The strikers have complete con- trol of four towns in the area, the port Santa Marta, Cienaga, Sevilla and Arecataca, having taken over the telegraph ! which were run by the United Fruit Company. All attempts of the company to import stabs have failed. The jails, until now used by the company and the local authorities to imprison militant workers, have been turned into prisons for scabs and strike- breakers by the strikers. The strike is understood to in- volve 32,000 plantation workers in the banana area, and their mili- tancy, together with the interven- tion of the Federal government and the Yankee imperialists, has set in- to motion a wave of workers’ soli- dari more strike. It was learned today that the United Fruit Company had ap- nealed to the American consulate in Senta Marta, which immediately no- tified the state department in Wash- ington. Urgent appeals have been sent by the fruit company to the United States government describ- ing the situation as “incre: menacing.” Yesterday both the government and the company were reported to the Canal Zone fleet to hold himself in readiness to give naval assistance in suppressing the strike and “pro- erty.” The strike is chiefiy directed bia. Further reports state that there are widespread strikes throughout the country. Thus far all federal troops sent against the strikers have been either sabotaged by the railroad workers or eaptured and disarmed by the plantation strikers. Numerous clashes are reported to have alread; occurred and a detachment of sol- diers, under a Colombian general, is proceeding in the direction of the strike area.
