President Gompcrs would not say

proposed To do. 1t is presumed. how
ever, that all of the Federation men
engaged in the iron and steel trades

Less than "A hours must clapsc be-
fore the general strike order of Presi
dent Shaffer becomes effective. but in
well-informed quarters here. there Is
still doubt as TO the number of men
and properties that will be affected by
the order. Both sides are making
claims as to the non-union mills and
it is well-night impossible to strike an
average on their contentious.
The mill managers say that they are
not alarmed about the men who go
out under protest or simply through
loyalty to the union, because they say
the hearts of the men are not with the
strikers They also insist that the final
showing, Saturday and Sunday, VIII be
far under the claims that are being
made by the Amalgamated AsSoCia-
ton. President Shaffer would not talk
figures. today. but his associates were
positive that their first claims were
correct.
The final appeals to the men Will be
made at a series of meetings to be
held. tomorrow. at which President
Shaffer and the other leaders Will be
the speakers. The strike managers
are claiming tonight. that they VIII be
