GRUNAU, FREED
ON BAIL, TRIES
TO END STRIKE
Expected to Call Another Mass
Meeting of Insurgent Rail
Men in Chicago.
CHICAGO, April 22.—John Grunau,
. loader of the striking railroad switchmen,
was back in Chicago today, free from Jail
on bond.
Following the breakup of the strikers'
mass meeting called yesterday to of
ficially end the strike. Shannon Jones and
R. S. Murphy, Grunau aids, led groups
of strikers back to their jobs.
They were called •'rebels” and ‘‘trait-,
ors" when they attempted to hare the
strikers’ meeting vote to end the strike.
Railroad officials report the sitution
nearly normal.
NEW MEN REPLACE
STRIKERS HERE
Thirty-eight crews were working in
the Big Four yards here today and
fifty-nine trains, with 1,71$ loaded cars,
were moved in and out of the terminal
in the last twenty-four hours.
Many officials and clerks of the Big
Four who have been working as switch
men have been relieved from duty and
the engines were turned over to newly
employed men.
Seventy-eight new men have been em
ployed by the Big Four.
The Pennsylvania railroad reported
that one man had returned to work as
a result of the ultimatum calling on all
switchmeu who wished to continue in
the service to report for duty.
Strikers continued to hold meetings in
the Labor Temple "and leaders held to
the position that tb° railroad labor
board would be forced to give the na
tional yardmen's committee a hearing.
While improvement of freight traffic
conditions throughout the country was
reflected in the number of cars moved
here, manufacturers of the city were
•aid to be encountering more serious
obstacles to operation each hour as
stocks of various parts ant materials
were being depleted.
George >f. Dickson, president and gen
eral manager of the National Motor Car
and Vehicle Company, said ■ complete
shutdown of that company's plant was
Inevitable within the next day or two, re
gardless of any strike settlement that
may be reached.
SEEKS TO HALT
GAS SHORTAGE
\
Steps wae taken today by the Citl
sens Gas Company, with the support of
the Interstate Commerce Commission, to
get a solid train of coal-laden cars
through to Indianapolis from Roanoke,
Va., as a measure of relief from the
threatened gas famine
Gas consumption here yesterday was
S, 000,000 cubic feet and in that period
only 7,900.000 cubic feet was made.
The state public service commission
has joined with the gas company in
urging the Interstate Commerce Com
mission to find a remedy for the situation.
The plan to get a trainload of coai from
the Virginia mine fields will furnish relief
once its success Is assured.
It is hoped the railroads can be
persuaded to send the train through
under orders similar to those under
■which a passenger train moves, so that
etrlke conditions In switching yards may
not cause any delay.
A committee of Indianapolis restaurant
men visited J. D. Forrest, general man-
Mj* of the gas company, to request that
hormal gas pressure be maintained in the
pipes from 5:30 o'clock in the morning
until 9 o'clock.
Mr. Forrest said that luaif a.faoasure
would resuit in a complete shutdown
of the gas plant within a short time,
e* the mealtime consumption of yesterday
under present regulations was ?j*) p er
cent of normal.

Post Toasties
They could have been called just "corn flakes!’
but their superiority entitled them to a dis
tinctive name.
Bear this in mind when ordering corn flakes.
That name is your protection, as well as ours.
Specify Post Toasties to your grocer and you
are sure of satisfaction.
Post Toasties are in greater demand
throughout the United States than other
kinds of corn flakes.
There’s a flavor, a substance and a satisfac

ty-five parks, with an area of 1,901.0
acres, and a connecting system of park
boulevards.
Families in the city are small compared
to other portions of the country ,the
average being 4.2.
The average for the cities of the
country is 4.6 and for rural districts 6.
Small families here are said to be
due to the small per cent of foreigners
living in the city.
Indianapolis has never harbored a very
large foreign element, while negroes are
said to make up about 18 per cent of the
population.
Indianapolis was established just a

which has made possible the wonderful
growth during the past century.

GAS SITIATION
Supplies of coal and oil have not actually improved since last
report, but prospects of improvement on coal carrying roads con
tinue to grow brighter.
We are continuing the improved pressure which we began Tues
day morning, but this lias so greatly increased consumption that
we are doubtful about being able to keep it up under present con
ditions. Consumption increased at rate of 1.250,000 cubic feet
daily as a result of this improvement. We desire to continue it,
but urge economy in use of gas.
The hours of full pressure remain unchanged—
