situation looked favorable" and
that they were satisfied.

PITTSBURGH, Pa, Sept. 22
UNITED Press)-Strike leaders
and steel company heads, alike
claimed the advantage today when
what is one of the biggest indus
trial struggles the country has
known was but a few hours old.
William Z. Foster, secretary of
the steel workers committe,
claimed that the strike set for 6 a.
m, was 80 per cent. efficient. He
included the Pittsburgh district in
this statement. Foster declared
plants were "down" everywhere.
Steel company officials viewed
the situation optimistically and as
serted that at most, not more than
Is to rs per cent. of their men had
answered the strike call.
AT the Carnegie Steel Company,
it was stated that not single big
mill of the company was closed in
the Pittsburgh district. Ninety
FIVE per cent. of the American
born employees reported for work
as usual, it was stated.
All of those striking were for
eigners and common laborers, Off
Gals said.
A blast furnace was closed
down here and there, the officials
stated, but claimed that not a
single finishing mill was affected.
The Carnegie Company is the
largest of the steel corporation
subsidiaries.
1t is roughly estimated that
there are about 100000 steel
workers in Allegheny county, so
on the basis of the steel company
figures from 10000 to rs, 900 are
on strike.
The Pittsburgh district, being
the heart of the steel industry was
being watched closely by the
union leaders.
