Police and fire officials began an investigation into alleged indica-a tions that the explosion may have been the result of labor troubles. 40 Injured Treated. By 9 o'clock, 40 persons had been taken to the police emergency hos- pital for treatment for cuts and burns. Several others had been tak- en to other hospitals. The blast occurred in the rooms of the Beverly Hills Frocks, Inc., on the fifth floor, where police saidI there had been labor trouble con- sequent to a strike a month ago. They expressed belief that the explosion had been caused by an accumulation of gas but were in- yestigating the manner in which it was set off. They gave considerable credence to reports the gas had been ignited when a Mexican youth, employed in the shop, lit a cigaret. Reid Hits Employment of Cheap Alien Labor 0 --, E DEAL.

Mayor Jim Walker Runs Amuck of Red; Nearly Starts Fight (By Associated Press) NEW YORK, Oct. 17. - Sixteen persons were under arrest today as the result of a series of Coimunist 1 I riots which came to a climax when a party of Reds invaded city hall and one of them called Mayor James J.

I would rather be a member of my working class than one of your gyafting officials. You are a grafting Tammany poli- tician and a crook." The mayor rose from his seat and replied, "That little remark prompts me to come down and thrash the life out of you." a~ay FOUR DAYS ONLY W.nivre .Do You LooK efore You u.Y9 (By Associated Press) Rev.
