WASHINGTON, Sept. if UNITED Press
-Attorney-General Palmer today began
studying working conditions in the
steel mill districts as union officials
went ahead perfecting plans TO handle
the nationwide strike for september

"If Federal laws are violated, the De-
partment OF Justice Will act, said Pal

Union leaders charge that constitu-
tional guarantees OF the rights OF free
speech and free assembly have been
nulllned in Western Pennsylvania at
the behest Of the United States steel
Corporation. The steel workers say
this is why It became necessary for
them 10 refuse the request OF Presi-
dent Wilson that a strike action be de-
ferrd until October when labor and
capital will meet here in a round table
conference.
Palmer let it be known today he has
been in touch several weeks with con-
ditions in the Pennsylvania mill ais

that OF the number of men employed

FEWER PRISONERS
DURING DRY DAYS
Population Of Workhouse
Has Decreased IA in
Two Months
LARGE SAVING
To TAXPAYERS

That the wartime prohibition act is
causing the New Castle County Work
house to be depopulated was the opin-
ion of the Trustees Of the Workhouse
on Tuesday, when the reports read at
their meeting showed a great falling
of in the number OF inmates.
The monthly report showed that on
August 1 there were l6i persons In the
workhouse, and during the month only
63 were admitted. while ST were dis
charged, leaving a total OF 435.
This is almost a record, as the instl-
tution's books show that on July 4,
when the sale Of intoxicating liquors
was stopped. there were 500 prisoners
in the institution.
This decrease OF ii prisoners in two
months means a large saving TO the
