HIGH SCHOOL BOY
PREVENTS STRIKE
VIOLENCE
V P. A. Servic*.
ANSONIA, Conn.. Feb. 23.—With a
most heroic ourage. aided by a re
markable knowledge of foreign lan
guages, Joseph Grohl. a seventeen year
old high school boy, today prevented
over four thousand striking brass foun
dry workers from starting a riot
which would Inevitably have resulted
In bloodshed. The strikers, who are
mostly of foreign extraction, had been
brought to a pitch of wild excitement
by a number of inflammatory speeches
delivered by I. W. W. agitators when
Grohl suddenly appeared on the plat
form, and, in full sight of the angry'
mob, threw one of the speakers who
was boldly preaching treason, bodily
from the platform.
Before the excited throng could fully
grasp the meaning of his act, Grohl
commenced to address them in various
languages and Anally prevailed upon
the men to appoint a grievance com
mittee to lay their grievances before
the foundry companies. The crowd
was at first exceedingly angry at his
summary treatment of the treason
preaching foreigner but under the
| spell of his persuasion aided by his
j remarkable capacity for conversing In
| many tongues, soon calmed down and
consented to his suggestion that the
strikers present their grievances in
1 peaceable form. The crowd insisted
that he, himself, act as a member of
the grievance committee and he was
compelled to give his assent before
leaving the platform. Grohl, who la
himself thes on of foreign parents,
speaks seven languages
