ton which may develop in the north

suit of the threatened strik of Indus
trial workers of the World August 90,
in Washington, Oregon, Montana and
Idaho. Extreme measures, even to
the dispatch of federal troops into the
affected section, will be taken if nee

Troops will be sent, it is said, only
in case of serious disorder which local
state and federal authorities may be
unable to meet adequately, or to insure
non-interruption of war industries.
Officials are united however, in the
opinion that there must be no cessa-
ton of activity in such industries as
are regarded essential to prosecution
of the war.
Reports from the affected districts
