Bethlehem Company Not Hard
Hit By WaIkOut
WORK AT SPARROW'S POINT
Disorder Is Discontinued ---
Something Definite May
Come In Few Days

Today proclaimed by both sides
as one of cruical test in the great
steel strike, opened with the situ-
alton still obscure because of con
ficting claims. The opposing lead
ers issued fatty contradictory
statements in regard to the sched-
uled strike of the 10000 workers
Of the plant of the Bethlehem
Steel Corporation. The corpora
ton officials claimed that the
strike call had been obeyed by a
comparatively insignificant num-
Der and that operations in all their
mills were continuing. The lead
ers claim the plant at Bethlehem
was completely crippled.
Reported conditions in the 9TH
er great steel centers indicated
that the balance was being held
fairly equitably between the two
opposing sides. On the one hand
there was nothing to support the
prediction of the steel company
officials that today would see
wholesale desertions in the ranks
of the strikers, and on the other
hand there was a definite increase
in mill operations.
