STEEL STRIKE NEWS.

The steel magnates and fnanciers
who are ''in on the know" are well
aware that the steel strike isn't over,
in spite of what the newspapers print
for public consumption. SO are buy
ers of steel. For example, the New
York Journal of Commerce on De-
cember 19, after saying that "a more
optimistic sentiment is prevailing"
because of "a clearing of the atmos-
phere of immediate labor troubles and
the passing of the danger of coal
famine" gets down to brass tacks in
these words: But the situation as re-
CARDS production and distribution IS
hardly better, nor can any material
improvement be reasonably expected
for possibly months to come. The
mills are everywhere heavily sold, and
even if working at fullest capacity,
cannot hope to overtake the market
for some indefinite time. In the
meantime, consumers in many in
stances are at their wits end for sup
ply" The next day the same paper
said that the demand for steel "has
accumulated enormously and is now
pressing the market hard for supplies
at time when labor conditions had
crippled mill operations. How far
the supply of steel is behind require
ments cannot even. be estimated"
And meanwhile the troubles of the
mills continue. Strike breakers are
quitting by the hundreds, especially
the negroes who like neither steady,
hard work nor cold weather Evi-
IDENTIFY the companies are hard press
ed because the forces they have are
so inefficient in production. In num-
Der of places the officials are redoubl-
ing their efforts to get the old men
back. In Joliet they offered to settle
the mortgage on a church, amounting
to $1,000, if the priest would tell the
men to go back to work. In Brad
dock, they went around to the mems
houses saying, why don't you go
back to work? The strike is WONT"
(That is a new dodge-usually they
say "The strike is lost.") Then they
started rumor that the Braddock
priest, Rev. Father Kazinci, who has
been such tower of strength to the
strike, had begun telling men to go
back to work. But they fooled no one,
for the men went right to Father Ka-
zinei and discovered that it was, as
usual, a story spread in the hope of
getting some men to return. The
Braddock, Rankin and Homestead
men are calmly sticking it out with
ranks practically unbroken since the
first few weeks of the strike.

no one is thinking, much less talk
ing, of a general strike. Bert M.
Jewell, acting president of the railway
employees department, is said to have
voiced the opinion of all other union
officials when he said today:
"The railroad employees have been
looking for industrial peace. They
love it as do all other citizens. The
best proof of this is that they sub
scribed to the request of the president
that no strike be called. So far as
strikes are concerned no one is even
thinking about one at the present
time"
Attorney-Gen Palmer's testi-
mony before the senate committee in
vestigating the strike of coal miners
and the insidious propaganda to secure
the passage of the Cummins bill are
said to not only encourage strikes of
miners but to induce railroad employees
to commit sabotage.
The attorney general said the min
ers had lost. This was not the i'm
preston given out after the confer
ence held in his home, during which
the strike was settled. IT. fact, it is
known, and the agreement bears it
| out, that the miners did win. But
when this statement penetrates into
the coal fields there is likely to be a
falling off of production. For the min
ers returned to work because they had
been told they had won a victory and
this information was understood to
have come from government sources.
If production of coal falls off it will
be because of the statement of the at
torney- general.
The other piece of propaganda was
statement published widely that the
railroad employees would become in
efficient in order to force the adoption
of the Plumb plan. This is consid-
cred a suggestion to the railroad en-
ployes to 'lay down" on their work
after the roads are returned to pri-
vate hands. Such suggestion is apt
to be followed, union officials in
Washington fear.
1t is therefore considered danger
Gus for those who do not understand
labor to be given the job of saying
what labor does or does not want. The
union officials declare this is time
for good judgment, not to sow seeds
of trouble.

new YORK FACES
SHORTAGES DUE
TO STEEL STRIKE.

New York.-New York is beginning
to feel the steel strike
An unprecedented shortage of all
steel products is manifest, and serious
inconvenience due to the shortage is
in prospect.
In the wholesale hardware line
there is an almost absolute shortage
in products. Nails, screws, bolts,
stays, braces and other small steel
products are practically off the mar
ket. One wholesale hardware dealer
who had just received a carload of
steel nails told the writer that he
could dispose of several dozen more
carloads of nails alone. Il am about
ten carloads of nails behind in my or
ders," he said.
Another feature of the hardware
business which will make it's effect
upon inlustry is the shortage of tools.
Good steel hammers, chisels, saws and
other common implements are hard to
find. That this will have its effect
upon the building industry is certain.
Not only are good mechanics tools
scarce, but other steel products which
60 into the erection Of buildings, such
as braces and stays, are just as diff
fcult to buy,

A Few Facts about Fruit
Although most fruits contain. from
rs to 95 per cent Of water and al
though the balance Of their compo-
sition is largely made up of cellulose,
which has no food value, they are the
simplest means of preserving the bal
ance of good health in the average
person. The cellulose supplies the
bulk necessary to the digestive or
gans, stimulating them mechanically
to normal action and thus helping to
remedy or prevent constipation
Acid fruits, oranges, lemons, lines
and berries, contain a large percent
age of vitamines, and these vitamines
are not usually destroyed in the
process of boiling as is common II
many other foods The iron present
in most foods is more readily as
simulated than in any other dible
form and anemic persons who still
cling to the exploded theory of a
spring "tonic" would do well to
double or triple the amount of fresh
fruit in their daily diet. By slim
ulating the flow of saliva fruits pre-
vent the decay of the teeth and the
formation of tartar. AS against all
