A few minutes later he talked to Wolf on the sidewalk and asked him, "What's the matter?" The defendant replied he was tired and the "boys inside had been pulling his hat down."t Dusenberry under cross exam ination further stated, after Ijames fell to the sidewalk and lay like a dead man," he saw blood and "I turned away as I can't stand blood." Later . he secured a nurse and rode to 'the hospital In this city with his wife and Mrs, Ijames, at the latter's request. The witness testified he was a fellow employee with Wolf, who had charge of the cement plant section crew, and declared "he always treated me right."

TIDE WATER ASSOCIATED OIL COMPART VICTORY till depends on you AT HELPFUL .rgftaspCIATED.- PEftUERS, How SP is seeking now industry for your community febrr.'.'.,., sftllfP We thought you would be Interested In knowing what Southern Pacific is doing to encourage the location of new industries in your community and other communities along our lines. We have just conducted an extensive advertising campaign In national magazines and eastern news papers, telling about the Industrial opportunities in the West and offering help to executives who wanted job :-! specific Information about locating plants or branch plants in this territory. Southern Pacific is certainly not forgetting its first which is to help end the war as quickly as possible. But we are also thinking of the future. We are think ing of the million new people, the vast new indus tries, the rich natural resources of this area. We know that many eastern companies are planning postwar manufacturing and distribution facilities in new territories. We have consistently sought to develop manufacturing along our lines, for new industries are a major source of traffic. For this purpose we have long main tained an industrial department. And this is the reason Southern Pacific makes freight rates that make it pos sible for the industries we serve to assemble raw materials and market finished products. As one of the forces that helped de velop America west of the Mississippi, Southern Pacific cont inues its efforts to bring even greater prosperity to its territory, knowing that such prosperity will benefit our railroad, too. s.
