ON ACCIDENT BOARD
Governor Names Successors
To Harvey BeckWith And
WilfOrd Alien.

All conjecture as to the future per.
sonnel of the Industrial accident com.
mission has been settled by the recent
aetion of the governor in selecting j..
w. Ferguson, of Portland, to succeed
Harvey Beckwith, and win II KfrIs, re-
Gently installed at the head OF the

rangcment, Mr.. Allen, democrat, is re-
placed by democrat, and the other
appointee being arepubliean along with
Wm. A. Marshall, who has been with
the commission since its establishment,
the status Of the body remains as be-
fore. Under the present alignment, Mr..

ests of the employers and Mr. Marshall

accident commission closely since /

was rather familiar with it prior to
that time. am thoroughly convinced
that the makeup of the board was not
conducive to the best operation Of the

functions of the act are among the most
important that any Of the state boards
or commissions are called upon to ad

mission s affairs. These appointments

CONGRESS TAKES HAND
By Associated Pres

Washington, September 23.-Congress intervened in the steel strike today by directing the Senate labor committee to institute an immediate investigation to ascertain Eff the situation can in any way be relieved by federal action"
 The inquiry will begin Thursday, when representatives of the strikers will be heard. Later Chairman Gary of the United States Steel corporation, Presi- dent of the American Federation and other spokesmen for both capital and labor will appear
 Action by the Senate was taken on a resolution proposing the inquiry offered by Senator Kenyon, republican, Iowa, chairman of the education and labor committees. The resolution was adopted without objection after brief discussion of the serious industrial situation involv- ing the public's interests
 While the Senate was launching the committee inquiry, the house loudly ap- plauded an address by Representative Cooper, republican, Youngstown. O., a member of one of the railroad brother hoods, assailing William Z Foster, sec retary and treasurer of the committed organizing the steel workers, and othel labor union leaders whom, he charged were fomenting revolution.

House Kills Amendment
 GiUing Common Schools Million Dollars a Year
By ". J. ROLES

Montgomery September 23-(Specialo By very narrow margin the house O. representatives this afternoon defeated the proposal to give the common schools of the state one million dollars year. The vote was on an amendment offered by Representative Jeff Clayton of Bar bour county to the common school ap- propriation which came over from the senate last Friday. The common schools under the bill are given $350,000 for the school year beginn1ng Cctoper l, 1919, anc s500,0o0 for each of the succeeding three years
 Mir. Clayton's amel .dment increased these sums to one milton dollars for each of the four years. During the debate on the amendment the house was in a con- tinuous uproaF. The Speaker tried in vain to restore order pounding the gayel upon his desk almost necessarily.
 Charges of bad fa.,h were made and advocates of the larger appropriation re peatedly reminded the representatives of the hope held out to the children of the state when the gner1l revenue bill was under consideration itt the house. Speak CTS recalled the arguments in support of the new features in the revenue bill the adoption of which Was demanded as es- sential to the increa seG appropriation lOI lHe SCliCOlS ana IHS OlQ SOlQlerS. IF face of all this it was charged the com mon schools are given the same amour. next year that they were given under ap- propration bills four and eight years ago
 This morning a large number of county and city superintendents caled on Gov ernor Kilby and requested a larger conn mon school appropriation than is pro- vided for in the senate bill The super intendentS came here last night in re sponse to telegrams from the superintend- ents of Butler and Conecuh counties Many of them, on arriving in Montgom- cry, stated that they did not know whas they were coming for,- but as the tele graphic messages were of an urgent na- ture they came.
 They held caucus last night and early this morning called OF Governor Kilby to make their demand. The governor is reported to have received them most cor dially, giving them respectful hearing and then to have advised them politely, yet firmly. that they were asking the i'm possible; that the estimated revenues the next four years would not permit of any greater allowance for the schools thar that carried in the appropriations bill.

 The original senate bill was then passed by the vote of 62 to 10.
 Mir. Lynne during the discussion Of the bill explained that for the next year the appropriation would be s350,0 m part of which can be used for any other purpose than the common schools, and 4I,,+ Il -fa4f +T,a next three years would be $500,000 in ad- dition to a revolving fund of S100000, to be used in lengthening rural school terms, $200,000 in bonuses to schools in districts that have voted the 3-miH tax.

 SITUATION UNCHANGED
 Gary, Ind. September 23.-With sS per cent of Gary's steel workers on strike, according to union officials, the situation remained unchanged tonight. There were no disorders during the day and fears that race feeling might cause trouble were a1leviated this afternoon when a mass meeting of 2500 men cheered a negro strikers appeal fos suppression of race feeling. The meet ing, which was held in park, was or derly, and the men, dressed in their holiday clothes, seemed cheerful and good natured.
 The first move to round up radical agitators among the strDAers Was made this afternoon, when Mile Yelovitz was arrested for distributing pamphlets among the strikers. advocating the overthrow of the government. He was arrested by local authorities on infor- nation furnished by federal agents and was held on $1o,000 bond. Charges un- der an Indiana sedition law, recently enacted, will be brought against Yel- ovitz.
 Officials of the American Steel and Tinplate company, employing about 5000 workers, declaerd that few were on strike, and that the plant was op- erating normally.
 Strike pickets, many of whom rode to their posts in their own automo- piles, are still on duty around the plants.
