Pittsburgh, Oct. IA Steel COM
panies whose plants are operating in
the Pittsburgh district continued to
report steady progress toward normal
conditions which marked the fourth
week of the nationwide steel workers
strike. No announcement of addi-
tional mills starting up came from
anywhere in the Pittsburgh district
but several in other steel centers were
reported as having begun operations.
Strike leaders at the headquarters
of the Steel Workers National com
mittee expressed qualification at the
steadfastness of the union men. While
steel companies reported a steady in.
flow of workers, the union leaders
maintained there were no defections.
Ther Is much interest here in the
action to be taken by the industrial
conference which resumes it's session
in Washington on labor's proposition
to arbitrate the differences existing in
the steel strike and to send the men
back to the mills pending the decision
OF the arbitrators. Labor leaders han.
ding the strike expressed the opinion
that something tangible would come
out OF the proposal.

the official order calling on all union
bituminous coal miners in the United

midnight, October 81. John l.. Lewis,

ton to attend a conference called by
Secretary Of Labor Wilson, with
Thomas T. Brewster, president of the
Coal Operators association.
Mr.. Lewis said the only thing that
could prevent a strike of the 400, 600
miners November l would be the
reaching of an agreement between the
miners and operators representatives
before that date. Even if that should
result from the Washington confer
once, he said, the agreepent would
not be binding until it had been acted
upon by the miners at a reconvened
convention. The signing of an agree
ment by the representatives of the op
orators and miners before November
1, it was said, however, would mean
the countermanding of the strike or
der issued, at least until the conven'
ton acted upon the contract.
