wives of this strike-beleaguered city
of 1900 rationed their food supplies
today as their husbands looked with
alarm on rapidly dwindling coal piles
How long will it last?" was the
question on every side as the third
day of the general strike, growing out
of labor troubles at the American
Distilling Company's huge plant, was
ushered in by a. swir1ing snowstorrn.
Until Harry Donahue is fired as
chief of police, the strike committee

up our picket lines last Monday, all
this would have been avoided"
State and Federal labor conciliators
prepared to continue a. conference
with strike leaders and officials OF
the distilling company at nearby
Perior.
Resentment was growing among
many citizens and merchants against
the general strike.
The man on the street" and peo-
pie at home were tight-lipped in dis
cussing the situation, apparently fear
ing reprisals for criticisms but a few
merchants were openly hostile.
All business was paralyzed except
for emergency rations such as milk
for the sick, needy and small children
and coal deliveries, which the com
mittee permitted, under it's super
vision.

Miami, Fla, Feb. 6.-(AP)-Post-
master General James A. Farley to-
day had coupled smashing attack
on the Liberty League with a predic-
ton that the New Deal will find wide
spread support among capitalists.
The chief of staff of the Democra-

looking straight toward November
elections in an address here last
night when he declared:
"For every capitalist and indus

candidates for the Democratic nomin-
alton for governor, say In his first
campaign speech, which he is to de-

hook-up that will include the Char

Will he devote most of his speech to

will he devote most of it to discus

light on controversial issues here with

These and other questions are being
asked in political circles here today
where the forthcoming speech Is the
prevailing topic of conservation. Most
politial observers regard this speech
by Mr.. Hoey tonight-it will last from
8 to 8 o'clock-as the most important
single incident in the present cam
paign for the Democratic nomination
for governor. They maintain that 1t
will serve to outline the issues in the
campaign more than anything that
has developed so far and that it also
should serve to make it clear at the
outset whether Hoey is going to be
as strong candidate as his support
ers claim.
1t is generally conceded that for
