JUDGE GARY TO MEET PROBERS [Steel Chief to Testify on Wednesday WASHINGTON, Sept. 27.—{United Press.)-—The senate labor committee, | which ts conducting the investigation into the steel strike, will hear the employers’ side of the controversy next Wednesday, when Judge Gary, head of the United States Steel cor- Labor's side, the committeemen feel, has been presented by John Fitzpatrick, leader of the strikers, agd Samuel Gompers, head of the Afherican Federation of Labor, During the recess of the commit- tee hearings, efforts to get employ- ers to agree to arbitration will go forward. Fitzpatrick has already said that an agreement to arbitrate would bring the strikers back to the mills. The arbitration ‘statement was thing that senators got from Fitzpatrick. From Gompers the learned That the steel strike was in- evitable because of conditions in the industry. That labor was seeking its “day in court.” Labor's view of the strike and the story of the events that led = to the walkout, with af account of the efforts of Gompers and Wilson ito halt it.

CRISIS NEARS IN GARY ZONE GARY, Ind., Sept Sept. aaa me Press.)—Gary, steel To guard against trouble workers and strikers, 300 Gary men, largely ex-soldiers, formed them- selves into companies of special police today, At the same time strikers urged their pickets to be- come more aggressive. Need for this, they said, was shown by the fact that many returned to work yester- day. Itewas claimed that 2,500 men were within the steel company’s walls and that steel was being turned "| out, altho in reduced quantities. Pickets, however, faced the possi- bility of legal restraint. Late yes |terday Federal Judge Landis grant- ed the Pollak Steel company, South Chicago, a temporary injunction prohibiting union officials and pick- ets from interfering with those who desire to return to work. Labor Men Back : Stevedore Strike SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 27.— (United Press.)—The cause of the riggers and stevedores anions’ strike was advanced today with the backing of the San Francisco Labor council. Daniel C. Murphy, president of the State Federation of Labor, was to head a committee of the council that planned to call upon the Waterfront Employers’ union and demand that the questions at tssue be submitted to an impartial board for arbitration, The labor council indorsed the waterfront strike at 1:30 a, m, to- day, after a stormy session. The strike, which has been on since September 15, may be sald to result from competition of men with machinery. The strikers declare not sufficient men are maintained in the various shifts to keep pace with modern ma- chinery used in loading and unload ing ships. ok Ss Cleveland Strikers Round Up Recruits CLEVELAND, Ohio, Sept. 27. With nothing to do in Cleveland be- cause all steel plants here are tied up, union organizers made a foray into the surrounding country in the hope of tying up unaffected steel plants. For the next few ei their atten- tion will be centered on Canton, Lorain and Cambridge. Lorain and Cambridge have so far successfully withstood the shock of the strike.
