BOMB WRECKS CHICAGO STORE Re-Opening Os Ganjs War For Control Is Seen In Chicago Chicago, Nov. 21 U.R,' A branch of the Becker Clearing and Dyeing company, fostered and protected by the power of "Scarface Al" Capone, Chicago gang lord, was wrecked by a dynamite bomb today. The blast occurred within u block and a half of the home of John A. Swanson, state's attorney elect, who has promised to put the racketeers out of business when he takes office in December. Swanson's own home was wrecked by a bomb during tlie April primary. The Becker bombing occurred shortly after midnight. Several familiea lived above the cleaning shop but escaped injury. All of the windows were broken, and one wall was destroyed. Morris Becker, head of the cleaning company, laid the blast to the Master Cleaners' and Dyers' Association. He said the masters had been cutting prices in an effort to drive him out of business but that he had met all reductions. Becker sometime ago ran one of till 1 largest plants in Chicago but met financial difficulties, due, he said, to gangsters getting control of the business. He then took Capone into partnership for proection. John G. Clay, secretary-treasurer of the laundry and Dyehouse Chauffeurs' and Helpers’ union, was shot lo death Sunday night. His death was taken as the opening shot In another war to control the cleaning "racket ” o - Jeffersonville, Ind. — Mrs. Zeddie Weaver has filed suit for $2,999 damages against the Atlantic and Pacific Tea company, alleging she sustained injuries iu a fall in the defendant's store.

. It’s a neighbor-maker OVER in the bunkhouse the boys of the Bar-C outfit have Kansas City on the radio. In her Park Avenue apartment, the slim fingers of a famous r actress turn the dials, and the same music leaps forth. Forty miles north of Milwaukee, Chris Jonsen, the dirt farmer, is listening in on the same wave-length. The same sort of thing is going on everywhere, all over the country, at all hours of the day and night. Folks in Los Angeles see the same movies, and ride in the same automobiles that New Yorkers enjoy. The resident of Seattle wears the same sort of clothes, eats the same brand of bacon, and lives in the same kind of house as his neighbor in Portland, Maine. ' Advertising has done it. Advertising, the miracle worker, keeps everyone in the land attuned to the latest in everything. It has changed the buying habits of a nation. It is the great modern force that makes neighbors of the people of far countries, that brings the best of their customs to us, and takes ours to them. _ • • Reading the advertisements will keep you abreast of the times.
