ONE FURNACE
At RIVERSIDE
IS OPERATING
REPORTER FINDS
TUBE BEING MADE AT BEN
wOOD-soo MEN WORKING.
One Furnace In Plato Department to Be
Started Today-Ptckets W1thdraWn-
Mill Has Good Coal Supply.

When the Riverside plant of the Ma
tional Tube company at Bcnwood closed
for the day turn yesterday afternoon,
approximately 900 workers pasScd
through the gates. The pickctS or the
striking steel workers had been With
drawn late in the AFTERNOON and al al
carly hour this morning there did not
seem TO be- any indication that they would
return for duty at the big plant. IL Is
tho first time for weeks that they nave
not been on duty.
An IntClligcnccr reporter made Trip
to the Riverside and found that one OF
the furnaces in the Tube Department
had been fired. and that pipe was being
turned out at this furnace. a NUMBER
of skilled workmrn were on duty, with
a large force of lahorCrS among them.
The statement of workmcn about the
plant was to the effect that one furnace
in the plate department would be started
some time this afternoon and that the
balance Of the furnaces at both the tube
and the plate departments would be put
on as soon as possible. 1t is expected
that several additional furnaces Will be
started this week.
Contrary to reports received during
the past few days. it was found that
there was Il supply Of coal on hand, and
the fuel shortage will not hamper the
plant for some time to come. even
though il should be operating in full.
\ number of tho mill workers were IN
tcrviewrd and stated that they had read
with interest the reports received from
other parts of the country. by the mill
men who were named to make the invcs-
tigation and they were of the opinion
that it was useless 10 remain out here,
with other plants of the National Tube
company nj Pittsburgh and Elwood City
operating in full.
That the men have no intention of so
ing back on their union was the general
report. but they simply did not see their
way clear To remain out with othcf
plants going in full The activity about
the mill was on n larger scale than ever
before since the strike was called and
there was no trouble of any about the
plant.

pressure that is being applied 10 them.
Sometimes the prcssire will be very

part whcr, III" pressure is light. ana
thus for Il big wind. When the pressure
stops the wind stops.
We have probably felt the wind which
comes out OF the valve Of the automo-
bile tire when the cap is taken off to
pump up the tire. 1t is Il rca wind that
comes out. The reason is that the air
in the tube Of the tire is under great
pressure and when the opportunity Is
given to get where the pressure Is light
il starts for that place with rush and
comes out Of the valve real wind.

whers Is The wind when 1t Is Not
blowing

The answer is. Of course. that there
isn't any wind then. TO UNDERSTAND
this perfectly We must study niue
and find out what wind is. In PLAIN
words, II is nothing more than moving
air.
II YOU make Il hole in the bottom Of

water will rush out before you know H.
That IS about what happens to make
the wind. The air is constantly full OF
air currents like the currents YOU can
see IN u river. Down the middle to the
river YOU may notice softly flowing
