TROOPS
ASKED IN STRIKE
General WaIkout Is Called
in Terre Haute by 48
Unions.
By the Associated Press.

TERRE HAUTE, Ind, July "a
Sheriff William Baker and Prosecutor
r. j. Kearns Joined today in request
ing Gov. McNutt to send Indiana Ma
tional Guardsmen to this city to as
sist police in preserving order during
the general strike called by representa-
tives of 48 labor unions.
The two officials said there had been
no reports of serious disorder since
the strike became effective at o'clock
this morning, but in a message to the
Governor they pointed out that all
members of the city police force had
been on duty for SO hours and could
not be expected to serve much longer
without relief.
The sheriff said he had no funds for
employment of a large force Of
deputies.
Held 80 Per Cent Effective.
Spokesman for labor unions claimed
the sympathy strike called to aid the
four. months old strike of union en-
ployes at the Columbian Enameling
and Stamping Co. is 80 per cent
effective.
The sympathy strike became effec-
tive at l am. It was voted by repre-
sentatives of the 48 unions indepen-
dent of the Central Labor Union. A
statement issued by a strikers COM
mittee declared the strike call to be
iy, he fofi Of
strike breakers by the Columbian En-
ameling Co. The strike at the Column
bian Co. was called to enforce de-
mands for union recognition.
Car Service Suspended.
All transportation service was sus-
pended as street car operators and city
bus drivers joined the walkout. Taxi
cab drivers of the four companies
operating here likewise we're affected.
Barber shops and restaurants employ
ing union labor also we're closed as
were several of the larger industries.
Electric service is being maintained.
Lewis H. Harvey, president of the In
ternational Union of Operating Engi-
neers, said that inasmuch as the plant
which supplies Terre Haute with cleo
tricity also furnishes current to many
other communities it would be unfair
to suspend service.
All Police on Duty.
Meanwhile. all available police re-
manned on active duty.
As the first hours after the time
set for the wslkout passed quietly.
police officers said they anticipated
no difficulty unless workers leaving
their jobs sought to force others to
join the strike.

CALIFORNIA OIL DRILL
ACT DIES BY VETO
Measure Denounced as Potential
Scandal Stopped by Mer-
Rams Action.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
SACRAMENTO, Calf, July "a
A legislative act which, its foes said,
would have given the Standard Oil
Co. a monopoly on the great Hunt
ington Beach oil field and thus sown
the seeds of potential scandal
greater than Teapot Dome" died
yesterday by the pocket veto of Gov
Frank F.. Merriam.
The measure would have authorized
private exploitation of the rich State
owned oil-bearing tidelands of South
ern California by slantwise drilling
of wells from nearby privately-owned
land under a royalty agreement.
The Governor declined to approve
the bitterly contested bill on the
ground that terms more advantageous
to the State might be obtained later.
Threats of recall against Merriam
In the event he signed the measure
had been voiced by its opponents.
Among the criticisms were that it
did not provide for competitive bid
ding in leasing deals.
Merriam decided three pending
legislative investigations of the stu
alton might eventually develop means
of obtaining a higher royalty and
possibly competitive bidding.

GREEN DEMANDS
U.S.LABOR POWER
A. l.. Head Says Right to
Fix Standards Must Be
Given Congress.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Congress must have power" to fix
minimum labor standards to assure
social progress, according to William
Green, president of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor. writing in the Amer
lean Federationist, a monthly mag
azine.
In recent years We have experienced
the worst aspects of unrestricted pri-
vate control Of industries" his editorial
stated. The only way we can assure
social progress is to fix basic minimum
standards lower than which will not
be tolerated. and to set up agencies to
prescribe such additional safeguards
as may be necessary from time to time.
Congress must have power to act
If we are to protect our interests by
planning"
Drafts New N. r. A. Bill.
Green recently has suggested con-
stitutional amendment to permit Fed
eral regulation of industry. in view Of
the Supreme Courts decision wiping
out N. R. A. codes The federation also
has drafted new N. r. A. bill to
license industries in interstate COM
merce and to compel adherence to
minimum labor standards.
The technicalities upon which the
Supreme Court declared the national
recovery act unconstitutional did not
seem to wage carriers adequate grounds
for depriving them of the agency in
tended to compel industries to serve
social purposes" Green added.
mot a Local Matter"
"Wage earners know that II they
get anywhere with organization they
must cover the whole extent Of the
industry; they further know that the
effective regulation of industry must
be coextensive with the industry ter
ritorially.
They know full well that manufac-
turing is not local matter in the basic
industries"
After predicting that industry would
attack the constitutionality of the
Wagner labor disputes act. guarantee
ing labor's right to bargain collectively,
Green said:
1T would be well for public officials
to realize that there is new spirit in
the ranks of wage earners that Is re-
sentful of injustice even when justi-
fed by legal technicalities."

even through untreated milk.
