GOMPERS PLEADS
FOR LABOR'S RIGHTS
[Continued /rom First Page.]
emphasized his words by pounding
frequently on the table.
"In the steel industry," he con
tinued, "men were discharged for
merely talking of organization, or
I for grumbling.
"There have been srumbers of men
watched so closely that when they
rented a hall the proprietor was told
to lock the doors against them. Their
meetings on rented ground have
\ been broken up. The men were
run down, dispersed and some as
saulted."
I "Can you give instances of that
last practice?" asked Senator Sterl
ing. Republican, South Dakota.
"Yes, at McKeesport," Gompers
responded. "Since this strike the of
fices of the Iron and steel workers
there have been closed against
them."
"I suppose that has been done on
the theory that collection of crowds
would create disorder," Senator
Sterling remarked.
"I don't know the theory," Mr.
Gompers saltL "But 1 do know the
purpose. It was to prevent the
leaders from counselling with the
men and making the strike effec
tive."
Only in Wartime
Only in the event of war, the labor
leader declared, should the rights
of free speech and assembly be re
stricted. They should not be, he
said, for a "privateering corpora
tion."
"I know that many of the public
authorities in districts of Pennsyl
vania are under the direct domina
tion of the United States Steel Corpo
ration," the witness declared, pound
ing the table.
"The whole conduct of the strike
in Pennsylvania shows," Mr. "Gom
pers asserted, "that whatever helps
the corporations against the workers
will have the support of Pennsyl
vania authorities. \ The corporation
declares that It prbposes to run un
'der the misnomer the socalled
open shop but with all their
power they have tried to keep a
closed shop closed against the
union, closed against union men.
Tells of Organization
"In response to the many re
quests for organization from the
men we sent a few agents into the
field some years ago. They were
arrested, driven out of the towns,
one of them so bludgeoned that he
died. That was four or five years
ago. He was Jefferson Davis Pierce,
of Worcester, Mass."
Gompers told of the final decision
of the American Federation of Labor
in 1918, to organize the men and
described the methods used to
finance the work.
"You have dealt with the policy
of the steel companies trying to ex
clude union men," Senator Phipps,
Republican, Colorado,
policy of the unions to try to ex--
elude nonunion men?"
"It is the policy of the unions to
try to organize all workers." Gom
pers said, adding that in all his ex
perience he had never known a
workman "voluntarily refusing to
join a union of his craft."
Labor Leaders Are
Denying Deflections
From Strikers' Ranks
By ds.'ociotcd Press.
Chicago, Sept. 26. Despite ap
pearance of added industry at sev
eral steel mills in the Chicago dis
trict, statements of directing heads
that employes were returning to
work in sufficient numbers to per
mit operations in some departments
were met by denials of defections
from the strikers' ranks by labor
leaders.
At Gary, Ind., site of a big plant
of the United States Steel Corpora
tion, a slab mill and five batteries
of coke ovens were in operation and
it was stated a rail mill soon would
be put to work. At the Illinois Steel
Company's plant in South Chicago,
It was stated 4,000 men were at
work and six blast furnaces, a slab
mill and a plate mill were running.
Officials of the latter company as
serted that they were operating
with employes who had returned to
work and very few new men. They
denied reports that negro strike
breakers were at work.
On the other hand, labor leaders
claimed the union men who went on
strike were standing fast and that
others were coming into the unions.
John 11. De Young, assistant secre
tary of the Chicago district, issued
a table showing union <,Lims of 100
per cent, of the pnen still out at
Evanston, Waukcegan, Steerling, De
Kalb and Joliet, Ills., Milwaukee and
East Chicago, Ind.
At Hammond, Ind., according to
Do Young's table the strike is 80 per
cent, effective, 95 per cent, at In
diana Harbor and Gary, Ind., and
98 per cent, at South Chicago.
Dittle rioting continued to mark
the strike in the Chicago district.
Strikers threw stones and other mis
siles at Waukeegan and one was shot
by a guard. At South Chicago one
man was reported beaten.
Interest in Pittsburgh
Centers About Fight
For "Free Speech"
Pittsburgh, Sept. 26.—interest in
the steel strike situation In the Pitts
burgh district to-day centered about
the fight of the union for the "right
of free speech and assemblage" In
Allegheny county, a question which
has been prominent here for many
months and which was brought to
a head by the walkout of steel
workers. According to union rep
resentatives, authorities of certain
cities and towns in the country have
refused to grant permits for the
holding of mass meetings and have
sanctioned the breaking up of such
sessions by State troopers and local
police in many instances.
