With Gary Corporation
in Behalf of Open Shop
Three Elected at
. Committee Hearing

by Untermyer; Hot Ver-
bal Clashes Mark Session

Coz ,inuing its inquiry into the open
shop activities Of the giant steel cor
porations of the country, the Lockwood
Committee on Housing heard testimony
yesterday purporting to show that the
National Erectors' Association had
worked hand in glove with the United
States Steel Corporation in the matter
Of fixing wages and pushing the open
shop movement.
Yesterdays session was one Of the
liveliest Of all the hearings, marked
with defiant witnesses in repeated
verbal combats with the committees
counsel and continued Interruptions
with demonstrations by spectators tina.
jammed the hearing chamber in City
Hall.
The climax was reached when three
steel men We're elected for INTERRUPT
tions and alleged prompting of wit
nesses. Another was twice judged in
contempt for refusing to produce GER
tain records.
ErectOrS Counsel Elected
Walter Drew, counsel and labor COM
missioner for the National Erectors'
Association, was the first person eject
ed from the hearing room By the ser
geant-at-arms. He made occasional re-
marks from time to time in the course
OF the examination of various witnesses
and objected to some questions Mr..
Untermyer asked Charles E. Cheney
secretary of the association. He was
put out Of the room at the demand Of
Samuel Untcrmyer, the committee's 8
counsel.
A few minutes later W. w. Corlett,
general solicitor. for the American
Bridge Company, and A. L. Batas, d.
visional contractor and engineer for
the same company. were escorted from
the chamber for alleged prompting of
Joshua Hatfield, vice-president Of the
company.
The man twice adjudged in contempt
was Captain Robert J. Foster, private
detective, alleged head of the "espion-
age system" of the National Erectors'
Association. All through his examina-
tion he adopted defiant attitude,
fatty refusing to produce reports Of
his agents in the steel industry and
in union organizations, on the ground
that it was not pertinent to the in
quiry and would endanger their lives.
Evidence Of doctoring of records was
offered by Charles 4. Cheney, the asso-
citation secretary, who admitted Walter
Drew had given him instructions to
alter the minutes by making omissions
relating to meetings at which relations
with the United States Steel Corpora
tion were discussed.
One Firm Handled Steel
Vice President Hatfield denied know
ing anything about general policy of
his company, the American Bridge
Company, subsidiary of the United
States Steel Corporation, to refuse
structural steel to New York builders
for erection on a union shop basis. He
declared, however, that al the company
steel was handled in the New York dis
trict by the firm of Post & McCord, an
open shop concern and member Of the
Iron League.
William J. Bowen, president; Thom-
as 4. Preecc, first president, and
j. William Dobson, secretary Of the

at Indianapolis, took the stand to deny
statements given last week by W. K.

1t has been said that man learns
largely by his curiosity. Certainly
the man who is always curious and
wants to know the easons for many
things will unconsciously absorb a
lot OF knowledge about that particu-
lar thing, especially If he is aggress-
i've in his thoughts and systematic in
analyzing and deducing conclusions.
Make your farm an experiment sta.
ton. Luther Burbank is an example
of a man working with nature. Why
can't you be such a man?

held a very interesting meeting at the

tendance, about forty being present,
and a more enthusiastic gathering of
women has not been seen in Ocala

as though this club is going to be one

member to make it of great benefit to
every woman or girl in business. To
awaken more interest and enlighten
all members with knowledge of the
true meaning Of this organization,
there will probably be given at an
early date, luncheon, to which will
be invited some of the prominent
women of the state to tell this cluD
the experiences of others in order
that Ocala may have the opportunity
of ranking first with other clubs of
the state.

dents chair. being selected as tenn
porary chairman at the first meeting
and after discussions on the aims, of
the club, the reading of the constitu-
tion and bylaws, the meeting was

ficers, and the following were nomi-
mated and elected:
President, Miss Winnie Hunt; first
vice president. Miss Onie Chazal; Sec
ond vice president, Miss Lille Frost;
recording secretary, Miss Ruth Erwin;
corresponding secretary, Miss Sidney
Perry; treasurer, Miss Mabel Akin;
auditor, Miss Edna Sipple; publicity
reporter, Miss Alice Bullock; general
director, Mrs. E. A. Osborne.
1t was decided that regular meet,
ings shall be held on the first and
third Tuesdays of each month, but

decided on. There was a committee
appointed to obtain information or
this subject. 1t will be announced
later just where the meeting for th'

held
