PITTSBURGH. Oct. 1.-A movement
for general strike of all Pennsylvania
trade unionists went forward to-day
while steel strike leaders developed be-
fore the Senatorial investigating COM
mittee what they consider the ethical
justification Of such general strike.
1t is not to be q sympathetic strike,
according TO labor leaders, but a strike
Of all organized workers in the state to
be permitted to hold open air meetings
and parades in times of indu strial con-
ficts. 1t is not denied that such a
strike would promote the steel strike
as we'll as one by another name, but it
is made plain that Pennsylvania is
likely to have to choose between favor
ing the steel strikers or facing a gem
eral strike.

mills in the entire Youngstown dis
trict since the strike started.
So quietly did the men enter the
mills that there was no excitement and
no trouble Of any kind. But this was
chiefly due to the fact that the pickets
were taken unawares, according to
strike leaders. Company officials de-
clare that this is the beginning OF the
crumbling OF the strike.
Shortly after the stacks started to
belch smoke a hurried meeting Of all
of the strike leaders OF the valley was
held behind closed doors. Afterward
strikers declared emDnatically that the
mills would not continue to operate,
and that if violence was necessary,
violence would be forthcoming"
Mayor Craver conferred with Police
Chief Watkins late to-day. Every pre-
caution possible. he said, would be

Strike Leaders Get Whole Day
Strike leaders were given almost the
whole day BY the Senate investigating
committee to try to prove the asser
ton of union organizers that 1.-The long
arm of the Steel Trust has reached
into the government of Western Penn
sylvania to strangle the workingman's
right of free speech and free assem-
blage." Chairman Kenyon only inter
rupted the long procession of striker
witnesses twice, once to call Mayor e.
V. Babcock Of Pittsburgh, and later to
hear /. NJ. Scott, president Of the
Wheeling, w. Va, Iron and Steel Com
pany.

halls" J. G. Brown, an organizer. said
referring to Duquesne, Mckeesport,
Clarion and other steel towns. "One
way or another they have closed us
off If it isn't the Burgess, it's the
Sheriff, and if it isn't the Sheriff, it's
the Board of Health"
w. B. Rubin, attorney for the ma
tional strike committee, backed him
up by. calling three attorneys who
have ashisted him, according to tes-
timony, in trying to defend before
police courts some scores of strikers
arrested.
Complaints of Troopers
"There isn't much use in trying"
Jacob Rowe, one of the lawyers, de-
clared 1.-The troopers or the special
police arrest our men on any sort of
pretext, and the magistrates put them
through the mill fast. If they are
strikers, it's $40 and ten days, and if
they are working, it's clear out of
here"
Andrew Pido, Clarion worker, said
he had told striker who decided to go
back to work to watch out or you'll
get hit with brick"
He had been promptly arrested, he
said, and when he was taken to Jail
the threatened man was invited to come
into his cell land knock my block off,"
He did, too" Pido said.
Mayor Babcock, when Chairman
Kenyon called him, said that good
order had been kept within the Pitts
burgh city limits during the strike.
This he attributed in large measure
TO precautions taken by the authorities.
President Scott, of the Wheeling
Company, said his group of plants had
been closed completely, as had been
other mills in the district. He criti-
clzed operation under union conditions
as tending to lower production.
