 After the telegram to Morrison had been approved, delegates passed a resolution authorizing o. I. O. executive officers to issue Q call for c national convention. The conven. ton, the resolution stated, was to be called when the officers deemed 1t advisable and expedient."
 Attacks A. F. Of |.
 Murray used the resolution as Q vehicle for another attack upon the A. r of L. and to defend the action which led to the suspension of the Q. I. O. unions. he said the 0. I. O
 unions made Q promise to organize the mass production workers.
 We are keeping that promise" he said.
 Lewis, apparently recovered from an attack of dysentary which kept him in his hotel room for 48 hours, paced back and forth on the speak, eks' platform as Murray spoke.
 Lewis presided over today's meet- ing.
 Rubber Workers Union
 He called the session to order at il:i0 a. m. and Sherman H. Dal. rymple, president of the United Rubber Workers of America, made report of the unions activities.
 He claimed a membership of 78,000 in 136 local unions and said it was responsible for wage increases of B l.3 per cent since 1884 and es- abolished @ six-hour day in some tire and tube plants.
 Dalrymple said thousands of rub- Der workers were being laid of due chiefly to @ decline in business. But, ing the occasion to revive old fears he said, certain employers "are us- abount unionism in an effort to dis- rupt our organization"
 He charged that the Republic Steel corporation, one of the inde- pendent steel operators fighting the 0. I. O., is aiding and abetting'' resistance by the Goodyear Tire and Rubber company to unionization of It's Gadsden, Ala., workers.
 Dalrymple appealed to 0. I. o. leaders to units in @ drive to union- i2e all workers in the south.

 Washington Suggested
 "It is suggested that this prelil11- mary meeting be held in Washing ton during the week of October 26, 1887.
 Please advise"
 Philip Murray, chairman of the steel workers organizing committee, defended as sincere" the original o. I, o. proposal that two commit tees of 100 members from each or- ganlzation meet to seek an end to the labor war.
 T want the country to know that the offer was made in good faith and in all sincerity" Murray said.
 we are not interested in 6 long distance argument. We want unity in the labor movement"

 Mrs Bucklyn, only partly visible through the opened door, was heard t0 reply:
 Anything you say, MT. Brown" and then she hastily inquired, DO you think I'll be safe2"
 Brown assured everything will be nll right" and went back to his con- ference with Butler and Sheriff Brown.
 The apparent settlement of the dispute then was blasted as justice Haley announced T say she can't SO in."
 Sheriff Brown turned on the jus- tice with Q demand, land who sent you hefea"
 'Perhaps the same people who sent you here," Haley replied tes- tiiy.
 Committeeman Brown jumped in. to the breach and flatly declared under no circumstances will Miss xnhis 60 if."
 Butler insisted T wish Miss The his to teach the school this morn- ing"
 Committeeman Brown reiterated sand l wish she wouldn't and I say she is not going in. You can get all the sheriffs this side of hell and she won't get in."
 Sheriff Brown protested T don't like that sort of language" and Brown apologized for his profanity, ''f guess one Brown can't bluff an. other Brown" he observed with O smile.
 At this point Miss 1nnis tried to rush the door, Brown hopped back to the steps and blocked her way.
 T am not using force" he ad- dressed Sheriff Brown, T am rnere- iy getting in her way"
The Waterbury Democrat., 1937-10-15

Miss Innis set off on Q run for the rear door. Brown bolted through the front entrance, found there was no key to the back door SO he nailed the passage closed. Frustrated, Miss Innis returned to Buffers side as the latter demanded the keys to the building.
 How you do know I've got thcm7" queried Brown. q might give them to you some day when I get around to It."
 "Butler, you don't know what you're talking about and you never did. It's about time you woke up and found out"
 AS Butler went into Q huddle with Town Counsel Benjamin II. Hewitt on his legal rights, parents raised c cry to "Send the children home until this mess blows over."
 Temporarily defeated, Butler left the scene leaving Brown still guardS ing the doorway and Mrs. Bucklyn peering anxiously through e win' dow, still locked in the classroom.
 Pupils by this time had been permitted to enter the school and an attempt was made by Mrs Bucklyn to conduct an orderly class
 Within an hour Butler was back with Sheriff Brown and asked per. mission to enter the building with. out Miss Innis. It was granted, Justice Haley guarded the door Os they entered.
 T know what you want, MT. But ler," said Mrs. Buoklyn, but they're locked in the safe of my lawyer, George Curtis Morgan at New Lon. don." She referred to the records taken from the classroom last night by Comtnitteeman Brown.
 Butler drove away in his auto' mobile.

 The City of Bangor, which fi- nanced the burial, provided for the dead desperado new double-breast- ed oxford gray suit and aii inexpen- sive coffin covered with gray cloth.
 It was expected the city would be reimbursed from the $5,000 cash found neatly bundled in the sedan in which the outlaws rode to their down-east rendezvous with death.
 Enroute to the cemetery the hearse passed Eastern Maine Gen. eral hospital where Walter Walsh. trick shot of the d-men, is recoy- ering from Q shoulder wound suf- fered during the gun battle.
 Only 13 minutes elapsed between removal of the body from the uri- dertaking establishment and the burial.
 Encircling the grave were four newsmen, two camerannen, c ceme- tery official and Grave-digger Jim Meehan. Striking the side of hte grave, the casket's cover was cracked but not enough to prevent its being lowered.
