Picked up and taken to the hospital, she spent six weeks there, six more weeks at home recovering from wounds which had punctured both lungs. She was going to appear against Coffman as soon as she was well enough. He began hounding her. "He bothered me-called me-even followed me. I would have left Dallas but I had no money. He had even cost me my job." He constantly intercepted her on the street, slapped her. "He called me . . . and told me he would kill me if I appeared against...
...then became a grand duchy with a Parliament of its own and wide autonomous rights. In 1905 the Finns went on a national strike against the Tsar's usurpation of their rights, and unprecedentedly won. The Red Terror that came with the 1917 Russian Bolshevik revolution was bad enough: the White Guard Terror which followed was even worse. The Finns are therefore used to trouble...
William Benjamin ("Bill") Spofford, Episcopalian, longtime editor of The Witness, longtime secretary of the Church League for Industrial Democracy.

Meantime, October railroad carloadings were up 18.7% over last year. This was not surprising. For 15 years, whether traffic is good or bad, trucks have tended to do a little better than railroads. In 1925, when anybody with enough spare cash for a second-hand truck could go into the trucking business, trucks carried less than 2% of all U. S. freight. The rest was taken care of by the railroads (76%), waterways (17%), pipe lines (5%). By 1937 trucks were up to 5%, railroads down to 66%, and the process apparently still goes...
