clubs were
thrown at the cars loaded with of
flcers. Windshields were broken and
deputies bruised.
Protest Meeting is Held
The incident so angered the
sheriff that he immediately tele-
phoned the Governor declaring that
the situation here is beyond nv
control"
I call on you to open our high
ways for a resumption of business
throughout the Sioux City terri
tory
The pickets seek to raise the price
of farm products by an embargo of
produce on the local market.
Turner said he still hoped to
settle the matter without resorting
to the use of militia.
Approximately 300 business men
attended a protest meeting here
Thursday night, at which speakers
declared the blockades on Sioux
City highways have cost the city
thousands of dollars daily in lost
trade.
