State Workers Urged
to Join WPA Strike
Alliance Secretary Issues
Call for Meetings on
Saturday.

Roy Lancaster, Workers Alliance
of Indiana secretary. announced to-
day statewide meetings will be
held Saturday to protest Works
Progress Administration wage scales,
and predicted that the relief work
ers strike viii lbecome nationwide.
AS he made his announcement
news wires carried reports that re-
lief workers in New York City. who
went on strike last week on the same
issue, returned to their jobs today.
Mr.. Lancaster said that he and
other alliance officials will address
the Indianapolis meeting, scheduled
for 10 in the morning in Military
Park.
Fritz Denies Union Link
He said union labor is co-operat-
ing in the meetings, but Adolph
Fritz, state Federation of Labor Sec
rotary, said he knew nothing of the
meetings.
Mr.. Lancaster said the strike will
be in protest to a works progress
wage scale that forces us to Scab
on our union brothers"
''UnSkilled workers." he charged,
ARE being paid villages more than
10 per cent lower than the scale
set by the American Federation of
Labor union in that field.
Indiana administrators can eX-
pect the same as New York admins
traitors unless they take steps to
pay union wages. We have pro-
tested, we have petitioned, we have
demanded, but it seems that the
only language that these people I'M
derstand is strike
Claim Half Million Members
These administrators, who are
not elected by anybody, and who
certainly are not repSible to the
citizens, refuse to cooperate to
settle differences peacably.
Mr. Roosevelt has a great sense
of humor when he can call wage
of from $40 to SIS a month a Sc
curity wage. We want none of
it, and we say that we would rather
have no works program at all than
one which forces us to scab on our
union brothers"
The Workers Alliance of America
was formed at a national convention
of the unemployed in Washington
in March. Leaders of the group
claim half a million members ma
tionally, and more than $4,000 in
Indiana.

Terre Haute.
BY JAMES DOSS
Times staff Writer

Fl. KNOX, KY, Aug. Gov. Paul
V. McNutt, scheduled to arrive here
late today for his annual visit to the
Indiana National Guard encamp-
ment, intends to address the Indi-
ana troops briefly and congratulate
them on their efficient handling of
the recent general strike in Terre
Haute.
The Governor said yesterday he
felt that both officers and men had
shown such excellent judgment in
occupying the city with minimum
of criticism that they should not go
without commentator.
Gov McNutt will be flown here
this afternoon by 1t. E. w. Masch-
meyer in a guard plane. His arrival
will be greeted by a 19-gun salute
from the batteries of the One hun
dred thrty-ninth Field Artillery.
Minton Also Expected
Also scheduled to arrive today is
United States Senator Sherman
Minton, who went to his home in
New Albany yesterday for a short
visit after attending the Indiana
Democratic Editorial Association
meeting. He will fly back to Wash
ington tomorrow morning after in
specting the Indiana troops.
There will be no formal review
for Gov. McNutt because Of his ex-
pressed wish that the less formality
attending his visit the better.
He intends to go into the field
with the One hundred thirty ninth
for target practice. He is scheduled
to be the guest of honor tonight at
a dinner and dance at the Officers
Club.
Food Victims Recovering
Approximately a dozen Indiana
National Guard officers were re-
covering today from a attack Of
ptomaine poisoning resulting from
the eating of some cream pies that
became spoiled.
Six still were in the hospital last
night with Mai CLAUDE Crooks,
Lebanon, a member of the state
police board, the most seriously Ill.
His condition is not dangerous,
however.
Members of the Indiana National
Guard Officers Association will
meet this afternoon for their an
nual election. Maj Crooks has
been president of the association
for the last two years, but has re-
fused to run again.
Visitors Swarm to Camp
There are approximately $500 In
diana troops scattered over this
IS ,000-acre military reservation.
Scores of Indiana cars poured into
the camp yesterday bringing those
desiring to visit husbands or sweet
hearts. So dense was the traffic
along the winding hillside road
into the reservation that it was
necessary to proceed almost at a
snail's pace.
Veteran guard officers are i'm
pressed with the high caliber of
the present guard. One officer of
Is years service said he believed the
present enlistment is the best he
has seen in any outfit.
Gov. Ruby Laffoon, Kentucky, is
scheduled to review the Kentucky
troops Thursday and if Gov. Nc
Mutt stays that long the ceremony
may be made a joint one with the
Indiana guard also participating.
