Story of Joan VaJJean Has Parallel in Chicago When Man Is Arrested for Picking U,p Coal on Railroad Tracks. Chicago, 111. Victor Hugo's story of Jean Valjean, the man who suffer ed penalties for stealing a loaf of bread for his starving family, had a parallel In Chicago when William Booze, 41 years old, was arretted for stealing coal on the Chicago and Northwestern railroad tracks to keep his family from freezing to death. Since he lost his Job as a teamster two months ago Booze has experienc ed all the agonies of a poverty-stricken father with a wife and six chil dren dependent upon him for their dally bread. In the last few days he has walked many miles for a few Jobs shoveling snow. He would rave gone to the Ice fields but there would have been no way of providing for his wife and children In his absence. He haunted the ebployment bureaus. He went from house to house and from shop to shop, but no one would hire him. He was only one of many thousand men who were doing the same thing. The family had used all its food and coal. The father had no money and thought he mlgt pick up a few pieces of coal which dropped from the tenders of passing locomotives. He was doing this when arrested. "You must not lock me up. I've got to do something. Will somebody take a message to my wife at 2667 FultOn street," he pleaded of the po liceman at the West Chicago avenue station. "vj The desk sergeant promised that she w6uld be notified. Boze was then led to a cell and as he descended the dark stairs the desk sergeant wrote the word "lar ceny" In the book opposite his name.
