Each time he was forced down on these attempts. He used his famous plane the Win nie Mae" in all his achievements.

Mr.. Gorby said further he would
remove the private armed guard
and strike breakers from the plant
only when and if Gov Paul " Nc
Mutt can assure his plant adequate
protection.
1t was over the presence of the
armed guards and the strike break
ers in the plant that the general
strike was called, and leaders Mon
day, when it was 100 per cent effec-
tive and there was no trade or IN
| dustry in the city. avowed it would
not be lifted until the breakers were
depOrted from Vigo County.

Today there were 1000 troops sur

1t IS probable, Brig. Gen. D. Wrav
De PREF said today, that he will
recommend that the troops in the
city be virtually demobilized, and
that only skeleton staff remain.
Gov. McNutt said he will lift
martial law when he is convinced
that local authorities can handle the
cit Il t,n
to learn of the truce.
When the guard at the Dresser
plant of the Public Service Co. of
Indiana was increased this morning,
there was some reStleSsneSs in labor
circles. 1t was rumored that the
strike of employees there would be
continued unless the guard was re-
moved.
Foresaw Collapse of Strike
Guard officials explained that the
guard was increased only after there
were definite reports that sympa-
thizers intended to short circuit
high tension wires leading into the
plant.
When power was brought in from
outside, strike leaders foreSaw the
collapse of their general strike.
They had control of all other neces-
Sary industries, had chOked off the
food supply, and were costing the
Stagnant business of the city an
estimated 100000 daily.
But the presence of power in the
city weakened their hold on business
affairs, and gave courage to the
Terre Haute Merchants Association,
which, yesterday, issued a public
condemnation of the strike and call
ed for the opening of houses of bust
ness. Yesterday the city was about
85 per cent normal in spite of the
fact that the general strike was still
nominally in force.
At the close of the third day, it
was computed that in salaries alone
for the 1000 troops in Terre Haute
will total more than $4,000. exclu-
sive of the cost of equipment.
