Steel Chiefs Foresee
No Wage Increases

NEW YORK, June 90 G.N.SO.
No wage increase is in sight for
steel workers at present, accord
ing to the induStry'S leaders.
Regarding runors of a 10 per
cent wage increase to counteract
the unionization drive, executives
of representative steel companies
said that although wage increases
were granted from time to time
when business conditions war
ranted such action, an increase
was not being discussed at pres
ent.
PITTSBURGH, June 20 G.N.
81. - Philip Murray, directing
head of the committee for indus
trial organization, engaged in a
drive to organize the nations
100000 steel workers into one
gigantic industrial union, was
taken by complete surprise" by
the statement of the ndustry's
officialdom that it would marshal
all its resources in opposition to
the unionization drive, he told
International News Service today.
Asked what action his commit
tee planned, Mr.. Murray said:
"Wait and See."

STEEL INDUSTRY
OPENS FIGHT
ON UNION

NEW YORK. June 90 G.N.S0.
All the resources of the 5000 mil
lion dollar steel industry were
pledged today to block the huge
organization drive being directed
by John L. Lewis in behalf Of a
steel workers union for the $780,
900 workers in the industry.
Taking the offensive in a state
ment issued through the Ameri-
can Iron and Steel Institute, rep
resenting more than IS per cent
of the industry, the steel chiefs
disputed the need for the closed
shop drive and declared that the
campaign of the committee for in
dustrial organization and the
Amalgamated Association OF Iron,
Steel and Tin workers would zen
danger the welfare of the coun-
try"
Violence Forecast
Warning. that strikes and vio-
lence could be expected as a re-
suit of the drive, the Institute
served notice the industry would
use it's resources to the best OF
it's ability "to protect its en-
ployes and their families from in
timidation, coercion and violence
and to aid them in maintaining
collective bargaining free from in
reference from any source"
The steel industry has withStood
three unionization campaigns in
the last so years. For the pres
ent drive Lewis, chairman of the
committee for industrial organiza-
ton, plans to raise $1,500,GO0 to
carry on the fight. Of this sum,
100000 has been pledged by the
10 unions represented on the COM
mittee.
The Institute charged that per-
sons not connected with the in
dustry are in charge of the cam
paign.
"Merit" Defended
The institute statement said in
part:
''The steel industry will op-
pose any attempt to compel its
employees to join a union or to
pay tribute for the right to
work.
"No empIOye in the steel in.
duStry has to join any OrganiZa-
ton to get or hold job. En-
plOyment in the industry does
not depend upon membership or
nOnmembership in any OrganiZa-
ton. Advancement depends on
individual merit and effort.
These are fundamental Ameri-
can principles to which the in
dMstry will SteadfaStly adhere"
BY this statement, the COM
panies reaffirmed the attitude of
the industry at the time of the
Homestead strike and in 1919 when
William z. Foster led an unsuccess-
full steel strike.

day for the autumn meeting OF the
DOTH Club. DOTH means oxygen

Il Is all right for doctor or

In tanks. Most people are willing TO
believe oxygen administered IN &c.

remedial value. But when O doctor

Time was when doctors prescribed
oxygen only when the patient got
blue In the face. Can't blame EN-
for being 80 behind hand with 1t.
Patients generally waited until they
were almost blue nj the face to call
the doctor In. While waiting per-
haps they took o. few dozen coaltar
tablets for their headaches, colds,

Cyanosis, or blueness of skin and

has been greatly exaggerated by
some Of the people who sell such
glasses primarily for profit.
A recent development Is a new
kind of eyeglasses that are invisible
and can be worn under the eyelids.
Called contact lenses" they cost
more than ordinary lenses, are more
difficult to use, and are less
adaptable to ordinary requirements
Of eyeglasses.
A contact eyeglass is worn under
the eyelids with the rim resting d.
rectly on the eyeball. The portion
over that part Of the eye which
sees Is separated from 1t by thin
layer Of salt solution. Contact
lenses are especially useful, OF
course, for actresses, models, and
other people who do not care To
have their appearance altered by
| glasses.
1t Is much harder To fit contact
eyeglasses than 1t Is to At ordinary
spectacles. The wearer has to be
taught how TO insert them and how
to remove them. They have TO be
removed and inserted severa times
daily.
