STEEL STRIKE IS
| DECLARED OFF BY
UNION OFFICERS
Failure Is Charged to 0pe-
ratorS, Newspapers, Federal
and State Troops Co-operat-
ing Against Labor's Rights.

Pittsburgh, Pa, Jan S.-The strike
in the steel mills and furnaces, called
September %, and which at its inoep-
tion involved $4,000 men. was Off
cially called off here tonight by the
national committee after an all day
meeting.
Announcement that the national
committee had decided to proceed no
further was contained in telegram
sent TO the headquarters of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor in Wash
ington, to the heads Of all interna-
tional unions interested and to the
organizers and field men in all strike
districts.
THE steel corporation" the tele-
gram said with the active assist
ance of the press, the courts, the fed
eral troops, state police and many
public officials. have denied steel
workers their rights of free speech
free assemblage and the right to or
ganize, and by this arbitrary and
ruthless misuse OF power have
brought about a condition which has
compelled the national committee for
organizing iron and steel workers to
vote today that the active strike phase
Of the steel campaign is now at an
tion and reorganization will be imme-
diately begun and will not cease until
industrial justice in the steel industry
has been achieved, All steel workers
now are at liberty to return to work
pending preparation for the next big
organization movement"
The telegram was signed by John
Fitzpatrick, chairman; d. j. Davis,
vice president of the Amalgamated
Association of Iron, steel and Tin
Workers; Edward ]. Evans, 1nterna-
tional Union of Electrical Workers;
William Harmon, International Union
of Machinists, and William u. Foster,
secretary of the committee.
Mr., Fitzpatrick declined to discuss
the action of the committee but Secre-
tary Foster said:

"The strike has encouraged the
steel trade unions to redouble their
Efforts It has been proved that the
men in the steel industry can be or

confidence of men in other unions"

will be maintained for about month,

AMERICAN LIVES NEEDLESSLY
SACRIFICED ON MORNING OF
ARlNLS77CE, SAYS GENER A L


Washington, Jan. S.-Lives OF
American troops were needlessly sac
rificed on armistice morning because
the American command at Chaumont
did not specifically revoke previously
issued orders to attack. Brig. Gen. j.
ii. Sherburne of Boston. former COM
mander of the artillery brigade of the
Ninety-second (negro) division, today
told a house subcommittee. General
Sherburne strongly condemned the
methods of what he referred to as the
general staff gang" at Chaumont,
criticising particularly a dominating
triumvirate."
Corps, division and brigade COM
manders stood in such "piteous fear
of the Chaumont staff that they did
not dare. in most cases. to revoke on
their own authority the order to at
tack on November IL even though
they knew to a moral certainty that
an armistice had been signed.
"The order to attack Stood" said
General Sherburne. "and the only
other order that came through rela-
tive to an armistice day operations.
that / ever knew of, was an order that
at IL a. m. November II. all hostili-
ties must cease No commanding Of
ficer could possibly have interpreted
that as cancellation of the previous
order calling for an attack during the
morning of the eleventh. Most units
fought right up to IL o'clock, some
of them against machine gun opera
tions. A few commanding officers did
risk court-martial and held back but
they did it on their own responsible
ity entirely"
The general staff system, the gem
eral declared, dominated the entire

". ]. BRYAN SAYS
PRESIDENT s PLAN
IS IMP OSS|BLE {
Nebraskan Declares Demo-
Gratis Cannot Afford to Go
Before Country on Such Is
sue as League Affords.

Washington, Jan, S.-Wiliam ]
Bryan split openly with President
Wilson at the Jackson day dinner to-
night, on the question of whether the
democratic party should make the
| league of nations an issue at the mex
election.
The former secretary of state, three
| times a candidate for the presidency
and a power in his party, declared the
democrats could not go before the
country on the issue and that they
must accept such compromises as may
be possible.
President Wilson. in his message tc
the diners, had declared that "thC
clear and single way out" was to sub
nit the issue.
Conceding the right of the republl-
can majority to dictate the senate's
course, Mr.. Bryan declared:
Our plan has been rejected
and we must face the situation as
it is. We must either secure such
compromises as may be possible
or present the issue to the coun-
try. The latter course would mean
a delay of at least fourteen
months and then success only in
case of our securing a two-thirds
majority of the senate.
eve cannot afford, either as cit
izens or as members of the party,
to share with the republican
party respot 'hiln.y for further

country on the issue that such
an appeal would present A ma
jority of congress can declare
war. Shall we make it more diff
ficult to conclude a treaty than
to enter a war;"
Reviewing the past and surveying
a program for the future. Mr.. Bryan
said he ventured to suggest three
new propositions" They were:
A national system of roads, extend
ing in every state, to be known as "a
national peace way not only as a
utilitarian project for binding the
states together in commerce and in
tercourse, but as memorial as well
to the soldier dead.
A national bulletin-not a news
paper, Mr.. Bryan declared-to pre-
sent national issues under bipartisan
control.
The initiative and referendum,
which he declared the democratic
party might we'll adopt as 'its next
great reform"
Text of Bryan's Speech.
Mr.. Bryan's speech follows:
seldom has such an opportunity
for great service come to any party
as not presents itself to our party. But
opportunity brings responsibility
Much is required of those to whom
much Is given. A soldier is a soldier
until his day of opportunity comes
after that, he Is either O hero or a
coward. So with the party, opportun-
tiles improved become stepping stones
to success; opportunities neglected are
millstones about the party's neck.
The opportunities now offered are
as large as the nation and as wide as
the world.
Permit me. therefore. to present
the more important of these oppor-
tunities as ! see them. The nations
are entering upon new era; old sys-
TENS are passing away; democracy is
dawning everywhere. Our nation is
the only great nation in a position to

the party of failure in the crisis" he
said.
He urged Colorado republicans to
rally to the standard of the party,
with emphasis pleading that mo Long

said that the lack Of a handclasp at

Hays outlined the plans for the
forthcoming campaign, explaining the
methods of be employed in reaching
from national headquarters to the
precincts. During that time our
cards are on the table and everything
is open to the world" He urged Col
orado republicans to put their shoul-
ders to the wheel in a flight the like
of which has never been seen in any
party in the worlds history" Pound
ing the desk before him, Hays said:
I'VE are in this campaign to win and
I pledge you now that I am not talk
ing in vain when | say that victory is

Battles are not won at the head
quarters of the generalissimo," con-
tinued the speaker. but they are won
by the true heart of the soldier in the
front line" Buying Liberty bonds
and saving food didn't win the war"
he said by way of explanation, "but,
my hearers, the soldier in the front
line. brave hearted and true. carried
the flag to victory" Hays cited the
republican party's war record in com
parison to that of the opposition, de-
claring that "oft we pleaded with
Washington to carry on, when things
looked dark for us all. pledging our
loyalty to the old flag"
