A workers delegation went to
Washington to demand the immedi-
Pate release of Berkman, Illegally held
for deportation to fascist Poland, but
Mr.. Doak, Secretary of the Labor

The workers must struggle with in

force the Labor Department to release
the young organizer. Only through
mass pressure and mass struggle can
they save Berkman.
Ann Burlak, secretary of the Ma

PUSH FIGHT
ON STEEL
WAGE CUT
Meetings Being Held
in Gary and Other
Centers
Average $500 A Week
10000 Gets Cuts in
Chicago District

GARY, Indiana, May
10. - The announce
ment of the Is per cent
wage cut by the U. S.
Steel Corp. has created
a growing sentiment of resist
ance on the part of the Illinois
steel mill workers.
The Illinois Steel is a sub
sidiary of the u. S. Steel. A
meeting of the workers from Gary,
and South Chicago of the Illinois
Steel was held last night discussing
detailed organizational plans of how
to develop struggle to defeat the
wage cut and for the immediate re-
lief of unemployed and part-time
workers.
The steel workers decided to call
a mass meeting in Gary on Friday,
May 18th at 730 Turner Hall, 18th
and Washington Streets.
Five thousand leaflets are to be is
sued in English, Spanish, Polish,
Croatian and other languages. Stick
erS are to be made and other means
of agitation are to be developed.
The present wages Of the steel
workers of Gary average $500 a
week, with workers working one and
two land maximum of three days
week. Starvation already exists.
New wage cuts mean slow death to
the thousands of steel workers.
In South Chicago, in another plant
of the Illinois Steel, similar plans are
being undertaken in preparation for
a big indoor meeting. Meetings by
departments are being organized. A
special leaflet is to be issued to the
Independent mills where a wage cut
has not yet been announced, to mo-
bilize against the coming wage cut
and for relief of the unemployed and
part time workers.
The whole campaign is being or
ganized on the basis of a united
front from below to defeat the wage
cuts and for unemployment relief,
led by the Steel Workers Union.
The wage cuts effect already ap-
proximately 10000 part time en-
pIoyed steel workers in the Chicago
district.

NEW YORK, March 26.-Now that a
large number of investment trust an
nual reports have appeared, it is mani
fest that managers Of these organiza-
tions changed their minds about the
merits Of many individual issues, but
largely maintained their prediction
for common stocks.
RumorS of heavy investment trust
liquidation during the downhill mar
kets of 1881 appear to have been ex-
aggerated. There was apparently much
selling of certain stocks to buy others,
but the net reduction of common stock
holdings was surprisingly small.
A tabulation of the holdings of 35
general management type investment
trusts just completed by Frazier, Jelke
& Co. shows that at the end of 1881
these companies had investments in
162 selected stocks. aggregating 10,487,-
885 shares, reduction of only 1096, ,104
shares in these 162 issues during the
year
This analysis indicates trust man
ayers became more interested in in
vestment yield than in speculative pos
sibilitieS during the year. Certain
groups Of stocks also appeared to have
come into disfavor, for the moment at
leaSt-notably the railroad, mining,
steel and oil shares. Public utilities
were distinctly popular.
Consolidated Gas of New York came
to the fore as the issue held by the
largest number of trusts, displacing
American Telephone, most widely held
year previously. 1t was held by As
companies, while American Telephone
was held by SO. Nevertheless, the ag-
gregate investment in Consolidated Gas
was reduced to 407,095 from 574,83O
