TO ORGANIZE STEEL REGARDLESS AS TO
 TIME OR PRICE

By International Labor News Service.
 Portland Ore, Oct. 1o,-Stee1 is to be organized, no matter how long 1t takes.
 William Hannon, Secretary of the Executive Council of National and In- ternational Unions in the Steel Industry, announced plans for great campaign at the A. F. of L. convention here. The big facts are these:
 1.-The plans call for the expenditure of $1,OO0,000 if necessary.
 2-Three hundred and fifty thousand workers are to be organized.
 Authorization and the 8hour day are the objectives.
 4-On1y about 30 per cent, of steel workers now have eight hour day, while 40 per cent. work ten hours, with the remaining 30 per cent. working F hours a day.
 5.-Ihe plan covers tWo-year peri cd, to be extended if necessary, begin ming i'll a big circle, converging on Pitts burgh, tEe great center and stronghold.
 Organizers are not to be sent into the Pittsburgh district until all other steel centers have been organized. A meeting of the Council will be held i'll Pittsburgh within the next two or three weeks to lay plans for this big converging move ment At least 100 additional organi- gers will be sent into the steel districts within the next few weeks, MT. Han non said.
 The Council now has headquarters i'll operation in Chicago, with branches in Gary, Joliet, South Chicago and adjoin- ing territory. Other branches are being established at Cleveland, Bethlehem, Harrisburg and Reading, Pa, Buffalo and Dunkirk, N. Y., and Wheeling, w. Va
 "Less than thirty per cent. of the steel workers have been put on the g. hour basis sai Mir. Hannon, who de- clared that about forty pei cent of the steel workers are now on the 10-hour basis, while thirty per cent. still work the 12-hour shift
 We are fighting for the 8-hour day and better working conditions" Mr. I1annon continued. Our campaign will be conducted in accord with the rules and policies of the American Federation of Labor. We want no talk of strike. We have a big job ahead and it may last for two years We are prepared to fight indefinitely if necessary to union- ize the steeli industry"

 Officers of the union were forced, therefore, to look about for suitable locations meeting their requirements Ata one time 1t was proposed to buy Madison Square Garden, rage the his- toric~structure and erevt in it's place a modern office building, with audi toriums, lecture halls and medical clinics. It was found more practicable, after the plan had received some study, to work out an arrangement with the joint board and install 1t in a modern seven-story building at the corner of Lexington avenue and Twenty-hfth street, where 1t serves as clearing house for union affairs.
 This is nucleus around which sew eral of the locasl in the union have gathered by making purchases in ad- joining blocks along Lexington ave nue and, on Twenty-fifth street TheseSpurchases have been made quietly during, the last few months so that now, the union owns more real estate in the city than all of the other labor unions combined The list and valuations, as compiled by Mr. Rap lowitz, follow: Building and Location.

BY THE WAY Comment and Criticism About Things Doing in the World.

Dr. John A. Ryan deserves he hanks of organized labor and of progressive people generally for his sharp attack on the decision of the United States Su- preme Court declaring the District of Columbia minimum wage law unconstl- tutional.
 Dr. Ryan, who is a noted economist and professor of political science at the Catholic University, Washington, D. C., doesn't mince words in condemning the decision is "deplobale," and says there are no provisions in the United States Constitution which clearly and un- mistakably conflict with the provisions of the minimum wage law"
 Then Dr. Ryan proceeds to show what the policy of the Supreme Court really means He says:
 "The individual liberty which the ma jority of the Supreme Court would vim dicate against arbitrary restraint IS in reality the liberty of few powerful and cunning individuals to oppress large numbers of their fellows.
 Tt is the liberty of the strong to vio- late the natural rights of the weak.
 "It is the liberty that Is always dear to the thug, the burglar, the sneak thief, the crooked gambler, and every other anti-social malefaotor who feels cap
 
 fellow man in an unregulated competi- tive stru~~le"
 Strong words, but true. Would that there were more men like Dr. Ryan Ill our higher educational institutions!
 Deadly grade crossings on the Penn sylvannia railroad continue to take their toll of lives Crossings at HepburnviIIe, Pa, and Rootstown, Ohio, make the la test additions to the long list of Penn sy1vannia killings At Hepburnville three persons were killed and seven in jured, while at Rootstown eight child ren were killed and three badly hurt
 The accidents were only two of many that have occurred on the Pennsylvania system in recent months The Pennsy1- vania has found plenty of money to fight it's shopmen and other organized work CTS, but 1t has no money to abolish or adequately safeguard its dangerous grade crossings.
 And yet the Pennsylvania executives, in common with the executives of many other rail lines, profess to see no req son why public hostility to the railroads IS growing

Many residents of Holland street
 and in the region near BidweIl's cor ner were interviewed in relation to re- ported neighborhood disputes and
 expressions of i'll feeling, but it was the consensus that much of this feel ing had died out, particularly so since
 a number of the former strikers had
 returned to their old jobs. Jacob Reisler, a grower on Holland street, in the heart of the shop district, said
 he was there during the strike and that while a good deal of feeling was then manifest 1t has now declined to an occasional ripple"
