 On the heels of his Philadel- phia acceptance speech, just as folks were locking one another over and wondering which was which among the economic royal ists," suddenly the Steel Institute stuck It's head out and proclaimed Look at us! We're it!"
 Furthermore, the steel moguls spent about half Q million dollars on full page advertisements In some 300 newspapers in making tho proclamation.
 AND THIS WAS AN ANGAZ. ING BREAK FOR MIR. ROOsE- WELT.
 LandOn's Uncle
 For one of the guiding geniuses of Steel Institute publicity is none other than William Moss man, uncle of Governor Alfred Mossfaan Landon.
 MT. Mossman is public relations director of Jones and Laughlin, the big steel firm which had It's PWA contract cancelled after It's suit with the National Labor Re- lations Board, by which the board was held unconstitutional. Irwin B. Laughlin, Q heavy contributor to 6. Q. ?. campaign funds, was made ambassador to Spain by Hoover.
 While Mr., Mossman is no Charlie schwab or Andrew Car- negie, he does seem to play an important part in the public rela- tons of tho Steel Institute, and democratic campaign sleuths are busy digging up ell they can about him.
 All this, however, Is small potatoes beside the main issue involved, that of organizing the S00,0OO workers in the giant Iron and steel industry. In thH end, thls may not bring Mir. Roose- welt as much luck as tllc four leaf clover just plucked.
 Both sides are ready for Q knock-down, drag-out fight.
 Labor Side
 On the labor side, the unioniza- ton drive has been launched af- ter weeks of careful planning. Be- hind John L. Lewis and United Mine Workers stand ten big unions, with 8 membership of 1,- 000, 1000 dues-payers. Tho army is one-third of the enrolled strength of the A. F. of L. Into the fight the United Mino Work CTS have poured $50O,000, and other unions have pledged large amounts. *s z,
 Their c. Fl. @. is in Washington under the supreme command of Lewis. Field headquarters are in Pittsburgh fin the swanky Grant building, where various big steel companies have offices. One of these, the Weirton company, which upset the MIRA collective bargain ing code, has protested against the Steel Workers have headqusr- ters there. But for one year at least, the lease cannot be brok- er.
 Auto Workers Next

Selected Poem
TO a YOUNG MUSICIAN

Play me no music, lest turn and weepl
 Play me np music, for they must be strong Who would have done with sadness mad with song, With everything save will to climb the steep. Stern road unto the end-and music ever Stripped me alike of armor and of pride, Leaving deafenseess all my naked side, Taking my lance to blunt, my sword to shiver. Not now, not now o beautiful and hoyI Not now, o rain of mercy, tide of love Leave me to silence and to courage wholly Until the end. But when the end shall prove All my disaster published to the sun. Drown me with music, and my tears shall runi

Alfred P. Sloan, IT,, president of General MotcrSs gave c s.liseriy ten thousand to the Crusaders. I have already printed the details of and the contribu- tions made by the duPonters to the Macon, 0a., convention Of Gene Talfnadge's Grass Rooters where every conceivable appeal was made to the passionate racial and sectional prejudices of the as- sembled hill-blllies, crackers" and KU Klux Klansmen.

By United Press
PHILADELPHIA, April 25-The
Penn Relays, famous athletic carni-
val, was overShadowed for a few
brief hours today by the physical
condition of lone athlete-Eulace
Peacock, Temple Negro, holder of
the National A. A. U. 100-meter title
and outstanding candidate for a
berth on the Olympic sprint squad.
Pounding down the stretch yeSter-
day on the anchor leg of the 44O-
yard relay race, Peacock pulled Up
lame before reaching the tape. How
serious was the injury, nobody
seemed to know. Doctors looked at
his leg, coaches expressed their
opinion, but opinions differed.
Peacock himself says he'll run in
the 100-meter invitational dash fea-
ture race of the closing days pro-
gram. The majority of coaches,
trainers and athletic men fear that
Peacock may not be able to don a
pair of spiked shoes for weeks-may
even be lost to the Olympic team.
Owens Likely to Sub
If Peacock is out, Jesse Owens.
Ohio State Negro who has been
beaten four times in succession by
his Temple rival, is cinch. Owens
demonstrated yesterday in the
sprint medley relay that he is in
the finest condition of his career.
He tore off a spectacular 22O-yard
sprint, bringing victory to Ohio
