Steel WaIkout Threat Not
Official, Announces
Michael Tighe.
Ru United press

By UHjted Press
WASHINGTON, May 31-Threats
of the rank and file committee to
call a general strike in the steel in
dustry next week, we're made with
out authorization. Michael F. Tighe,
president of the Amalgamated Iron,
Steel and Tin Workers, said today
after>a conference with recovery ad-
ministrator Hugh S. Johnson.
"The rank and file committee
have no legal status" Mr.. Tighe
said, answering statements by Earl
]. Forbeck, president of the Pitts
burgh district, that strike would be
called to force President Roosevelt
to abide by his promise of unre-
stricted collective bargaining.
Mr.. Tighe admitted a union con-
vention may be held in Pittsburgh
next week but he denied it would be
called to order strike or bring
pressure on the President.
1.-THE rank and file committee has
no legal status or right to call a
convention or strike" he said. They
are simply members of the union.
He said he had faith in the ad-
ministration and that "if there's
anything wrong with the govern
ment, it's the fault of the people"
Mr. Tighe was to confer with Gen.
Johnson again later today.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1934-05-31

General Hendersons request, it
was learned, followed conference
with Governor George White, at
which the Governor was reported to
have expressed wish that guards
men be withdrawn from Toledo as
quickly as possible.
In a formal statement ANNOUNCE
ing the troop withdrawal plan, Gen.
Connolly also defended conduct of
guardsmen at the Auto-Lite plant
during the riots last week, and fiat
ly denied that troops could be
charged with responsibility for
deaths of two men fatally shot.
A twenty-four-hou truce in the
threatened strike of all Toledo Edi-
son electrical workers, and renewed
hope that the bloody electric Auto
Lite walkout may be settled without
further violence, gave government
conciliators brief additional time for
efforts to prevent the general SYM
pathy strike scheduled for tomor-
row.
