lied the charges that the strike was
inspired by radicalism and alienism as
false.

Back TO war DAYS.
London is like a city in a state Of
siege-besieged by a section OF its own
population. The full extent of the
strike is gradually sinking into the
minds Of the people and affecting every
person in one way or another. The
economic machinery of wartime has
been revived; rigid wal rations are inn
posed as strictly as when the channel
ports were threatened. And last night

STEEL WORKERS
FAIL To OBEY
STRIKE ORDER
Unions, Lose In Attempt to Shut
Down Bethlehem Company
Plants T%oday-Battle Going
Against Strikers.

The steel workers attempt to.
extend the nation wide strike to
the Bethlehem Steel Company APP
parcntly failed today.
Reports indicated that in most.
of the Bethlehem mills the re-
Spouse was so limited that produc-
ton will be but little affected. In
South Bethlehem, Pa, less than 20.
per cent of the men failed to re-
port this morning, it was said. At
Stcelton and Titusville, Pa, prac-
tically full forces were reported.
Employees at the Sparrows Point,
Md, plant voted overwhelmingly
yesterday against joining the
strike and the plant was in opera
ton today.
Aside from the apparent initial fail
ure of the Bethlehem strike, the steel
workers appeared to be losing ground
in their. fight for unionization OF the
United States Steel corporation and its
subsidiaries. In the all important
Pittsburgh district reports Indicated
an increasing number Of men
ing to work. The Carnegie Steel com
pAny was particularly optimistic. Ine
situation in the Ohio, Illinois and Gary
areas showed little change.
In speaking Of the Bethlehem stu :
alton, William z. Foster. Of the steel
workers said his reports were very
meager. He said the plant at Bethle-
hem was shut down completely by the
t:eup of the power plant. No reports
had been received UP to 2 o'clock from
other points, he stated.

INTRODUCING RICHARD L.
CANNON.

The Tampa Citizen takes pleasure
in announcing to it's readers that Mr..
Richard L. Cannon, who is now resi-
dent of Tampa, has become associated
with this paper in the business de-
partment and as writer Of the cor
rect events of the day
Mr.. Cann \ has had many years of
experience in the commercial, indus
trial, music and political fields of ac-
ton. He was a member of the legis-
lature of Ohio for a number of years,
and postmaster of Walnut Hills, no.
900 people, now incorporated with Gin
cinnati, under the administration of
President Harrison.
While a staunch friend of labor, he
has always as a citizen and legislator,
sought to blend the differences be-
tween capital and labor in every cri-
sis, whereby the vital interests of all
concerned were happily adjusted.
We trust cordial welcome will be
extended to him by the social and bus
mess community.-Tampa Citizen.
The above notice was printed in the
Tampa Citizen, we'll known labor pa
per. The many friends of Mr.. Cannon
will be glad to know he is again in
the newspape" game. We congratu-
late him and the Citizen.

where a traveller can buy a ticket or
get information about trains until a
few minutes before a train is schedul-
ed to depart. Then the ticket office
window is opened for a few minutes
and you are permitted to purchase
tickets and get information. The in
formation we got from the Tampa
agent today, when we mentioned our
hard luck in having been given incor-
rect information, was in substance
that ."agents didn't know very much,
all that is necessary for them to do is
to look wise"
, But, the question is still unanswer-
ed: What is the public going to do
about the deplorable lack of service
which it is receiving from the public
utilities companies?

Mr.. H. L. Whitney has gone 20 Tam
pa for a week. We will miss him
IN The Leader Office for he is always
on the job-he loves to work. If he
can't do anything else he gives his
lime and attention to working for the
public in general. We believe he would
make a good man to be constantly in
the employ Of the board of trade to
boost the city. And, by the way, we
suggest that the board consider this
matter and, if possible, secure the ser
vices of Mr.. Whitney permanently.
We predict that it will be the best in
vestment the board ever made. Our
city certainly needs some one with
ability to give his entire time to the
business of boosting the city. No
man, not on a salary, can be expected
10 make his own interest subservient
TO that of the public-when on sala-
" the bond is closer, the work better
and the results obtained relatively
greater.

RELATIVES TO BE INFORMED

Observation-Disclosures of sick and
wounded soldiers admitted to military
hospitals in the United States will be
advised of the whereabouts and condi-
ton of the patients at the time of adj
mission under a plan soon to be put

Combined with the order issued by
General PerShin2 to the men overseas

Hospitals in this country, it was an
n0unced, would be required to send
cards reporting Immediately to the
nearest of kin when a soldier is adj
