ARRESTS ARE ORDERED.
Strikers Determined to Prevent Re-
opening of Steel Plant.

WAUKEGAN, Ill. March P).-
The avowal Of strike leaders to pre-
vent reopening Of the Fansteel Metal
lurgical Corp. plant by mass picketing
heightened tension today in the labor
dispute already marked by riots and
arrests.
Not a single worker will get into
the plant" Jack Rusak, field man
for the Steel Workers Organizing
Committee, told mass meeting of
strikers and sympathizers He said
500 pickets would be in the line.
Orders for Arrests.
To combat the move, company Of
f1cials made plans to petition for an
injunction to prohibit mass picketing.
Sheriff Lawrence A. Doolittle sent
deputies out to arrest about 80 strikers
named in contempt of court citations
after they refused to leave two of
the company's plants.
A tear gas attack last week drove
81 sit-downers from two factories
after To-day siege. They struck
for recognition Of the Amalgamated
Association of Iron, Steel and Tin
Workers of North America Union.
The first strikers to be arrested in
the drive were Frank Latz, "a, and
his brother, Harry. 80. Previously
officers arrested three of nine strike
chieftains named in warrants charg-
ing conspiracy TO prevent execution of
an eviction writ. One Of them, Never

Committee for Industrial Organization.
was seized in Kanosha (Wis.) hotel
to which he had come after eluding six
Illinois police squads.
Adelman, dominant figure in the
strike, was jailed on a fugitive war
rant when he declined to waive ex-
tradition. Hunted since last Friday,
he made a dramatic appearance at
the mass meeting here yesterday and
after departing by a rear doorway
managed to reach the Wisconsin State
line before pursuing police cars. The
sheriff's Office professed advance
knowledge of Adelman's appearance
but kept deputies from the mass
meeting for fear of q riot.
Petition for Writ.
Paul CHASER, a union attorney, said
he would petition the Cir uit Court
at Waukesha, Wis, for d writ OF
habaes corpus to free Adelman.
Leo Krzycki, vice president Of the
Amalgamated Clothing Workers of
America and regional c. 1. o. Or
