CONF ERENCE WITH
WORKERS REFUSED
BY {. R. GRACE
Head of Bethlehem Company
Declines to Deal With En-
pIoyes COMMITTEES May
Mean a Spread of the Strike


Pittsburgh Pa. Sept 25.-President
r. r. Grace of the Bethlehem Steel
company has refused a conference to
the steel workers national committee
and declares that his company will
not depart from its present system of
collective bargaining with its en-
ployes, William u. Foster. secretary
of THE national committee for organ
izing steel and iron workers, an
nounced here tonight
After considering the steel com
pany's reply. Secretary Foster said
that the national advisory committee
had decided to notify the employees of
the Bethlehem company of Mr. Grace's
attitude and refer the matter to the
national committee for organizing
iron and steel workers,
Mr. Foster said that the national
committee would be summoned to
meet in Pittsburgh at the earliest pos
sible moment He indicated that the
calling of a strike in the Bethlehem
plants, to become effective Monday
morning, September 20. was quite
probable.
The Bethlehem Steel company is the
largest independent steel corporation
in the United states, employing be-
tween 10000 and $4,000 men. Mr..
Foster said The company has plants
in South Bethlehem, lebanon, Titus
vile, Reading and Steelton, in Penn
sylvania, and Sparrow Point. Md. He
said the workers IN the Bethlehem
plants are among the best organized
in the country.
Mr.. Foster announced that the adj
visory committee had made an imme-
diate reply to Mr.. Grace stating that
the matter would be taken up at once
by the national committee. He added
also that the Bethlehem workers had
been notified by telephone of the
companys refusal to grant confer
ence
According to Mr.. Foster the present
system of collective bargaining re-
ferred to by Mr.. Grace is a ''makeshift
company union affair" which was in
augurated during the war.

JONES HAD A JAG
ON IS CHARGE IN
AFFIDAVIT FILED

Phoenix, Ariz., Sept 25r- Sensa-
tlonal charges that Attorney General
Wiley T.. Jones was under the influ-
ence of liquor on the night of March
90 1917, were filed in an affidavit
by Governor Thomas e. Campbell in
the famous Campbell Harris case
wherein the governor is seeking to
oust Charles w Harris as adjutant
general of Arizona.
The matter arose after the filing in
the superior court by Louis b. Whit
ney, assistant attorney general, in
which he states that on the night in
question Jones and viii Il. Ryan, the
governors attorney were at the exec
utive office, it being the last date
when the governor could veto bill 109,
then under consideration.
The Whitney memorandum alleges
that Jones told the governor that if
he.signed the bill it would perpetuate
Harris in office.
The governor in his affidavit. states
that the language of The memoran-
DUN is absolutely false" that he had
been advised that Adjutant General
Harris had made the statement that
the bill would give him a life job, and
had consulted Ryan about it, and that
Ryan had assured him that the enact
ment would not remove the governors
right to remove any subordinate off
GER
The affidavit then states that he
asked the attorney general if the bill
would perpetuate Harris in office, and
was told by Jones that IF any attempt
was made to so construe that act, he
guessed that the attorney generals Of
flee with the help of Brother Ryan
would be able to see that they didn't
get away with it," And that relying
upon such assurances he signed the
bill
The document then closes with the
statement "That deponent well re-
members the circumstances and re-
members that due to the fact that the
attorney general was then under the
influence of liquor, he would not have
acted upon any suggestion of the at
torney general or any opinion given
by him except as in the case the opin-
ion did concur with that already given
him by Attorney Ryan"
when informed of the contents of
the governors affidavit today, the at
torney general was very indignant.
and issued a statement in which he
says that. L am astonished that the
governor would make such state
ment in reference to Influence OIL
liquor, as it is absolutely untrue"
