This Way Out Please.

When 320 men of Caldwell, Kans., posing as harvest hands, became defiant Monday when the city officials refused their demands for food, Edward George, the mayor, formed a posse and escorted them out of town. They said that unless they got something to eat they would break into the stores. The officials then notified the town marshal and enlisted 25 armed enm. While the hands were mumbling threats the posse marched them to the depot and made them board the first outgoing freight train.
