Kierdorf, C. I. o. organizer, was
conducting an organization meet

answered a knock at the door to
be greeted by a cloud OF the gas.
Choking and crying, SO men ran
to the street.

building, and As minutes later the
eighth floor offices OF the United

ties. The bomb thrower escaped
by running down five flights OF
stairs.
Meanwhile, a stencil bomb was
thrown into the office of U. A. w.
local on the west side shortly be-
fore midnight.
Strikers took over the direction
of traffic in streets adjoining the
Highland Park plant of the Chrys-
Ter Corporation. Motorists were
refused permission to stop. Pedes-
trianS were Shunted to sidewalks
fartheSt removed from the plant.
Governor Frank Murphy ar
rived this morning from Florida
to announce a hands off" and
"watchful waiting" policy in the
automobile strike. He remained
only an hour, then took train
for Lansing.
The governor, who played a
leading role in settlement of the
General Motors strike, said he had
talked to both sides from Florida
by phone and that he was not
asked to intervene.
With IS 900 to 10000 automobile
workers on strike, big depart
ment store closed by a "sit-down,"
and a rash of smaller strikes
breaking out all over the city,
there prevailed a labor crisis un-
precedented in "the motor capital
of the world"
Negotiations between the Chrys-
Ter Corporation and the U. A. w.
reached a serious stage as result
of the company's institution OF
court proceedings designed to ouSt
the strikers, who have taken over
eight ChrySler plants in the De-
troit area.
Fight Due Saturday
Union officials must show cause
Saturday before Circuit Judge Al
Ian Campbell why the strikers
should not be forced to evacuate
the plants.
The Hudson Motor Car Com
pany fatty broke off relations
with the union when it Spurned
the demand that the U. A. W. be
recognized as the sole bargaining
agency. About 10000 Hudson
workers are affected by the strike
in this plant alone.
One bright spot was the indica-
ton that General Motors Corpora
ton would sign an agreement TO-
day with the union providing a
minimum hourly wage. one Of the
big stumbling blocks in the recent
44-day G. M. strike.
In Lansing, Mich, between 1000
and $500 employees of the REQ Mo-
tor Car Company were thrown out
Of work by a Sit-down strike which
followed two days Of futile nego-
tiationS between the company and

Il have patients who need me and
a possible minor operation"
Doctor Jameson was away on
his annual trip to Europe. Several
mionr operations were coming
Jonathan's way. He and the old
er man were on much better terms
than formerly. Jameson was un-
der an obligation to Jonathan
Kimber. 1t had CALLED him but
he had tacitly acknowledged it.
It had been a little matter of mis-
taken diagnosis. Jameson had
been called away on a case out of
town and his patient having
grown worse, Jonathan had been
called. He had made the second
diagnosis, and saved the woman
from consequences which, while
they might not have been seri-
Gus, would have been uncomfort-
able at least. But he had man
aged to cover Jameson, very neat
ly. When Jameson returned and
the report was made to him, he
had flushed, stammered, and lost
much of his refrigerated poise.
The daily independent., 1937-06-26

Jonathan had passed the matter
over; covering Jameson even when
the two men were alone and there
was no need for stately pretense.
And Jameson had been grateful
and had shown it,; not that graft
tude made him like the younger
man any better personally; on the
contrary, human nature being
what it is. And Jonathan had
been suddenly sorry for him. The
mistake was one that anyone
might make most medical
men had made it in their day.
But Jameson was old, he had al
ways been so sure of himself he
was the big frog in the little pud-
die, people were used to accept
ing his pronouncements and feel
ings that from them there could
be no appeal. Perhaps he had
grown a little careless, confident
that the king could do no wrong.
