BROWDER GETS HOT RECEPTION INTERRA HAUTE Court Denies Injunction to Communist Presiden- tial Candidate TERRE HAUTE, Indiana, 21—Earl W. Browder, candidate of the Communist Party, who was forced by a belligerent ripe egg and tomato crowd to abandon his attempt to make a radio campaign speech last Oct. night, lost a court decision today| when Judge Alvert Owens denied his petition for an injunction to restrain the local authorities from interference with his speaking en- gagement here. The injunction was almed at the city officials who jailed Browder overnight on a vagrancy charge when he came here September 30 to address a party rally. It wasn't the officials who kept| him from the microphone last night but a crowd that blocked the en- trances to the radio station and pelted him and his associates with overripe tomatoes and eggs when they arrived. The three members of the party received slight injuries as missiles were exchanged. Judge Owens, in denying the injunction, said that if the injunc- tion was intended to prevent inter- ference with Browder's radio speech “that time has passed and there is really no cause for a decision now.” Browder's attorneys insisted how- ever that the Judge make a ruling which he did, denying the injunc- tion petition. The Communist Presidential no- minee shifted his hotel rooms dur- ing the early morning because, he said, of warning from Chief of Po- lic Yates “that a mob might at- tempt to ride him out of town.” SALMON SOLD HERE Two packer boats delivered sal- mon trips in the only business on the Juneau fish market today. The Co-op packer Revilla, Capt. Pete Holmberg, was in with 1,500 pounds of king salmon and the New Eng- land Fish Co. packer Fern, Capt. John Lowell, brought in 4,000 pounds. e BODY SOUTH ON LOUISE The body of Henry R.
