The nation wide railroad strike was extended this morning to the "bis four" operative brotherhoods ln the Chicago switching territory when 1300 engineers, firemen, conductors and brnkemeu left their posts on the Elgin, Jollet and Eastern railroad in protest against tho presence of National Guardsmen In the yards of the com pany. 7 V A NOW PLAYING From the Story by FANNY HURST Who Wrote "Humoresque" You have often heard of the picture "as good as Humoresque" some enthusiasts have claimed even better but you have never seen any such pictures and probably never will. Fannie Hurst wrote both "Humoresque" and "Just Around the Corner." Fan nie did not outdo Fannie, but she has given "Humor esque" a close call. At the previewing we remarked "Just Around the Corner" one of the best pictures we have seen in two years. There are no famous stars, no big sets, no million dollars spent but it is a picture all the way and of the type that has always appealed, to our patrons. mm V.A. RIALTO V -.r S IIS r .

Six companies of Illinois guardsmen entrained this morning for Jollet to go on strike duty, i Officers here did not know whether tho men already on duty there were to be relieved or whether the additional troops were being sent because of the wnlkout of big four brotherhood mem bers last night. The walkout of the big four brother hoods at Jollet is exclusively a local action ordered by Chairman Charles O'Day of the Jollet division of the unions. At a nine o'clock meeting last night he was Instructed by the men to notify the railroad executives of the Impend ing strike, unless the troops were re moved. It has not been learned whe ther the national officers have approv- etl of the local strike. Lieutenant Colonel Nelson Morris, in command of the troops, was notified of the action but told the men that he was without power to make any change in the pres ent situation, as he was under orders of state officials.

It. It. Ixadera Ilurd. Boiled. The telegram read: "In behalf of 25,000 Milking rail way shopmen lu the New York dis trict we endorse your stand in re fusing to accept the compromise proposition of President Harding. Located in a district exposed to the poison gas attack as represented by the lying propaganda of the railway executives, our members have stood "the attack without faltering and the morale of the striera is perfect. "-Many of the strikers are ex-sar-vice men who fought under the Stars und Stripes for democracy In the late war. These men have witnessed .our so-calledv American railway execu tives hire cheap Chinese and (Hindu labor to try and break the strike and under no circumMancos will these former soldiers agree to allow this conglomeration of unskilled foreign workmen to be considered as favored employes of the railroads in order to gratify the .autocratic desires, of the American railway kaisers for -a con dition of Industrial -slavery, for! rail way employes. " "Let us nssure you again we want no compromise and urge that the fight bo fought to a finish right now on its merits and tho present admin istration In control of our govern ment be forced to show whether it stands for real Americanism or the brand of Americanism represented by a few hard boiled railroad officials who would wreck-our entire country in their hiRt for power." Distrusts Labor Hoard. The purpose of the telegram. It was said, was to set up tho attitude of the strikers In the metropolitan dis trict townrd both tho railroad labor board and the administration. "We do not propose to be bound by any understanding which provides that we hall be put at tile mercy of the labor board in the disposition of seniority rights." The distrust of the labor board at this time, it was said, was due to the federal body's action of July 3 and again July 8 "when it-practically outlawed the six affiliated shop crafts unions which were participat ing in the strike." Orders Men to Quit . CLEVELAND, Aug. 9. Chief execu tives of the "big four" transportation brotherhoods have taken action re garding the endangering of lives of brotherhood members through the al leged action of armed guards in con nection with the shopmen's strike, and have telegraphed their members to re main away from company property if their lives are endangered. Warren G. Stone, president of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, when told that 1300 brotherhood men had quit at Jollet last night told the Assdciated Press representative that there would be 100 more similar cases soon If working conditions ut railroad yards anil shoos are not changed. "The men have got to the limit of endurance through abusive treatment from guards, and conditions have reached the breaking point," Mr. Stone said. "There will be 100 more similar cases soon it conditions are not . changed." Asked if the action of the Jollet men met with the approval of the brother hood beads, .Mr. Stone said: "The action does not require any ap. proval. ' Our men are not expected to work under such conditions as now prevail at many railroad terminals," Mr. Stone said. "I am telling them that where ever their lives are endangered by guards they should go home and stay there. They are justified In remaining away from railroad company property under existing conditions." Safe 7nU& for INFANTS and INVALIDS ASK.
