HELD ON CHARGE OF BLOCKING RAIL TRAFFIC Local police continue to frown upon the habits of some of the citizens of Independence who use the Missouri Pacific Railroad tracks, near the light plant for a dormitory. Shortly after 3 o'clock Wednesday afternoon a train was brought to a stop to keep from decapitating Perry Kittle, 46 years old, 115 East Walnut Street; and Dave Thompson of no particular address. Upon call of the trainmen police officers took both into custody and have charged them with blocking traffic on the railroad, which is tantamount to interfering with inter-state commerce. When they were arraigned before Justice Thomas H. Knight today, both plead "not guilty," and were sent to the county jail to await hear- ing in this local court, when it was found that they could not post bonds in the amount of $800 each.
