SURPRISED OVER
STEEL STRIKE
Believed WaIkout Would be
Postponed Until After
"Round Table,"
By United Press

By United Press.
WASHINGTON, Sept 1s.-Sur-
that the steel strike set for Sept
% had not been called off at the
meeting OF "a union heads at Pitts
burg, was evident today among gov
ernment and labor officials here
Previous TO the netting officials
of the A f or L. had clearly in
dicated a belief that the walkout
would at least be postponed until
after the round table" industrial
conference Oct 6.
The main hope for postponement
now remaining lies in the possibil-
ity that Samuel Gompers, head of
the American Federation Of Labor,
may yet attend the Pittsburg meet
ing. He has steadfastly denied that
he would do this.
Officials were also waiting TO see
If the selection by Pres't Wilson of
Ebert II. Gary head Of the United
States steel corporation, as one of
the % representatives Of the public
at the round table" conference
would have any effect on the course
of the steel men. Gary's refusal 10
meet the men was the immediate
cause Of the strike call.
Selection of Gary either by the
United States Chamber of Commerce
or the president, was anticipated as
was the selection Of Bernard Ba-
ruch. 1t was also noticea BILE that
the president had met the demands
Of farm organizations for a greater
representation by appointing sever
al agricultural leaders.
