GARY REFUSES TO
COMPROMISE OR TO
ARBITRATE THE
Big STEEL STRIKE
Tries to Discourage Com
mittee's Plan to Visit the
Strike District.

Washington, Oct. Judge Gary
OF the United States Steel Corporation
fatty refused all suggestions looking
to compromise or arbitration of the
strike, in his testimony before the
Senate Labor Committee today. II
can not talk about compromise or ar
bitration at the present time, much as
/ regret it," he said. Gary discour-
aged the committees intention TO visit
the strike district by saying that it
would hinder rather than expedite a
settlement of the trouble.
He urged an extended investigation
instead of hurried trip of personal
inquiry. More employ of the steel
company will be heard by the commit
tee. Those who testified yesterday
were high-salaried men, and several
of them were owners of the COM
pany's stock. They condemned the
strike. Senator Walsh asked Gary
if he would meet the union leaders in
an attempt to settle the strike. 81
will not" replied Gary, because thew
represent only minority of the steel
workers"

Daily Bread Line

Six million Jews, men, women and
children, number as great as the
population of the state of Illinois. in
Guiding. Chicago, form the bread line
in Europe every day. They get their
only food from the American relief
funds, from milk stations, from hos
pitfalls and from open fields, as many
of them are living without shelter.
That such conditions exist in Europe
are vouchsafed for by the statement
of a great body of Investigators who
have gone to Europe in the interest OF
the war-ridden people.

in the American Red Cross commits
sion. in speaking OF the condition OF
the desolated land in which the Jews

ern part of the county, is $4,000. a
drive to raise this amount will be car
ried on during the week, beginning

Mediation in the
English Rail Strike
Seems Impossible

London, Oct. 4.-The possibility that
mediation will end the British railway
strike is seemingly hopeless. Yester-
days efforts to affect an agreement
was a failure. The government pro-
posed a seven-days' truce during
which the strikers should continue
work pending further negotiations
looking to a settlement Of the trouble,
but the suggestion was rejected by
the strikers The endeavors OF the
transport workers federation to form
ulate basis of an agreement between
the strikers and the government also
failed The ministry of labor has
called for 1000 volunteers to serve as

odist Episcopal church, assured the
workers of their deep interest and of.
fered to make announcement of the
campaign. and urge people to volun-
teer for service as solicitors.
The quota for Fremont county is
only $3.50. Because of the utter
need among the Jewish peoples be-
tween Russian. Germany and Austria.
and also because of the fact that there
will be few appeals for such work this
coming year, 1t is believed that the
quota will be much oversubscribed
everywhere. The sum of $35, 0O0, 900
is being asked for throughout the
United States.
While the relief will be admins
tered chiefly to Jews in the stricken
region, all needy people will be served
without discrimination. All faiths and
creeds are joining in tits humanitar-
an endeavor TO save life.

Many Nonresident
Hunters Pass Thru

AT least half a score of automobiles
filled with hunters and camping out
fits passed through Canon City on
Tuesday en- route to the mountains
from the eastern and southern por-
lions of the state. Some of them We're
bound to the Wet Mountain valley and
other points a'ong the eastern slopes
of the Continental divide. Others were
destined for Rio Blanco and Routu
counties. Most of these excursion
lists were from the counties along the
Kansas line. II is stated that about
$4,000 big game hunting licenses have
been issued in Colorado during the
last 80 days. Owing to the great
number of hunters in the hills at
present there is danger that some of
them will be accidentally shot. espe-
cially in view. of the fact that most of
them are armed with high-powered
rifles. A large number of the Pueblo
steel workers who are now taking an
enforced holiday by reason of the
strike, have availed themselves of the
opportunity of the deer hunting priv
iege and are among the gun men

Six Series Cuts

Eddie Collins, star second-sacker Of
the White Sox, is sure in strong with
old Dame Fortune. While some of the
premier ball players of the majors. in
Guiding Nap Lajoie. have gone through
career without a single look-in at
worlds series honors. the former Ath-
letic star will have played in six out
of the Is post-season battles when the
curtain falls on this years classic.
He and his old team mate. Jack
Barry. hold the record as the most
worlds serted" players OF the game.
BaDy has been a member of six win
ners. but he PLAYED in only FIVE series.
a broken arm in 1916 having kept him
froc active work in the series.
In addition to the honor of having
played in the mos, worlds champion
ship games, Collins had profted i'm.
mensely by the smile OF the little god
Luck. which has given him FIVE large
slices of the worlds series coin and
one small hunk. BY another piece Of
luck he did not take part in the series
when slim years" prevailed II "a
estimated that the extra money which
came to him from this source runs
around $1,000.
His first divvy OF the extra coin
came with the Athletics when they
won the worlds championship in 1910.
He was with them when they repeat
ed in 1911 and in 1913. when the
Braves made the Athletics take the
smaller cut OF the pie in 1914 he had
another piece. Then he was traded
TO the White Sox and cut in again on
the coin in 1917 and this year he re-
peats for even a larger share which
seems probable with the increase of
the series to nine games.
