CHARLOTTE, Sept. 1O.-(UPJ
Thousands of national guardsme en-
were held in readiness in the Caro-
linas in anticipation of more, vio-
lence in the strike-torn textile re-
gions when mills attempted to re-
open today.
More than 5000 militiamen and
thousands of special deputies
armed with rifles, ba yonets, tear
gas and pistols already are bill
leted in the southern mill area.
Partial martial law is in, effect
in South CarolinsI.
Hundreds of strikers are report
ed as returning to, work In the two
Carolinas, despite the activities of
flying squadrons.
A squadron attempted to close
the Cannon Towel Mills at KAN
napolis but was prevented from
doing so by national guardsmen.
Rival factions admitted last
night that the nationwide strike
which to date has taken II lives
faced a crucial test today as it
went into it's second week.
Mill owners were determined to
reopen their plants. They accuse
union workers of intimidating
other employees. Guardsmen with
bayonets fixed were walled about
those mills attempting to reopen.
Labor leaders expressed conf
dence that developments during
the forthcoming week would
strengthen their cause.
ave will hold our own every
where and make new gains in
some Places" C. M. Fox, state
strike chairman, told the United
Press.
AS the situation grew more
tense hourly, state officials yester-
day read with apprehension a
statement by Francis J. German,
nation strike leader, that "reign
of murder" would follow attempt
ed reopening of the mills already
closed.
The usual Sabbath calm pre-
vailed in most mill towns Sunday.
In union strongholds mass meet
ings were held. Mill owners check
ed arrangements for guarding
their plants.
Guardsmen chatted amicably
with pretty girl strikers.
Fox went to High Point, impor-
tant hosiery center Sunday to at
tempt to speed walkout there.
A local strike call Saturday night
brought little response there. Of
ficials predicted few hosiery work
ers would obey the strike commit
tees orders to walk out on We'd
nesday.

SEWAGE PLANT
FACES DELAY

That eight million dollars which
Secretary Ickes as PWA Admin
dstfator promised to the District
of Columbia for a gigantic new
sewage disposal plant has never
been heard of at the District
Building. Until today the en-
gineers of the local government
did not know whether the war
rant for this huge sum had been
1oSt-or what.
It appears, however, that until
the PWA lawyers get through
working out a contract between
the United States and the Dis
trict, no money will change hands
in this matter. The contract
seems to be a difficult one to
draw up and it may be several
weeks before the lawyers have
made a ater-tight document.
> Unofficially, it is explained at
the offices Of the PWA that the
engineers Of that organization are
awaiting plans for the sewage
disposal plant, and plans may not
be ready for several months. This
also contributes to the delay in
turning over the money to the
District government.

ton of O typhoid epidemic which
swept the Ringing Brothers and
Barnum g. Bailey Circus and
placed IS employees in hospitals
for treatment.
Ten of the latest victims arrived
mere last night from Flint, Mich,

performance here. DR.. Denry F.
Vaughan, city health commissioner
said go Of the employees definitely
have the disease while the remain
der are undergoing observation.
Some he said, are in serious con-
dition.
y, Source Unknown
The source Of the epidemic was
not known, but it was believed
some Of the workers contracted
the disease by drinking tainted
water in previous stands.
No attempt was made to close
the circus, DR.. Vaughn said, be-
cause of the possibility that
some Of the employees would at
tempt to flee and thereby spread
the typhoid germs over the coun-
try. The entire personnel is
undergoing daily examinations.
