 In the black night, in which only hand flash lights, the lights of automobiles, candles, and a few privately owned power plants pro- vided the only illumination, auth critics worked frenziedly to get the power restored. Nothing availed md the only relief was that which came with dawn and daylight.
 Unable to locate the leader of the local of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, an American Federation of Labor affiliate, to which the strikers be- long, Police Chief Roy Anderson ordered his arrest. He was under stood to be A. R. Wright and he was nowhere to be found. Ander- son felt his presence was essential If the power service was to be re- sumed. No charge was made against him.
 The strike was apparently an outgrowth of @ jurisdictional dis- pute between the IBEW local and an independent union, but none of the strikers would discuss his reaS- ons for striking or give the name of the leaders. They paraded in lock in front of the plant, lighting their way with hand torch- es, hooting and cat-calling. There had been no warning of the strike.
 Governor on Telephone
 Gov. Forrest Donnel of Missouri was on the telephone from Jeffer- son City, trying to end the strike. He talked to officials of the Kansas City Power and Light company, but he was unable to locate Wright. He wanted to ask him to order the workers back pending negotiations.
 Chief Anderson drove to the plant in 6 squad car and found 22 lock- stepping pickets on duty.
 Kansas City, Kalls., town of l22,000 across the Missouri river was not affected. Its municipaily owned power plant continued op- erating,
 But Kansas City, Mo, a city of 100000, It's suburbs and many near- by small towns in western Missouri and eastern Kansas were blacked out almost completely. Tn Q few sections there were gas street lights.
 V. P. Shoemaker, company vice. president in charge of the plant, went with police escort to talk with the strikers but said he could not learn the cause of the strike.
