five GUARDSMEN.
TO TESTIFY ON.
STEEL WARFARE.
GirdIer Will Appear
Tomorrow

Q.N.S) Laying groundwork for
testimony by five ranking Ohio
National Guard officers on the
part played by troops in last years
little steel" strike, the Senate
Civil Liberties Committee today
turned its searchlight upon the
MaSSillon sector of the far-flung
industrial warfare.
AS in the other strike zones,
Youngstown, Warren, Niles and
Canton in Ohio and Monroe,
Mich, the story told by witnesses
from MaSsillon was one of clashes
between strikers and the police,
with back-to-work drive steamed
up by civic leaders.
GIRDLER TOMORROW
The stage was being set for tes-
timony tomorrow by Tom M. Grid
Ter, board chairman Of the Repub-
lie Steel Corporation, bitter foe of
the CLIO.
John G. Stewart, a roller at the
Canton plant Of Republic, put into
the record warm praise of Girdler
and denunciation Of Phillip Muir
ray, head of the Steel Workers or
ganizing committee.
Il am an American citizen
and don't believe in violence"
Stewart said grimly. I'VE had to
ask for police protection to 60
to and from our work"
SAYS PAY BETTER
Testimony was given by Stewart
that he and two other employees
not in sympathy with the strike
were beaten with clubs by strikers
after they had been taken to the
CLIO headquarters.
After declaring that his pay and
working conditions at Republic
Steel were better than his brother
receives for similar work at a U. S.
Steel Corporation plant and also
better than a brother-in-law re-
ceives at an Allegheny Steel Cor
poration plant, Stewart asked
Chairman Bob La Toilette (PO of
Wisconsin:
Why should we join the
CIO?"
THAT is a question each one
Of you will have to answer for
yourself when you are free to
do So" La Toilette replied.
La Toilette produced records of
the Republic Steel Corporation
showing that Stewart and Other
employees who took an active part
in the back-to-work movement re-
ceived bonuses in addition to their
regular pay.
ADMITS BONUSES
Stewart admitted that his "earn.
ings" for June, 1887, for service
outside the plant totaled $1,223.
I'VE were paid a bonus like
the men who stayed in the plant
were paid during the STRIKE"
Stewart said.
La Toilette revealed that Stew
arts average monthly earnings in
1887, exclusive of June, were
$320.84 and that in May he had
received $485.67, with an average
monthly pay of $261.72 from 1888
to 1886.
For June, 1887, Carl E. Lappin,
another Republic employee, who
testified to ACTIVITY in the back-to-
work movement, received compen-
sation Of $1,321.99, La Toilette dis
closed. Lappin's highest monthly
earnings prior to the strike were
$433.92, in April, 1887.

how she knew, but it was suddenly
clear to her.
Well" Isabel said, gayly, "how
lovely" But her dark eyes were
not glad to see them at all; they
said eloquently, 80 you were rag
ging me about staying at the
hotel for dinner"
Isabel put a hand to her hair
then, otherwise Gloria might not
have noticed that its deep waves
were slightly roughed, as If from
too hasty a comb.
Rodney said: II thought you
were going to work late tonight,
Gloria. I called and Isabel said
she was lonely I thought I'd
keep her company while I was
waiting for you." He stopped
short and because, apparently, he
could think of nothing else, he
SAID, II hope your Aunt Bessie
isn't very ILL.,"
She'll be all right" said
Tommy, Sarcastically. Don't let
it get you down." And he took
Gloria's bundles and went off to
the kitchen.
TELLTALE EVIDENCE
Gloria slipped out of her blue
coat and laid it across chair. She
kept telling herself, stoutly, Don't
make a fool of yourself, Gloria
Lee. Don't put a construction on
this that doesn't belong there"
Then she looked at Rodney and
the blood that tore through her
body was sharp, torturing flame.
For all at once she saw the faint
crimson smear, on Rodney's chin,
just beneath his lower lip. She
turned her blonde head and saw
that Isabel was seeing it, too, for
the first time.
# Gloria had not had suddenly
to fight sickness at the pit Of her
stomach, a creeping chill in her
fingers and a thudding in her
breast, she could have laughed at
the look on ISabel'S face. She
waited deliberately to see II ISa-
bel would speak. Isabel didn't.
Isabel reached down with a geS-
ture entirely graceful which, while
it rewarded her with a cigarette
from a box on the end of the
table, had the added advantage Of
concealing her eyes.
The air was tense. Some one
had to say something, SO Gloria
spoke, and she wouldn't have rec
ognized her own voice. She said,
in a drawling sort Of way, Rodney,
you look as If you're having hem
orrhage."

NAZIS SOFTEN UP
 STERN MANDATE
German Jews Residing Abroad Find Registra=
 ton Laws Relaxing

Berlin, June 21.-(UP)-Nazi Ger many relaxed stern measures af- fecting Jews of German extraction living abroad today, but there were indications that a purge of Jews at home would be intensified. Many American Jews came under the decree of several weeks ago re- quiring all Jews, whether living in Germany or abroad, to register their property under penalty of heavy fine. Jews were told they had to re- port their holdings by June 30.
 The decree brought protests from abroad, including one from United States Secretary of State Cordell Hull. The protest was never answer ed. Today, however, it was disclos- ed that the government has exempt ed all jews of foreign citizenship from reporting their holdings in Germany unless they also live in Germany.
 The decree, issued by Field Mar shall Hermann w. Goering, the economic dictator" of Germany, was re-worded to state that Jews must register German property only if they reside in Germany, ire spective of whether residence is temporary or permanent.
 German Jews must register re- gardless of whether they live here or abroad. Those residing in other European countries have until July 31, and those living outside Europe, until October 31. Those registering must personally ask for official form sheets at local police headquarters, while those abroad must obtain them from the Berlin police head quarters.

The Gentleman From Fire! Dennis J. McArde of Dublin, Visits Waterbury Arranging Ireand's Place at World Fair Americas Contribution to Ireland's Prosperity is
 Ramon De Valera.

today the senator seems to have made out very well. At any rate. he was reelected) Senator Par kinson is great exporter of fine horses" explained the guest of honor. Many of the greatest horses in your country have come from his stables, I believe, the steeple chasers, jumpers and hunters, I mean"
 Visits Agawam
 The visitor from across was reminded of his friend the sena- tor throughout Saturday when, for the first time, he watched American races up at AgaWam, a steeple-chase which, although he wouldn't say so, must have ap- cared somewhat tame compared to those held regularly in Fire.
 When MT. Cassidy was in Ire- land last year he visited MT. Me- Ardle, to explain somewhat be- latedly why the Irish emissary came to Waterbury for his cur rent visit. So, with plenty of New York to see later when he makes his start towards exhibition plans, Waterbury is the first American city given the comprehensive scru- tiny of McArdle of Dublin.
 And he thinks it a very fine place, too, qualified, possibly with the memories he is unlikely to re- linquish of Dublin or Cork, and Belfast, and of London.
 "Ah, London is a very fine city," MT. McArdle sighed. And it didn't seem quite time to pin MT. Mo- Ardle to his impressions of New York even of Waterbury, in the definite curriculum of: What do you think about American wom- en? How were you affected by the skyline? What are your i'm pressions of America and Ameri- canS?"
 Well, anyhow, America did something for Ireland when Ramon De Valera was born in this country and it isn't as if a reporter was seeking impressions from foreigner; not, at any rate, in Waterbury.
