that they naw signs of an attempt to

Tho question of the flourcn of the
funds with which the strike Is being
carried on hus presented tho most
difficult problem. Thus far agents
huvo succeeded In determining only
that sufficient money Is available to
finance tho movement nnd to con
tlnun tho spread of tho "one big

however, somo of this money was
furnished by groups formerly con
