DEMOCRATS CLAIM ENOUGH VOTES TO
 BEAT AMENDMENT

WASHINGTON, Sept. 20-Demo- cratic leaders in the senate challenged today the claim of republican oppon- ents aof the. league oftlnikkioos aooxenrs ant sti1afg ennneh p5edGeaah aheds aeea1ehxi tatned te secuseHad optt1n cot 11enn1o3 Johnson's amendWen< fideatGI<ed5 fol euualize British and AIner5can vot- ing power in the league assembly.
 While they expressed supreme con- fidenee and predicted at least fifty votes against the amendinent--enough to defeat it-these senators finally got in touch with Vice. President Marshall insisting that he return in time for the first real test vote on the treaty ex- pected next week.
 The senate was not in session and Chairman Lodge of the foreign rela- tions committee, was not at his of flee during the day and republicans say they had rested on their oars, waiting for the contest to begin Mon- day.
 Mild" reservationists, some of whom claimed to hold the balance of power, were active conferring and counting noses to see how many of their num- Der would vote against the Johnson amendment.
 Some of their claims ran as high as eight
 Both sides were expecting help from this group. but there was no certainty as to how the majority might line up. Leaders in predicting 50 votes against the Johnson amendment, out of a total of 96, counted on the support of many of this group, in view of the general belief that five democrats would be found with the republicans in the line up in the amendment fight.
 Senator Hitchcock said today that every effort would be made to hasten consideration of the treaty because of the ''insistent demand from business people for final settlement. There was no indication, however, as to how soon a vote might be called for on the Johnson amendment.

Win Not Use strikebreakers

Will Not Use Strikebreakers 1 There is no talk of bringing strike breakers into this district in the event the unions cripple or close down the plants. It is said the larger corpora | tions prefer to remain closed than cause unnecessary turmoil that sometimes follows the bringing of strikebreakers into community.
 The strike order affects approxi mateiy 100000 iron and steel workers in the inner and outer Pittsburg dis trist between Johnstown, Pennsylvania on the east and Youngstown, Ohio, on the west. Union leaders claim a ma jority of these men will follow the re- quest of the steel workers national committee and refuse to go to work Monday. They assert that not only union men will be in the walkout but that they will be joined by thousands who are not affiliated with any labor organization.
 Municipal and harough 1officials iRI many parts of the tt<zeburxa1ls>sss< tor day also prepared fo meet the sitnatioi<| and have taken rfttallfi6,is to main tain law and order tn the<r coE1r1anfsie ie<.'
 Mayor George H. Lysfe, Of McKees- port. who, union leaders complain, has refused to permit labor organizations 10 hold public meetings in that city, issued a long proclamation calling up on citizens 10 support the constituted authorities in their efforts to maintain peace.
 The proclamation states that or Ganizers having no connection with the workers of McKeesport have attempted 10 unite mill workers in strike, ''us ing for that purpose inflammatory { arguments, seditious language, threats and misleading statements"
 This work" the proclamation further states has been directed mainly among foreigners here, little, if any support being granted them by Amer jeans and by the better class of work CTS Of foreign descent in order that the people and properties of this city may be protected against violence which may result from the formation of any unruly and un-Amer- ican mass of people, three thousand of the citizens of McKeesport have vol unteerly been sworn in special police deputies"
 Organizers Arrested
 number of organizers have been arrested in McKeesport in recent weeks for holding meetings without permits. Labor leaders say they tried to get permits but were refused. A mass meeting is scheduled for McKeesport tomorrow. The mayor said it cannot N be held. W. z. Foster, secretary of the steel workers national committee said it would take place as scheduled.
 Proclamations were issued by vari- ous burgesses but were confined to the usual legal form of calling upon all citizens 10 keep the peace. The Pitts burg police authorities also have laid plans to maintain order around the
