posing the firm of C. C. Quinlan & Co.,

SHE SUES FOR PROPERTY
Marcel Wllle, organizer for the Journey-
men bakers, denies the statement made
yeslenlny at I lie Vale bakery that none
of its men went out when the strike wns
cnlled May 1. Wllle declares that Charles
Warner, foremnn In the bread department,
walked out as did also A. O. Volk, fore-
man of the CaltS division of the Yale
hakeshop. The latter returned to work
May 253. Walter Smith, a helper ou bread,
who struck. Wllle says. Is now working
In i lie Home bakery.
Wllle went up to Guthrie yesterday to
«ee Labor Commissioner Daugherty about
the allegation that the Vale shop adver-
tised for ten men In a St. Louis German
paper %ltliout stating in the advertise-
ment that a strike is on here. The fine
for such an offense may be $300 to $1,000
snd rrom a month to a year In prison
or both Daugherty told Wllle to get tlie
letter from the newspaper ordering the
insertion of the advertisement, which Vale
says he knows nothing about.
"I'm not hunting any controversy In
print.'' said Wllle this morning, "but when
the time comes I'll be there with the evi-
dence."
c. F. Davis who represents the em-
ployers. says nothing new has developed
In the strike situation from the master
bakers' point of view. They are standing
pat.
"I talked with Flnrry Vale about tho
alleged advertisement In n Kt. Louis Her-
man newspaper," said Mr Dnvls, "and
he was much surprised when he heard
the want ad had been Inserted. I learn
also that a similar advertisement wns In-
serted In n Kansas City dally by un
known persons."
In 52 hours there has been no fir*
alarm turned In and the department has
not heen out on a run. This Is the long
est period the fire department has idled,
for more than eight months.
For awhile the last two months there
were times when the department was cal-
led out on an average of four cnlls a dny.
i.ft ween May 7 and May H the department
made 12 runs In 12 hoyrs, the blggent
record yet. Two of these, uowever, were
false alarms.