The action of troopers and other
officers in forcing the suspension of
what union leaders term "orderly
and lawful meetings" since the strike
started, has caused the workers to
appeal to Sheriff William S. Had
dock, with the request that county
authorities afford them protection.
The/roopers maintain that in break
ing up the meetings, they are carry
ing out a recent proclamation by the
sheriff,/in which the gaWiering of
more than three persons at. any one
point within the strike zone is for
bidden.
According to union representatives
tire sheriff has given them permis
sion to hold indoor meetings within
the county, and hus jiromised pro
tection for "orderly gatherings" of
strikers in hails. Attempts will be
made immediately to hold meetings
in communities where they h\vo
heretofore been banned or dispersed,
the union leaders announce.
I The strike situation in the Pitts
burgh district to-day showed little
change with quiet reigning. ' Em
ployers continue to report that men
are returning to work daily and thut
production is on the Increase. Union
leaders declare that the walkout is
becoming more effective with ad
ditional men Joining the strikers
each day.
Stute troopers and steel workers.
Arbitration Would End
Strike, Union Head Says;
Gary Still Refusing
Washington, Sept. 26.—An agreement; by the steel cor
poration to arbitrate questions raised by "the 24 unions in
volved in the stride would end the walkout immediately,
John Fitzpatrick, chairman of the union committee, told the
Senate investigating committee. He said he had 'no au
thority to issue an order calling off the strike, but was sure
that the joint steel committee of which he is chairman, would
authorize such action.
New York, Sept. 26.—After being shown an Associated
Press dispatch quoting John Fitzpatrick, director general of
the steel strike, as saying the walkout would end imme
diately if the United States Steel Corporation would arbi
trate differences, Elbert H. Gary, directing head of the cor
poration, declared in a statement, speaking for himself, that
he believed the board of directors "cannot negotiate or con
fer with Mr. Fitzpatrick or his associates."
exchanged shots early to-day in he
woods between Clairton and North
Clairton, according to reports re
vived here. No one was injured.
ITie troopers arrested thrAe men, all
Armed, and lodged thern in the
Clairton pelice station.
The path through the wocJßs con
necting the two towns, has for sev
eral days been infested with men
who take shots at loyal workers go
ing to the steel plants. The State
troopers were patrolling the path
when fired upon.
All was quiet at strike headquar
ters here to-day. Secretary Foster
was devoting much of his time to
summoning the national organizing
committee to Pittsburgh for
ference on the reply of the Bethle
hiem Steel Company refusing the
union a conference. He said that
John Fitzpatrick, charman of the
committee, will be in Pittsburgh for
the meeting.
Reports from Youngstown that
striking steel men were going to
take a vote to-day on the question
of returning to work, were charac
terized by Mr. Foster as untrue and
propaganda to disrupt- the ranks of
the union. •
Cyrus E. Woods Defends
State Police; Will Urge
Sproul to Take Action
Washington, Sept. 26. —Cyrus W.
Woods, Secretary of the Common
wealth of Pennsylvania, is in the
city and to-day was informed by
indignant citizens of Pennsylvania of
the attack upon \the State Police,
made by John Fitzpatriclc, leader of
the steel strikers. Mr. Woods tvill
make a report to Governor Sproul,
with the recommendation that some
State official he sent to Washington
to appear before the Senate com
mittee and correct the misstate
ments made by Fitzpatrick.
"While I, of course, have no per
sonal knowledge of affairs in the
strike regions," said Secretary
Woods, "I do know that the Penie
sylvania Constabulary is the finest
body of men in the world detailed
for law enforcement. T know they
are picked men, practically all of
whom have served enlistments in
the Regular Army; that they are
accepted as the model for other
states that are establishing state po
lice forces; that they have reduced
crime probably fiftyiper cent, in the
coal regions, and that the War De
partment was so Impressed witlh
their efficiency as to undertake the
organization for patrol work along
the Rhine and ask Colonel Groome
to assist in its organization.
"Immediately upon my roturn to
Harrisburg I will report to Gover
nor Sproul Snd recommend to him
that evidence be placed before the
Senate committee to counteract any
false Impression which may be given
by the testimony of Mr. Fitzpatrick.
