WASHINGTON. July "a. - The
biggest publicity force Washington
had seen since the boom days of
Gen. Hugh S. johnson and the
NRA is being dismantled.
The force-comprising some 200
former newspapermen, clerks, stem

other employees-was installed in
the division of applications and
information of Works Progress Ad-
ministration.
BY a quirk of events these 200
folks, practically the first to get
jobs under the huge S4,000,000 600
drive to put men to work already
are facing unemployment.

TERRE HAUTE
STRIKE ENDS
DURING NIGHT
Both Sides Claim Victory As
City Resumes Business After
Two Day Shutdown
BY ALLEN DIBBLE
United Press Staff Correspondent

TERRE HAUTE, Ind, July "a
Both sides claimed victory today in
the violent Terre Haute general
strike.
The controversy between employ
ers and employees that cost an es-
timated s1,O0OO0o and paralyzed all
business and industry, ended 43l2
hours after it 5egan with neither
capital nor labor satisfied.
The general walk-out was called
in sympathy with a demand of
striking workers at the Columbian
Enameling and Stamping company
that armed guards around the plant
must be removed. When the walk
out was called off amid rioting last
night it was admitted the status OF
the strike at the Columbian plant
was unchanged; that the guards,
allegedly imported from Chicago,
would remain on duty for the pres
ent.
Charles B. Gorby, president OF
the company, refused at the outset
even to meet with conciliatorS. Al
though he won his point as to
maintenance of the guards he was
forced to make a major concession
and announced that he WoUII meet
with federal mediators and repre-
sentatiyes Of the employees union
under terms of the Wagner labor
bill. The Columbian strike original
ly was called last March % on the
issue OF the closed shop.
Pickets Arrested
Thus both factions had partial
victories and partial defeats to
show for the hectic strike period
during which the $1,000 citizens of
Terre Haute and all of Vigo county
were placed under martial law,
left without the necessities of life
and forced to stand by and watch
militiamen and pickets battle with
tear gas, riot sticks, bricks and
stones.
The national guard still patrol
led Terre Haute. There were 155
pickets in jail after four outbursts
of violence that punctuated the
general tieup.
The final clash began Simultan-
eously with the declaration of truce.
While union leaders were arriving
at terms the impatient pickets
started an attack on the soldiers.
Riot clubs swung freely; tear
gas bombs were exploded; approx
imately 100 more military prisoners
were taken to Jail where 55 already
were lodged. One guardsman, Lee
Thomas, was injured.

BRITAIN AND
AMERICA MAY
PREVENT WAR
Continued from Page One)

clination to let the council go be-
yond a discussion of the task of its
Cancellation commission would not
prevent Britain from insisting on
airing the merits of the entire con-
flict.
American firmneSs in seeking TO
hold Italy to its Briand-Kellogg
pact pledge to renounce war has
contributed greatly to stiffening
of British policy. it was understood.
Two weeks ago Sir Samuel Hoare,
foreign secretary. told the house Of
commons that Great Britain recog-
nized Italy's right to expansion. To-
day the cabinet was considering re-
moving a provisional ban on export
Of arms to Ethiopia.
Secretary Of State Cordell Hull's
action is understood to have given
the government fresh hope, and
this action has been backed up by
japan which has expressed its own
interN in maintenance of peace.
Thus two nations, neither be-
longing to the league, have taken
the lead in invoking league princl-
piles at a time when other leaders
were inclined TO save the league at
the possible cost Of them. The
United States never Joined the
league. Japan resigned in anger
over its handling of the Manchur-
ian incident.
British opinion now seemed to be
that the league must act if it is 10
be saved at all. and this view is in
dicated in United Press dispatches
from Paris as having been put
forcefully to France, which seeks to
maintain its close friendship with
Italy by siding with it.
