Ohio Police Investigate
Reports of Negroes Being
Imported BY Steel Mills
Summary of
Strike Situation
(By Associated Press.)


Reports from all steel centers
today recorded little change in
the alignment of the opposing
forces of the labor union and the
steel companies. In the Mahon-
ing valley of Ohio the strikers
success is complete. The indus
try, which is the backbone Of
Youngstown and score of
neighboring villages, Is paralyZed
and all its $4,000 wage eaners
idle. Elsewhere the struggle is
being carried on with varying
success, the issue still being
doubtful in the great strategic
places from Pittsburgh to Chi
cago.
In the Pittsburgh district the
Carnegie Steel company an
nounced today that the situation
looks good" and backed up it's
optimism with claims that men
were returning to work in con-
siderable numbers. AS usual
these claims were stoutly denied
by William C. Foster, chief of
staff for the unions, who reiter-
ated his assertion of yesterday
that the strike was spreading,
claimed that two additional large
plants had been closed today and
that Homestead would be idle by
the end of the week.
The strikers placed pickets
around various plants for the
first time.
The situation around Chicago
is more definite than that in the
Pennsylvania region. A majority
of the mills are closed and those
which are still operating are do
ing so with reduced forces. The
threatened sympathetic strike of
the lake seamen seemed nearer
as the result of the refusal of the
crews of eleven ore freighters to
dock their vessels.
Important decisions affecting
the spread of the strike to allied
industries are expected to be the
outcome of the meeting to-day in
pittsburg of the national steel
Workers committee, of which Mr..
Foster is secretary. The question
of summoning not only the lake.
seamen. but union trainnen, to
the assistance of the steJ strik-
ers will be discussed at. this
meeting.
In the meantime the United
states senate COMMITTEES which
will investigate the striks. is pre-
pairing for its meeting to-
morrow, when John Fitzpatrick,
commander in chief of the strik-
ers. will be the principal witness.
1t was reported from Washing
ton today that this committee
would also, investigate charges
that Secretary Foster has |. W.
W. affiliations and that there are
more sinister motives involved
in the strike than the question
of labor unionism.
Riots and disorder still mark
the progress of the struggle, but
SO far only sporadically. The
latest outbreak occurred today at
Cleveland, where four men were
stabbed in a battle between strik-
ers and nonstrikers two probably
fatally. At Farrell, where the
eravest disturbances to date have
been reported, the town execu-
tive, Burgess Moody. is under
special guard as the result of nu-
merous threats against his life,
and the streets are patrolled by
large forces of state troopers and
deputy Sheriffs.

Battle With Borah and
His Kind.
BECOMES A BIT BITTER
Any Rejection of Treaty Will

Ally of Germany.
BECOMES A BIT BITTER
(eY JOHN EDWIN NEvlN)

On BOARD President Wilson's
Special Train, Enroute to Cheyenne,
Wyo., sept 24.-(By international
News Service With a declaration
OF war on his lips and demand that
the senate of the United States shall
accept the issue Of Ratification of the
treaty of Versailles as a guarantee
of peace or its rejection as n decla-
ration that wars must continue,
President Wilson moved eastward
today
The president has decided that the
issue has been raised by his oppo-
nents. Last night in the sacred tab
ernacle of the Mormon church Mr..
Wilson explained his position. In eff
feet, he said:
Amy rejection Of this treaty
leaves the United States as the ally
of Germany.
2-"Amendments to this treaty
which makes necessary resubmission
to any signatory power, including
Germany, defeats the objects of the
war.
3-"Opponents of the treaty must
consider whether the benevolent
stand makes for reconsideration
without their believing that this is a
fact, or whether the advocates of
amendments" shall be able to say to
the world that the United States is
not to be party to the treaty.
The president was extremely Bit
ter fast night. He accepted the issue
for the next national campaign. No
one could doubt that. While he did
not make any issue of the campaign
to come, he made 1t plain that 80
long as | live" I will accept the issue
that the bleeding heart of the world
depends upon America"
Did Not Criticise Smoot.
The president was very much de-
lighted by the events of last night.
In the heart of Mormonism-the Nor
monism that means integrity, honor
and AmeriCanism-he cited state
ments nj the leaders of the church
which, apparently his audience ac-
cepted, as criticism of the senior
senator of the state. Yet he did not
criticise Mr., Smoot, neither did he
criticise Senator Borah. AS matter
of fact in the audience in front of
President Wilson last night there
were more friends Of Senator Borah
than of any senator from the state Of
Utah. They love Borah in Utah.
They think he is a little off color
in deciding against the league Of ma
tions. but they know that his decision
was made many, many years ago
soon after 1914 when "Bil" Borah
declared his position. And there was
a subtle suggestion in the declaration
that came from the men of Utah
Salt Lake, Ogden-that possibly it
might not be right to question in
tegrity when integrity was so big
proposition as it meant to Borah
and to them, although they said very
frankly that they knew the senator
went off on the wrong foot"
Garry War to Senators.
The president is going to carry the
war straight to the senators who are
now opposing on political lines. He
said last night that he could not un-
dcr9tand their position. | know, of
my own knowledge, that the presi
dent has not yet accepted the fact
that the members OF his own party in
the senate are opposing him for any
thing but political purposes.

Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
Do you think it's right for a girl to
go about with a married man who
has not a divorce from his wife, but
she Is in a different state?
How may girl be popular with
the boys?
Do you think about the parents
when they do not let their 16-year-
old daughter go with boys?
What should a girl do when she
refuses a boy to kiss her and he
does anyway?
What should one talk about with
girl and boy friends?
What is going to be the popular
color to wear this coming spring?
How is my writing?
Hoping to see this in the Daily
Bee. ! thank you. BROWN EYES.
1t is not right for a girl to go
about with a married man who has

do l know? Parents who do not
permit their 16-year-old daughters
to run around with the boys have
the right idea. Give it back to him,

Heart Beats

By A. X.
We have found out
That there isn't
Much fun in living for
Ourselves alone
And we agree with
Robert Stevens that:
ITO labor with zest
And give of your best"
Is the only
System that brings
Sweetness and Joy
Into living and
We've found out
Too that there is
A certain something
Spirituelle kind
Of feeling that comes
With doing good and
Working hard at
Whatever occupation
You engage in.
And we know that
Only by helping the
Other folks along
The rough road of
Life can we live in
Peace, for every
Dagger we send out
In words or deeds
Comes right back
And stabs us in the
Face.
And we're not pious
Or prudish
Or over-religious
Or very good
Or anything like that
But we just know
From experience
That nothing pays
Which isn't right
And when we do a
Mean trick
Or say a mean thing
We are not surprised
When we get in dutch"
For it's coming
To us and
We're expecting
Bad luck and trouble
And we've found out that
We are
NEVER, NEVER, NEVER,
Disappointed.
