CALL OUT MILITIA
IN STEEL STRIKE

HAMMOND, Ind, Aug. 21.-Five
companies of State militia patroled the
steel district here today, in an effort
to prevent rioting by strikers of the
Standard Steel Car Company. Five
other companies were on the way
here.
The city was quiet. Police were able
to cope with the situation during the
night, when there were several minor
outbreaks in the foreign quarter.
Refusal of the workers to accept a
compromise offered by the company
caused officials to ask for State troops
as a precautionary measure.
The State troops rushed to Ham
mOnd following appeals from Mayor
Brown and Sheriff Barnes, who de-
clared that the striking employees of

had rejected arbitration and the situa-
ton was tense, are armed with rifles

selves from all responsibility with
regard to those terms.
Il suggest that, having said this, I
have, in effect, answered also your
second, third and fourth questions, 50
far as 1 myself am concerned.
Permit me to answer your fifth
question by saying that the provisions
OF the treaty to which you refer oper-
ate merely to establish peace between
the powers ratifying, and thus it is
questionable whether it can be said
that the league of nations is in any
true sense created by the association
of only three of the allied and asso-
ciated governments
I'm reply to your sixth question, 1
can only express that confident opin-,
ion that the immediate adoption of
the treaty along with the articles Of
the covenant of the league as written
would certainly within the near fu-
ture reduce the cost of living in this
country, as elsewhere, by restoring
production and commerce to their
normal strength and freedom.

Manhattan Shirts are made of better
fabrics than ordinary shirts, they're tail

colors are piecedyed into the fabric to
give longer service.