All loyal, law-abiding citizens of
Pennsylvania are proud of the con
stabulary and wily not stand to see
it attacked unwarrantedly."
Organized Labor
Warned It Is "on
Trial For Its Life"
Washington, Sept. 26. —A warning
to organized labor that It is on trial
for its life was given in a statement
Issued by the Republican Publicity
Association.
"It has abandoned Its former de
mand for collective bargaining and
undertaken to substitute collective
dictation,'" says the statement.
"Asking for itself the right to life,
liberty and the pursuit of happiness,
It denies the same right to men who
decline to become members of labor
unions."
"The critical situation which now
confronts not only the United States
but all the world," the statement
continues, "can bo successfully met
only by adoption of a policy which
may be appropriately expressed by
'an honest day's wage for an honest
day's work.'
"There is no need to offer proof of
the assertion that the tendency of
organized labor has been to restrict
or reduce individual production.
This has been evident to the house
holder who has had an ordinary
plumbing repair job performed as
well as the large employer in the
shipyard and the munition factory
whore shirking became so notor
ious us to be a national scandal.
"Organized labor has limited the
number of apprentices who might
be engaged in learning a trade,
thereby limiting the number of
workers available for production.
"The tendency of organized labor
has been to set the standard of a
day's work to accommodate the ca
pacity of the slowest.
"It would be unfair to organized
labor to enumerate these acts limit
ing production without giving credit
for commendable accomplishments
in reducing unreasonably long hours
of toil, obtaining better working
conditions, and exacting a fairer
proportion of the results of pro
duction. But the good organized
labor may have done cannot justify
continuance of these policies which
restrict production at a time when
incr'eased production iris .the only
hope of the world. I
"Whether we are to have gov
ernment by the majority under law
or government by the minority un
der the mandates of organized labor
is to be tostcd and determined in
the conflict now in progress. Upon
this issue every cltisen, every voter,
every candidate for office, every
elective public official must choose
the side with which he will be al
lied. Tlie very life of the nation is
at stake.'

Workers to Quit
By Associated Press.
Columbus, Ohio, Sept. 26.—Upon
receipt to-day of a telegram from
Governor Cornwell, of West Virginia,
to the effect that five thousand men
from Steubenvllle and other Ohio
towns nearby are reported to be
planning to cross the Ohio line into
Hancock county, W. Va., for the
purpose of compelling workers to
quit.their places. Governor Cox to
day wired W. G. Baker, sheriff of
Jefferson county, to use his best
offices in order to prevent any pos
sibility of conflict between citizens
of Ohio and West Virginia.
In his telegram to Governor Cox,
Governor Cornwell said such an in
vasion of West Virginia by Ohio
strikers "will be regarded as an at
tack upon the sovereignty of West
Virginia."

had received no reply from Governor
Cox of Ohio to his telegram sent
late yesterday calling the Ohio ex

Inquest Into Death of
Woman Shot by Guards
Opens at Pittsburgh
By Associated Press.
Pittsburgh. Sept. 26—.Labor lead
ers, mine officials, Government in
vestigators and State authorities were
present to-day in the coroner's court
for the inquest into the death of Mrs.
Fannie Sellens, an organizer for the
United Mine Workers, who was kill
ed whep mine guards of the Alle
gheny Coal and Coke Company, of
West Natrona, are alleged to have
fired into a crowd of striking
miners.
Joseph Strzeleckl, claimed to be
a striker, was shot to death at the
same time.
The shooting has been called to the
attention of the Senate Labor Com
mittee, at Washington by labor lead
ers.
The labor leaders charge that Mrs.
Sellens was "murdered" by the mine
guards, while protecting children
from their bullets. They brought to
court a number of eye witnesses of
the shooting as witnesses.
The Department of Labor at
Washington has had an investigator
in tliis district for several weeks
gathering evidence on the case.
One mine guard Is out on bail on
a charge of murder in connection
with the shooting. All the mine
guards on duty at the time of the
trouble will be called as witnesses.
SMTP AHOY, CAPTAIN" KIDD!
It is time for the ghosts of Cap
tain Kidd, Blackboard and old John
Morgan to get busy and guard their
hidden plunder. They are digging—
or dipping—up cetvturies-old Span
ish treasure, not from the sands
of Florida, the islands of the Caro
linas or the Antilles, but from the
ocean bed off the coast of Scotland.
