N I"' OLD VIGILANTES PUT MYSTIC SIGN (Continued from page one) what your country is fighting for! I am fighting for the solidarity of labor." Last Friday night at Finn hall be fore the Metal Mine Workers' union, Little said: Simply Piece of "Paper. A city ordinance is simply a piece of paper which can be torn up. The same can be said of the Constitution kpf the United States Following the identification, of, ^Little's body, local members of the a. W. W. telegraphed appeals for aid. A message Was sent to William Haywood at Chicago, and others to I. W. W. organization leaders in' the Southwest and thd Pacific coast. It was baid that a message was re ceived later from Haywood saying the resources of the organization would be employed to feting the 'lynchers to justice Threatened bv Governor. Salt Lake City, Utah, AUg. 2. Little, the I. W W. organizer, lynch ed yesterday at Butte, telegraphed Governor Campbell of Arizona from here Jnly 17, as follows, regarding the deportation from that state of members of the I. W. W.: "Understand that the mine owners mob will take same action at Globe and Miami, as was taken at Bisbee. The membership of the I. W. W. is getting- ttred of the lawlessness of the capitalistic class and will no looser stand tor such action. If you, as governor, cannot uphold the law, .we wilT take same into our own hands. WIN you act or most we?" In- reply- Governor Campbell said he felt sure no deportations could take place with the Federal troops stationed itr the district and that he was using H*. best effort* to protect rights of all sftfeens. Concfadiog, he said: "I resent your disloyal and un timely threats in view of my earnest efforts to bning law and order and such forces as will maintain some, and further- like* behavior on your part will be punished to the full ex tent Qf my authority:" Range Knew Him.

MAY CONVERT AUTO PLANTS TO AIRCRAFT vAevernment Call Upon Manufacturer* la Thought Likely. 'Detroit.Owners of automobiles, par ticularly those who have been accus tomed to discard their cars solely be ause newer models have been placed' upon the market, will do well to glve the highest degree of care to tue cars they now own. Brigadier General George O. Squier went to Detroit, and it is understood that the purpose of his visit was to confer with the manufacturers of au tomobiles in regard to obtaining their co-operation in the manufacture of aeroplanes. There are few factories in- the Unlt ed States that manufacture aeroplanes, and each of these factories makes a -different type of craft. The aggregate capacity of these factories is wholly inadequate to meet the-demands of the program of the aircraft production board, and it is therefore inevitable that the manufacturers of machinery which can be used as now made er whose plants can be adapted most readily to making parts for aeroplanes will be requested to give precedence to the manufacture of parts suitable for aircraft.
