Canton Steel Men
Vote to Go Back

CANTON, Ohio. Sept. 24.--The an
nouncement this afternoon by C. A.
Irwin, general manager of the Canton
Sheet Steel Company, that his men
had voted to return to work was the
outstanding feature of the strike in
Canton Of workers in the iron and
steel industry. About 1900 men are
affected by the decision.
CAMBRIDGE. Ohio. Sept 24.-strik-
ers here are slowly returning to the
places they vacated Monday morning.
1t was reported that six of the ten
mills at the Guernsey plant of the
American Sheet and Plate Company arc
in operation. Monday, after the strike
call, only three mills were in opera
tion.
COLUMBUS, Ohio, Sept. 24.-The
third day of the nationwide steel
strike found Ohio's three great steel
centres at Youngstown, Cleveland and
Stubenville completely paralyzed
Union leaders claim that more than
$4,000 steel workers are out Of work

pressure that will begin to be exerted
by the workers indirectly displaced.
In the matter Of conflicts between
law officers and strikers, the day passed
without serious injuries or fatalities,
but there we're clashes in McKeesport
and Pittsburgh. In the former place
the mounted police cleaned up a crowd
after an hours struggle and arrested
thirty-six of the more unruly.
The police throughout the district
are searching for supplies Of arms, and
found forty rifles in a Polish hall at
Newcastle to-day.
The forces of law and order are be-
ing strengthened in most places by the
addition Of special policemen and
deputy sheriffs, who are quite gener-
ally American Legion members, and it
is noted that wherever the police i'm
prove their hold the number of men at
work increases

to import strike breakers At South Chi

to import strike breakers at South Chi
cago were officially branded as without
any foundation. Those in position to
speak with authority declared that such
action was not contemplated, as it would
be an injustice to those workers who
were idle through no fault Of their
own. In official quarters it WAS also
said that the latest reports indicated
that many Of these men were returning
to work.
This weeks issue or the "Iron Trade
Review" states that the "most un-
American strike In the history Of tho
country has already been frustrated by
the loyalty Of the American workmen."
This publication estimates that 85 per
cent of the strikers have been re-
cruited from the ranks Of foreign COM
mon labor, and adds:
"The American employees, as a rule,
not only refused to join in the strike
but have manifested willingness to
return to work the moment the oppor-
tunity presents itself. While many
plants have been forced to close. this
has been due in numerous cases to the
Gripping of certain essential depart
ments and to the involuntary or coercea
absence of non-striking workmen rather
than to the strength of the strikcre
them mselves. The actual number Of bona
fide strikers has been placed at 20 pc
cent of the total force idle. The most
pronounced effect of the strike, on the
line it has now developed, probably will
be in the heavier products, including
bars. structural shapes, plates and
rails"
Fear Government Action
The Iron Age" takes the view that
the failure of the strike will do much
to clarity the industrial situation, but
states that "the only fear seems to- be
that if collapse does not come early the
Administration may attempt to force
an end prematurely."
A summary made public yesterday
Of the statistics showing the subscrip-
tions to Liberty Loan bonds by the
Steel Corporation and the employees re-
vealed that of the last three issues
$53,923, $50 was subscribed for. The
detailed figures follow:
Number Par Value
issues Subscribers OF Bonds
Third Liberty Loan. .i79.374 $i402S,OO0
Fourth Liberty Loan 202.i4o 22.S71.soo
Victory Loan Notes .169,653 17,023,65Q
Total .............54l.ssl .ba.sas,16o
Subscriptions Were Liberal
Employees also subscribed literally
to the first and second Liberty bond
issues, but as these subscriptions were
not made through the corporation
statement Of the exact amount cannot
be given. The same condition pre-
vailed concerning subscriptions to the
third, fourth and Victory loans not
placed through the corporation. From
data obtained through Liberty Loan
committees and otherwise it was esti-
mated that additional subscriptions to
these loans made by employees totalled
at least $25,0O0.0 900.
Judge Gary, chair r1man Of the United
States Steel Corporation, followed his
usual custom yesterday of seeing the
newspapermen, but he declined to make
any comment on the strike situation.

Foil Plot to Dynamite
Bridge at Ne,u Castle

NEW CASTLE. Penn, Sept. "a
An attempt was made to-day to blow
up high trolley bridge over Con-
noQuessing Creek, near Ellwood City.
Holes were found to have been drilled
into the base Of the structure. Guards
have been placed over the bridge, as
experts claim the holes were drilled
for dynamiting.
Interurban cars to and from New

of workmen cross it on their way to
