WASHINGTON Sept 25.-Appear' ing as labor's first witness in the senate investigation of the steel strike, John Fitzpatrick of Chicago, chairman of the strikers committee, declared today that an agreement by the United States Steel corporation to arbitrate the differences with em- ployes would result in an immediate end of the walkout which he said now affects 340,000 men.
 Fitzpatrick's statement came after a six hour recital before the senate labor committee of the efforts to or ganize the steel workers and of the conditions which led up to the strike. Had B. H. Gary, chairman of the board of the steel corporation, met the workers committee, the men would not have walked out, Fitzpat- rick said, but an agreement for con ference now would not result in the men returning to work.
 Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, and chairman of the first committee formed to organize the steel workers, will be heard tomorrow. On Satur- day, Wm. 2. Foster, secretary of the workers committee, who has been charged by Representative Cooper, Republican, Ohio. with spreading l. w. W. propaganda, will be heard. Judge Gary is to appear next Wednes- day to present the steel corporations side of the controversy.
 Paints Lurld Picture.
 In his recital today, Fitzpatrick painted a lurid picture of conditions in the steel districts of western Penn sylvania. He declared there was a reign of blood and iron there with deputy sheriffs, paid "gunmen" and Pennsylvania state constabulary as its chief exponents. Murder and as- sault of steel workers were of every day occurrence, he alleged, and in this connection he sketched dramati cally the story of the killing of one woman, an organizer of mine workers, which occurred before the steel strike was called.
 Do you feel that the steel com pany officials directly ordered the killing of this woman?" asked Sena- tor Sterling, Republican, South Da- kota.
 "Yes," Fitzpatrick responded.
 Think they had a meeting and de- cided upon murder?"
 "Oh, I don't think they passed a motion and left record, if that's what you mean"
 Elsewhere in the steel industry, the witness said, striking workers were meeting with fair treatment.

OR ACCEPTANCE |S
 WILSON $ PLEA
President Tells Colorado Au- dience Qualified Adop- ton" Is Worse Than None
 At All; Stay in or Out

PUEBLO, Colo, Sept. 25.-Reduc- ing his fight for the peace treaty to a direct issue of acceptance or rejec- tion, President Wilson today invited the senate to take a definite and un- mistakable stand one way or the other.
 After declaring it would be his duty as chief executive to judge whether the senate's action consti- tuted acceptance or rejection, should reservations be incorporated in the ratification, the president added warning that he did not consider qualified adoption" as adoption in fact. He said, however, that he saw no objection to mere interpretations.
 In two addresses in Colorado dur ing the day MT. Wilson reiterated again and again the whole contro- Tersey had resolved Itself into a clear cut question whether the United States should go into the league of nations or stay out. It was time, he said, that the nation knew where it was to stand.
 Meanwhile White House officials in the presidential party permitted it to become known that the proposed reservation which the president quot ed at Salt Lake City and Cheyenne, and which he announced he would re- gard as a rejection of the treaty, was one he had been informed was agreed on by several Republican senate leaders.
 The presidents first speech of the day was at a morning meeting . in Denver, and later he addressed crowd which filled the municipal halt here.
 Cheers many times interrupted his declarations at the two meetings, and a constant din of cheering greeted him as he passed through the streets.
 At every station along the way the people had gathered to see his train, and at Colorado Springs, where a short stop was made, he was given a tumultuous welcome by crowd which damned the station plaza and overflowed into the adjoining streets. Before his speech here he drove through the state fair grounds, where another crowd cheered him.
 Men centered around that table in Paris knew the time had come when the people were no longer going to consent to living under masters, but were going to live their lives as they chose to live and under such govern. ments as they chose to erect.
 That is the fundamental principle of this great settlement. We did not stop with that We had a great in- ternational charter for the rights of labor
 Reject this treaty and this is the consequence to laboring men of the world. there is no international tri- bunal which can bring the moral judgments of the world to bear upon the great labor question of the day.
 What ye need to do with the labor questions of the day is to lift them into the nght-is to lift Americans out of the haze into the calm spaces where men look at things without tragedy The more men you get in a great discussion the more you ex- clude practicability. Men everywhere Bill say the problem of labor is not greater than the problem of human. Ey.
 We must see that all questions which have disturbed the world are considered, which have extended into the question Of the duty of man to-
