MARION STRIKERS MAY HOLD PARADE Wholesale Arrests in Riot and Troopers Apparently Fail to Halt Plans. By the Associated Press. MARION, N. C,, September 2.—Pres- ence of armed State troops, recent wholesale arrests of union sympathizers and an “anti-parade ordinance,” passed by the local board of aldermen, appar- ently failed to alter Marion's Labor day celebration plans. ‘Twenty-six alleged participants in last Friday night's riot, which occurred after a strike in the Clinchfield Mill here, were in jail. They were among the 76 arrested on charges of inciting a riot as Sheriff Oscar Adkins and his depu- ties attempted to break up disorders in the Clinchfield Mill district. Jail Filled With Offenders. Serving of 148 warrants sworn out by the sheriff ceased when the jail was filled and it was determined that many of those sought had left the village. Those for whom warrants were issued included Alfred Hoffman, Scouthern or- ganizer for the United Textile Workers of America. Hoffman and 49 others ar- ranged bond. Labor leaders, with Hoffman as their spokesman, refused to comment on the status of the parade, stating an an- nouncement would be made at a mass ‘meeting this afternoon. Hoffman's only contment on the parade was: “Let the others wait and see what we do. How- ever, there is not going to be any dis- order.” Labor Officials to Attend Fetes. Hoffman said 200 officials and desig- nated delegates and 600 other members of unions in other parts of the State had sent word they would be present. A meeting of the McDowell County commissioners was called for today to discuss passage of an anti-parade ordi- nance similar to that of this city. The Clinchfield & Marion Manufacturing Co. villages are outside the city limits of Marion. . Alexandria Home Damaged. Spectal Dispatch to The Star.

SHIP SIGHTS PONTOONS. l Identity of Wreckage Off Brazilian Coast Is Unknown. ‘Three pontoons were sighted by the steamship Rubly Keys yesterday about five miles northwest of Puta Maya lighthouse, off the coast of Brazil, ac- cording to a radio dispatch received at Coast Guard headquarters here from the master of the steamship. The radio message, relayed to Wash- ington by the naval radio station at Key West, Fla., contained no informa- tion as to the possible identity of the pontoons. TO SEEK FEDERAL AID FOR ALASKA SHIPPING Jefferson Myers, Returning From Tour, Says Tourist Hotels Are Also Needed. By the Assoclated Press. PORTLAND, Oreg., September 2.— Jefferson Myers, Oregon member of the United States Shipping Board, here to-. day after a tour of Alaska, declared the Northern Territory needed uninterrupt- ed shipping service from this country rather than four or five months out of the year and that he intended to seek Government aid with that end in view. Mr. Myers declared that to increase the tourist travel and draw investors to Alaska five hotels should be constructed, one in each of the five cities, at a cost of $1,000,000. “It is probable the ship owners would build these hotels if they were able to see their way in giving continuous year- round service to Alaska,” he said. “They need something to help them over the worst of the Winter months.” Mr. Myers said that excellent oper- ators are in charge of ship lines to Alaska and during the Summer months give good service, but during six or seven months of the year “that huge territory is cut off from us.” “The operators are convinced they cannot, give continuous service without help from the Government through mail contracts,” he said.
