large sentimental influence has been the
apparent breakdown of the steel strike,
as evidenced by the return Of several
thousand workers to their old positions
and tho tentative negotiations under

the union leaders still say it will be a

tons that the end is not far off in SO far
as the ability of the leaders to control

The steel strike was unsuccessful from

Lower Commodity Prices.

In such controversies than have workers
in other countries, as the pay envelope
here is larger and the cost of living
lower. In Great Britain average com
modify prices are Mt their highest levels
while the index figure In the United
States shows decline of go per cent
since summer. which Is significant and
throws interesting light on the position
OF European workers who have not been
treated nearly as generously as have
been the workers of the United States.
This country is making good progress,
although production In some branches is
Tar below normal as a result of limited
supply of workers and decreased eff
cheney OF labor. There are several other
strikes pending. notably the threatened
wallIout of bituninous miners and de-
mands made by other labor for ncrease
