DUVALL FLEES FROM WOMEN \ ■' " (Continued From Page 1) and a participant in numerous conferences pertaining to the political welfare of Senator James E. Watson. Next to exit was George V. Coffin, Republican county chairman and boss of the G. O. P. ball-bearing machine of which Duvall is a leading cog. Then out came O. D. Haskett, John A. George and John W. Friday, the board of safety members. Fire Chief Jesse A. Hutsell, a Coffin machine chieftain, also was' in conference with Duvall. Delegation Intact Mrs. O’Brien, the "Mother Jones" to the local strikers kept her delegation intact, even after the failure to see the mayor. "Come on girls," she said, "We'll all go out to my house and get something to eat. The grocer is a good friend of mine.” They piled into automobiles. Mrs. O'Brien said after food had secured the women would start, a "peaceful persuasion" campaign around Highland Ave. car barns this afternoon in an attempt to induce workers to leave "their cars. Taking Food Away "Tell these men Jhey’re taking food away from your children. They won’t go on and work after that if they've got any red blood in their veins, ,f she advised the worn en. The march to the city hall was preceded by a meetting in Plumbers' Hall. "We've got to do something or we’ll all starve," said Mrs. O’Brien, addressing the meeting. Mrs. O'Brien, the mother-in-law of one of the striking employes, urged the women to board the street cars and seek to induce motormen and conductors to join strikers. “I’m willing to ride on the cow catcher and talk to the motorman!" she exclaimed. Mrs. O'Brien said the visit to Mayor Duvall should be undertaken immediately, before the city's chief executive left on vacation. Governor Jackson left today for a trip which #lll last until Aug. 10, without announcing any decision on a request of a citizens' committee that he appoint a mediation committee to consider the strike. Two More Cited Meanwhile, in Federal Court, two more union men, Joe Wigginton, 1336 N. Illinois St., and Oscar R. Southern, R. R. 1, Bainbridge, were cited on contempt of court charges, growing out of acts of violence in connection with the strike. ' Two other strikers, already cited, were questioned by Federal officials. Robert Armstrong and John M. Pai*ker, vice presidents at the Amalgamated Association of Street and Electric Railway Employes, .probably will tried before a jury on charges of contempt against the court, it was indicated. Frank P. Baker, attorney for the two men, declared that he would demand a jury trial for them, if answers to the charges, to be filed by Monday., are overruled. United States District Attorney Albert Ward said that he probably grould not oppose a jury trial, if it was asked, since hq believes the case comes under the Clayton Act, which provides for jury {rial on request. The Clayton Act specifically limits penalities on certain contempt charges. Parker and Armstrong were re leased on bonds of SIO,OOO each Thursday, after being cited for contempt before Federal Judge Robert C. Baltzell in connection with the strike. Attorneys asked a few days in which to study thd complaint and prepare an answer. Preparation of the answer to the
