WASHINGTON, Oct. 6.-Im-
mediate steps for the Americaniza-
ton Of all industrial workers will
be one of the recommendations of
the senate education and labor
committee, as the result of its in
vestigation of the steel strike.
KENYON READY TO ACT.
Senator Kenyon. OF Iowa. chairman q
the investigating committee. was today
planning TO urge that congress take I'm
mediate steps to provide for plan for
Americanization. There is already a bill
before the committee which provides for
federal action TO further Americanize
ton ana senator Kenyon hoped that he
would be able to speed this measure up
End secure action upon Il soon after the
peace treaty is disposed Of
THE question of Americanizatioa is
most important" said Senator Kenyon
today. and I have paid very close at
tention to the evidence which has borne
upon this subject and ! believe We have
received some very valuable informa-
ton"
Evidence which has been laid before
the committee by both parties in the
steel strike has shown that large per-
centage OF the workers engaged in tho
steel Industry have little knowledge of
the English language and consequently
cannot properly understand American
principles and methods Leaders Of the
steel strikers have submitted to the COM
sd IN
languages and officials of tho steel cor
poration have testified that they have
found It necessary to print notices for
the workers in as many languages.
Senator Kenyon refuses 10 allow the
characterization question to be confused
with charges that the foreigners are
leading the present strike but he takes
the position that in order for citizens OF
the Tinted states to have proper con
cent of the form of government and to
understand the steps that are taking
that they must have knowledge OF The
English language.
~ attenpt has been made AZ vet BY
senator KENYON or the members Of his
committee TO draft their formal report
~ the investigation Of the steel strike
and no work will be done on the report
unttl The investigation has been finally
closed Members Of the committee are
watching with great interest tho open
ing of the industrial conference here TO-
day and Its acts Senator Kenyon
thought it not at all unlikely that # CO. :
crete proposals for the settlement q
the strike or legislation for the proven
ton Of future strikes comes from the
industrial conference, that the commit
tee might see 1T e incorporate these
proposals in its report TO the senate and
