 TO THREE

MEXICALI, Lower California, July 27-Police, state and federal authoN- ties expressed confidence today that there would be no resumption of the violence of last Saturday night, when three were killed and several wound ed, five seriously, as a result of bat tie between police and group of de posed councilmen, headed by Mayor Juan Loera and Congressman Rican Covarrubia.

NEW YORK, July 27-Elbert Gary, head of the United States Steel Cor poration, today stated that abolition of the twelve-hour day, in the steel in dustry, recently pledged to President Harding, probably would be begun within the next six weeks.
 Speaking through his secretary, MT. Gary said:
 "We shall probably commence ac- lively taking steps to reduce the num- Der of twelve-hour workers within the next six weeks"
 He declined to reveal the machin- cry already set in motion to abolish the twelve-hour day, nor would he es- innate the number of workers who would be affected within the six week period.
 Labor leaders have shown intense interest as to when the steel industry would begin making good its promise to the president. The most positive as sertion previously made by MT. Gary was that steps toward wiping out the twelve-hour day would soon be taken, when increasing labor supplies were obtained from the negroes of South Mexico and the Philippines.
