To Ask Wilson to Take
Hand in Steel Trouble
Workers Announce Plan, and
Charge Corporation Try
ing to Force Issue,

Washington, Aug. 29.-President
Wilson is to be asked to take a
hand in the controversy between the
steel workers and the United States
Steel corporation in an effort to pre-
vent a general strike.
This announcement was made to-
day by the committee of the steel
workers, who charged that the steel
corporation was trying to force the
issue before the president could have
an opportunity to pass upon the
merits of the controversy
In a telegram to the union OF steel
workers at Gary, Ind, the committee
said the workers We're not to strike
under any circumstances" until the
strike date had been set by the COM
mittee. The Gary union had tele-
graphed that the steel workers were
being Disseminated against and dis
charged wholesale for the purpose of
forcing a strike"
The steel workers have sought con-
ferences with officials of the steel
corporation to discuss wages, hours,
working conditions and collective
bargaining, but thus far their efforts
to obtain such conferences have been
unsuccessful.

went to work in the mines of the Cot

this morning. The mine is the prop

The miners did not report for work
