Steel In Monopoly Control,
Nem Labor Fact Book Reveals

NEW YORK.-The American Iron

perately to avert the steel strike, is
an example of monopoly control by
q strong trade association, accord
ing to the Labor Research Assooia-
ton in the second volume of the

association control under the New

group in an analysis Of monopoly
development under N.R.A. and the
capitalist program for the crisis.
The board of directors of the Iron

the key position Of initiating the
steel code, but has also had charge
of the code administration. 1t is the

Chicago Seamen Win

CHICAGO, June IA. - Chicago

that has already won them reg

Of the flop house, and forced the
federal government to give relief
direct.
seyenty-five orders that had been
delayed two days were hastily
rushed through Tuesday when
delegation from the Seamen's Re
lief Committee called on the Fed

established only after the S. r. c.,
initiated by members of the Marine
Workers industrial Union united
the seamen into a fighting organiza-

The new Office was opened and
manned by federal case workers

Landlords who have seamen ten

SEAWAY OkAY

CHICAGO, Nov. 5 G.N.S.)
The st. Lawrence Seaway Treaty
with Canada will be ratified by
the Senate the coming session OF
Congress, according to Senator
James Hamilton Lewis.
Before leaving for Washington,
Senator Lewis declared:
II have reason to believe that
the Administration Spokesman
will agree to a modification of
the pending pact whereby Amer
lean sovereignty with respect to
Lake Michigan will be preserved.
That was our principal objection
in the last Congress. We felt
that not only the health of
Chicago but the Lakes-tO-the-
Gulf Waterway was placed in
jeopardy. This matter, feel
sure, will be adjusted and we
will go forward with the ratifi-
cation soon after the converting
of Congress"
Senator Lewis announcement
held especial significance since he
lead the opposition that defeated
in the past session of
Congress, and was construed to
mean there will be no organized
in the coming session.

Fusionists attempt to deny this.
None of the other contests ap-
pears to be in this category, the
remainder expected to be Demo-
cratic by the 2,000-vote margin or
less.
Probably one Of the closest
races will be that for the post Of
States attorney, with James H.
Pugh the Democratic choice and
Walter w. Dawson the Fusionist.
It is pointed out that Mr.. Daw'
sons longer experience in poll
tics together with his wide &C.
quaintance with the voters of the
county may have a tendency to
overcome the fact that his op-
ponent is carrying the Demo
cratic banner.
Another of those unpredictable
contests is that between Miss
Lavinia Engle, Democratic can
didate for county commissioner
from the Fifth district. and Paul
Coughlan, Fusionist candidate.
COughlan Strong
While Miss Engle is probably
one of the ablest candidates in
the Democratic camp, with her
long and intimate experience
with political affairs. Mr.. Cough
IN has made a strong bid for
the job. A campaign has been
waged against Miss Engle on the
ground that a woman should not
be a county commissioner.
There is a possibility also that
Raleigh S. Chinn. Democratic
candidate for county commits
sioner from the Third district,
also may need every vote possible
to beat his Fusionist opponent.

OF the candidates for the legiS-

CLAIM COUNTY STILL HUNTED

Falls Church police today are
still searching for the colored
man who last night brutally beat
Miss Dorothy Stewart, II, 1400
block of P st. N W., in an at
tempt to assault her as she sat
in a disabled car near Falls
Church.
Miss Stewart was motoring with
Frank Stephenson, 10. of nearby
Maryland. when the car in which
they were riding became stuck in
the mud. After all efforts to
dislodge it had failed, young
Stephenson went for aid while
Miss Stewart stayed in the car.
According to the story which
she told police, colored man
drove up beside the stalled ma
chine in an old car, dragged her
from the seat, drove about a mile
and a half and attempted to
assault her.
The girl fought desperately and
her screams finally drove the as
sailant from the car. She was
treated for cuts and bruises by
DR.. C. A. Ransom, of Falls Church,
who said that her injuries we're
only minor.
AS soon as news of the attack
reached Falls Church, an angry
crowd gathered. The fear of mob
violence was dispelled, however.
when no arrests had been made
at an early hour this morning.
