poor man. 4 G. Brown. vice president
Of the steel strike committee. told
the Senate Investigating Committee
today.
"A great danger is developing
here" Brown. declared Labor is
going up against stacked deck all
the time. Men whose forefathers
fought in the Revolution aren't going
to have their rights taken away from
them. il they can prevent it"
Brown is said to have been active
in organizing the attempted general
strike in Seattle last spring.
The steel strike could have been
postponed il the labor leaders had
been allowed to call meetings. Brown
told the committee. But the belief
OF labor that it is not getting a
square deal is increasing Bolshevism
and in self-defense foreigners must
be naturalized as rapidly as possible.
SO that they can by the vote throw
out those who trample laws under
foot" Brown declared. II doubt 4

"our object in getting them natural

interest in getting them to become