But whether the one place or the
other, when the modern Argonaut
goes after buried or sunken treas
ure with modern scientific appli
ances. it is time for all hidden gold
and its ghostly guards to heware.
Spanish "pieces of eight," for the
possession of which many a gallant
galleon was burned and its crew
made to walk the plank, have been
found In an ancient galleon raised
from the sea.
The piece of eight was the legill
mate forebear of our present silver
dollar, the "dollar of our daddies."
When Congress determined the size
and contents of the silver dollar it
used as its model the Spanish
milled dollar" of eight shillings,
but. fortunately, made it a "piece
of ten" instead of eight by adopting
the decimal system and giving us
dimes instead of shillings. Yet, for
nearly a century thereafter, many
of'our people, especially in the
Northern and New England States,
continued to figure accounts in shill
ings, but to Collect them In dimes
What visions of those bold buc
caneers who "sailed the Spanish
main" resurrection of the treasure
of this sunken galleon conjures up,
of not only the pirates who have
been mentioned, but the almost
equally piratical Sir Francis Drake,
and those other English and Dutch
adventurers who prayed upon ship
ping in both the Atlantic and Pa
cific, off the coast of Panama and
1n the sens and passages of the West
Indies. It is said of one of these
English royally indorsed piratts,
that his ship departed with cotton
sails and returned to England with
sails of silk.

GEORGE ID CALLED
"RAKER OF 1776"
Baden-Powell Says English
Sympathized With Ameri
can Colonists
Characterising George 111 a* the
"kaiser of his time," and maintain
ing that the English people In 1770
wore whole-heartedly with the
American colonists In "their asser
tion of their rights when an un
constitutional and autocratic mon
arch tried to impose on them hl
puny will," Sir Robert Baden-Pow
ell, head of the Boy Scout Associa
tion in England, who was feted In
this country during his reeent visit
here, has returned to Great Britain
with a new plea for international
brotherhood, which he feels will be
effected through the development of
Boy Scout organizations throughout
the world.
In a message to his scout leaders.
Sir Robert says:
"It is all very well to call Amer
ica a foreign country, but one has
only to be there for an hour or
less to discover that it is not a for
eign country.
"In appearance It is, of course,
totally different from England. If
you are in a city, the marvelous
great buildings, like sections of
honeycomb put up on end In the
great hives of industry, are grand
compared with the tortuous little
alleys and squalid buildings In which
we are content to do our business.
"In the country one sees nothing
of the dignified English elm trees
with their old-world farmsteads
nestling below them; all looks much
more experimental and temporary
with the wooden doll houses set
down on the grass fields, and never
a hedge or garden to them.
"But among the people it is dif
ferent. You begin by being polite
and standoffish ,as is the stupid Brit
ish way with foreigners; but you
very soon forget when you are talk
ing the same language and have the
same ideals, and when both parties
possess the same kind of character;
you -can't help dropping into a fa
miliar way.
"At least I know that was what
happened in my case; now and
again I remembered and tried to
pull myself up, but It was no use.
Their live keenness and their
warmth of hospitality carried one
along so that one felt at home
among them. And why-not?
"We are of the same kind, of the
same breed. For 260 years out of
the 400 of their history the Ameri
cans were British. The two peo
ples, as such, were never at war
with each other. History books im
ply that they were; hut history books
are writen by individuals, and the
individual is not always quite itu-
I partial or truthful. "Were ho bo we
should know that instead of the
Plnglish people trying to bully their
own colonists into paying the Eng
lish taxes, the English people iu
177 C were whole-heartedly with their
fellow-subjects in their assertion of
their rights when an unconstitu
tional and autocratic monarch tried
to impose on them his puny will.
"That war was rightly described
by one of our statesmen at the time
os the 'darkest page in British his
tory,' and George 111 might well
have been styled 'the kaiser of his
time.'
"The great war, with all its ruin,
hus at least and at last brought us
the opportunity of re-establlsliing
our good relations with our Ameri
can cousins if we only take steps to
Insure that the comradeship of the
battlefields be continued in the fields
of peace by the next generation, and
those cousins are willing and
anxious to meet us half way.
"Through the scout-brotherhood,
we have, fortunately, a means to that
end If we only take It us and use it.
That is the reason why In the scout
movement we urge upon our scouts
to get Into touch with their Ameri
can brothers by opening up corre
spondence by post and eventually
arranging for Interchange of visits."
