AVOID TROUBLE

One oil company, not named by

Fell charged.
Two of the major companies
which are not on strike but which
are being picketed said they were
not delivering gasoline because
lit might mean trouble and vio-
lence. They would not assume
the risk of injured employees or
damaged equipment.
Fell said that some outlying
stations were being furnished
with gasoline by outlaw" runners
from out of state but that the
amount of gas thus distributed
was merely a drop in the
bucket" and the union was ignor-
ing it.
The Shell Oil Co. and other firms
were reported delivering gasoline
to Battle Creek, Jackson and other
cities in tank cars sent from Illi-
nois. While supplies were scarce
upstate, no h hortages were re-
ported.
