THOUSANDS IN
STEEL STRIKE
LEAVE JOBS IN
MANY PLANTS
10th Sides Claim Best of the
Strike While Steel Indus
try is Grayely Affected !;
ltiots Break Out.

Wy ~ oSOCiuleO j TeSSD
The second day Of the great
struggle between labor unions
and the United States Steel cor
poration opened with question
as to the extent the industry has
been affected by the strike I'M
certain.
1t is confused by conflicting state
ments from both sides. It is certain
that the industry is gravely affect
ed. The carly reports today indicat-
ed gains for the strikers. IN the Pitts
LurHh district several OF the plants
closed. The Braddock and Rankin
plants which attempted to continu,
yesterday were shut down today. SINH
lar conditions existed in the Chicago
district Nearly all the plants in the
Chicago and Gary district and Ham.
mond were closed or operating with
reduced capacity.
The strikers had the most success
at Youngstown and the possibility
that the strike would spread was more
serious. Rioting was resumed today
and the known casualties were one
man dead, three injured perhaps fatal
ly and scores injured.

INTEREST ON
ALONE
PROVIDED BY
REDUCED RATE
Reduction from 1925 Rate
Last Year is Made Possible
by Reimbursement of the
General Fund by Bond Is
sue Carrying.

The board of directors of the
Imperial irrigation district this
morning set the tax rate for the
district at $1.9O per hundred dol.
lars valuation or tax Of .l9
mills on the dollar.
In setting the rate at $50 the
board fulfilled promise made prior
to the election on the recent bond is
sue that if the bond issue carried the
rate would be set at the above figure.
This rate takes care of interest on
bonds only and is required to be set
by law so that the tax rate will en-
tirely take care of any interest charge.
Last year the rate was 1926 and
this rate covered interest on bonds,
maintenance and other charges. The
drop of $1.35 is made possible this
year through the reimbursement of
the general fund by the carrying of
the bonds at the recent election.
The rate of 1926 was on each hun
bred dollars valuation or 80 1-2 mills
on the dollar.
The remainder of the day was spent
by the board in taking care of routine
matters.

BUILD ROADS
SAYS ADAMS

Speaking of the letter of the county
highway commission composed of
Messrs. F. S. Lack, L. J. Thomas, and
Casey Abbott, requesting that work
on the county highway system be de-
layed until the wishes of the people
can be expressed by the advisability
of voting additional bonds in order to
complete the entire project, Surervis-
or j. Roy Adams stated this morning
that such action would be unnecessary
as it is very evident that the people
of the county want good roads after
voting on the bond issue Ia to /.
ut is not necessary to go back to
the people for more information" he
raid. Everybody knows tina they
want the roads. The cost of building
has increased, it is true, but not a
great deal at that. We did not expect
to build the entire system out of the
first issue, anyway. l think this was
generally understood, as donations
were to be made for the amounts lack
ing, and some donations have already
been promised.
81 am opposed to any move that
will mean delay in building the county
highways. We must get started and
get them done as quickly as possible"
