When John L. Lewis gave the or- der throwing 70,000 men out of work in the plants of Repub- i lic Steel, Inland Farley Steel and the Youngstown Sheet and Tube company, hard-boiled Tom Girdler, president of the American Steel and Iron institute and chair- man of the board of the Republic ers housed in the Republic plants in Ohio and Illinois, so that despite the strike Republic was still turning out steel. In Warren and Niles, Ohio, postal authorities refused to deliver parcel post packages containing food and clothing to workers inside the plants. This action brought from Republic a protest to Postmaster ey, requesting that he issue orders to postmasters to see that all legally presented and post paid mail be delivered regardless of picket lines. “Unless you see fit to comply with this request, which we believe to be entirely within our legal rights,” the message said, “we shall feel as may be available to us in the premises.” Capitalizing on the action of local postmasters, Ohio pickets issued a printed ultimatum to loyal steel em- ployes. “Four departments of the United States government are fight. ing on our side." id, and added: “Extra precautions will be taken throughout the next 12 hours to guarantee your safety in leaving the plant. After that time your safety will be your own responsibility.” The four departments of the gov- ernment believed to have been re- ferred to are the post office, labor department, labor relations board and interstate commerce commis- its It was Sen.

The organization was formed be- cause we wanted an independent labor organization, not one affiliated with any national union.” EADING the election returns of an overwhelming Democratic landslide last November, Charles Michelson, publicity director of the Democratic national committee, said: “We will regret this.” The great party majorities in both houses now show signs of splitting into regional and economic blocs, which is exactly what he was afraid of. Biggest wedge in forcing the split among the party ranks was, of course, the President's bill for the reorganization of the Supreme court. This led a long list of bills, many of them expected to evoke heated con- troversies in congress, which threat- ened to postpone adjournment to mid - winter.

O. power company strikers taught the 450,000 inhabitants of the Saginaw valley in Michigan what it is like to feel the power of organized labor when they sat down at their jobs for 15 hours. Electricity was shut off from 200 communities; hospi- tals as well as factories were with- out current before an agreement was reached and the strikers went back to work. It was a day's pay lost for 100,000 workers whose em- ployers’ plants depended on “juice” for life. General Motors employes alone lost $454,000. Mayor Daniel A. Knaggs of Mon- roe, Mich., called for 100 war vet- erans as volunteer police to aid his force of 20 in preserving the peace as 782 strikers at the Newton Steel company returned to work. The C. 1. O. had threatened to send 8,000 to 10,000 members from Detroit to enforce the employes’ demands. In Detroit, the Ford Brotherhood of America, Inc.,, was organized with a reported 7,000 members signed in two days, as an answer to attempts of C. 1. O.’s United Auto- mobile Workers’ Union to unionize Ford. Byrd W. Scott, a Ford ma- chinist, for 20 years, explained: ey Fi was started by my- self, B.

Francisco Franco, Great Britain blamed the rebel regime for the death of eight and the wounds of 24 sailors when the destroyer Hun- ter ran into a mine off Almeria, Southern Spain, May 13. The protest called the affair an accident, but reserved the right to claim dam- ages of $350,000. Meanwhile rains were bogging down the rebels’ northern offensive against Bilbao, but the Fascists launched a violent new offensive in the Pozoblanco sector about mid- way between Toledo and Seville in southern Spain, aiming for the rich mercury mines near Almaden. A STRONOMERS were treated to the feast of a lifetime in the South Seas as they were permitted by almost perfect weather condi- tions to photograph the longest total eclipse of the sun in 1,200 years. On Canton island the United States Navy and the National Geographic society, with eleven tons of equip- ment, took unusual pictures and radioed a description of the mag- nificent scene to millions of listen- ers back in the states. The scholars of the American Museum of Natural History viewed the eclipse from an airplane 25,000 feet above Lima, Peru. Other scientists made obser. vations from ships in the Pacific. The time of the total eclipse at the various place of observation ranged from three and one-half minutes to seven minutes. It was a short show for which to travel thousands of miles with costly, cumbersome Squipment, but, measured by sci- standards, it was worth the cost and the trouble. ( N December 15, 1036, Pilot 8S.

His voice was never again heard. Now after nearly six months the wreckage of the air- plane has been found high in the Wasatch mountains, 25 miles south- east of Salt Lake City and 35 miles off the regular airline course. So shattered was the plane that the largest single piece of debris was a part of a propeller.

Without shaking the foundations of the financial temple, Teddy Roosevelt was filing the alliga- tor teeth of preda- tory wealth. People laughed at the mad suggestion that there could ever be another great war—let alone a world war. With suffrage in prospect, women were going to purify politics. Taxes were a means unto an end and not the end of our means Standards of living climbed faster than did the costs of living.
