steel workers, less than 10000 are
members of the Amalgamated Associa-
ton Of Iron, Steel and Tin Workers.
Activities Of union organizers, largely
among the alien workmen, in recent
months may have added IS per cent.
of the balance, or about 10000, in ad-
dition to which there is certain
amount of union mebers among men
employed in collateral lines of work,
such as blacksmiths, carpenters, ma
sons, etc, and classed as steel work
ers.
1t would appear that the most liberal
allowance for the unions could not
concede them over 100000 men out of
a grand total of about half a million
or approximately 20 per cent.

TRYING TO BRING PEACE
Move Made BY SeIons In Hope
Factions Can BE United
On Pact
/. C. MARTIN.

Washington, December 17.-An I'M
official commission of the senate to-
day started work on the possibility of
effecting a cancellation between the
two factions on the peace treaty. II
is hoped that Il compromise agree
ment can be reached, acceptable to
both parties.
The commission is composed of one
representative Of the republican and
one representative of the democratic
party and in choosing these repre-
sentatives the two leaders, Senator
Lodge and Senator Hitchcock were
both ignored.
An effort will be made to crystalline
the views of the senators. Progress
is SLOW, but is said to be encouraging
nevertheless. The optimists in both
parties say that the spirit for con-
Citation is stronger than at any time
since the treaty failed. Democrats, IL
is said, if a compromise is reached
are willing to accede to it and take
a chance" that President Wilson will
accept it.

science, in oratory. in letters and in
every other line of art and learning
that came from Greece. For but
fifty-three years, he said, this little
kindom lived at the zenith of its
power, yet in that small time, SC
great was its influence, that today
much of modern civilization is found
ed on the teachings of the ancient
Greeks.
In Greece, Bishop Mitchell stated,
there was a time when all effort and
all advancement of the individual was
sacrificed to the state. There was a
lack of individualisn. lost in the great
and overwhelming power OF the state.

C0LORED MAN is PARDONED
Governor Black of Kentucky Granted
Eli Curry His Freedom.
tAssociated Press Dispatch.l

ASSOCIATED Press Dispatch.1
Frankfort, KY, December 17.-One
of the last official acts of Governor
Black before expiration of his term of
office December ., was to pardon Eli
Curry, negro who averted a riot in
a convict camp in Pike County, KY.
in August, 1918. Curry had served if
teen years of a life term in the state
reformatory.
One version of the incident has it
that negro conyicts in the road crew
arose en- masse apparently intending
to kill their white guards and try for
escape. Curry, armed only with a
pick, confronted the threatening
negroes and, declared he would kill
any who started demonstration. The
convicts gave up the project and re-
turned to work.
This act prompted Governor Black
to pardon Curry, who had been a
prison "trusty."
