Splints Prevent Crippling SWEDISH NEWSPAPER MAN AGHAST AT FAST TRAVELING AMERICA To our hustling, bustling America came a visitor from the peaceful land of Sweden, Anton Ericksson of Stockholm. During his brief stay, he spent four days with the Bauer family at Woodlawn Park, making his exit last Friday afternoon for New York City. Mr. Ericksson is a famous newspaper man, being associated with the Stockholm Tidningen, the largest newspaper in Scandinavia. His journey to America aboard the S. S. Gripsholm, a Swedish liner, was both a business and a pleasure trip. The business side was concerned on his visits to a number of the large newspaper organizations in the country where he viewed their equipment and customs. He noted the improvements in order that the Swedish paper may be bettered, and also told the Amei~ icans what was going on in the newspaper business at Stockholm. Five days were spent at New York in this pursuit and about five at Chicago. Having received the necessary information, Mr. Ericksson arrived Monday at the Bauer home to enjoy a few days with a member of that fan* ily also a newspaper man, wno onre went to Sweden on similar business C.1.0. LAWYERS FILE COMPLAINT AT WASHINGTON CHARGE CONSPIRACY AT WOODSTOCK , Use of the city square and pork <for an open meeting of the C. I O. in Woodstock on September 23 was denied by the city council of that city at its meeting held on Friday evening of last week. The decision, by unanimous vote, was given following the reading of an application from Ralph Austin and Delbert Kniebusch, through a Chicago C. I. O laywer, which stated that the meeting was for the purpose of discussing the National Labor Relations act, commonly known as the Wagner act. However, the council offered the use of Olson park, at the north edge of the city, for the meeting, but put restrictions on the permit that the meeting be for local people and they were not, to bring in any delegations with a few of his impressions of our country. Even though he enjoyed his travels here immensely, he will tH glad to get back to the peace and quiet of his native land. Life here is too fast for him, with all our automobiles, streamliners, airplanes, etc., as compared with the easy-going Swedish ways where most of the traveling is done on bicycle. He» showed a great feeling toward this Old World country where depression is unknown. that complaints have been filed with Frank Murphy, U.S. attorney-general, against officials of the city of Woodstock, charging that a conspiracy exists between the city officials, tha officials of the Alemite Die Casting corporation, and other local business men and vigilante groups to deprive the rights of certain clients of these two lawyers under the National Labor Relations act.
