MOVES TO END CHICAGO STRIKE Army of Stikebreakers from New York Reported Ready to Run Cars Chicago, Aug. 2—(Special to Daily DemoacraO-With an army of strikebreakers from New York reported ready to step in and run Chicago’s surface cars, police prepared for war today. At the same time agencies of the city, state and federal government launched moves to end the city's taction tie-up. Police Chief Fitzmorris got in touch with officers of the national pard last night. Charles Egan of the bomb squad and Major John Baudor. who directed the police during the race riots, were called into conference with Fitzmorris. Cots were placed in every police Station. A large part of the force xas allowed to go home last night "to get one good night’s sleep.” James Waddell, hc-ad of a nationilly known strikebreaking agency etablished headquarters in a local btel. It was reported -that more ttatf*so experienced iwMnw-n and conductors from New York were held in local hotels waiting for word to start operation of the cars. Henry A.

traffic resumed without the help of strikebreakers. City officials and business men. after futile efforts to persuade Blair to join with his men in a peace meeting, planned to go over his head and make peace overtures to the board of control of the surface lines. Aiderman Schwartz of the council transportation committee, said he felt sure these men would meet the city officials at least “half way” for settlement of the controversy. Meanwhile Chicago motored to work again. Fleets of trucks, buses, flivvers, bicycles and motorcycles w’ere called out to move the army of workers to their jobs. The traffic congestion of yesterday was somewhat relieved today as drivers became more familiar with the emergency regulations. The first day's tie-up of the surface and elevated lines resulted in one death and more than 100 injured. 1 Steam roads augmented their suburban runs. One road announced it . was prepared today to haul 200,000 i passengers in and out of the loop. One-way traffic in loop streets , worked smoothly today. State street . one of the world's busiest thorough- ■ fares, was jammed with motor Vehicles moving steadily north. Thou- . sands of people rode to work in mo- ■ torboats. Lake Michigan shore line I swarmed with craft, put into operas tion for the emergency. I • ■ I Nelson Poynter, of Sullivan, Indi--1 ana, is visiting friends in this city.

AUTO BUSINESS IS STILL GOOD Review Shows Business Anchoring to Basis Principles of Soundness Cleveland. <J., Aug. 2—Business is ho! discouraged despite the coal and rail strikes, and “is anchoring to those basic principles which underlie sound business,” according to the monthly review of the Fourth Feder al Reserve Bank issued Saturday. Although strike? conditions have become a definite menace to iron and steel production and overshadow all considerations of business or prices in that industry and arc resulting in more uncertain conditions in the coal industry, encouragement is felt in other lines. Especially is this true in the automobile industry, which is an unusually busy period, the report states. One large motor truck company reported an increase of 40 per cent in production of the first quarter. Building continues at a rapid pace and farm implement linos are slowly recovering. Coal cargoes were very scarce, but the ore trade furnished employment for most of the lake vessels, while the grain trade took care of a fair amount’of tonnage. The rubber industry holds to its heavy production schedule. No particular change was noticed in the textile situation. Large Crowd Attended Both Day and Evening (Continued from page one) stands. The judging of horses and cattle was started this morning. The horses were judged in the green ring in front of the grand stand, while the cattle were judged near the west cattle barn. The horses, ponies and cattle, all bright and clean for the show, presented a fine sight. The judging would not be completed today owing to the large- number of exhibits. The Berne band, another Adams county organization of fine ability, furnished music for the fair today. The Geneva and Freemont Girls’ band, who furnished the music yestreday, drew much applause. Both are excellent musical organizations. Chicago—,“lf you must drink, try the lake and when that is gone, the ocean is always ready, to be tapped,” Judge Adams fojtl Thomas Andler.
