End of nationwide steel strike declared by committee
Organizers and international heads received an official order calling off the steel workers strike that began September 22. The telegram cites ruthless power by the steel corporation, press, courts, federal troops, state police and officials in denying rights of free speech and assembly. The committee plans a poststrike education and reorganization, with offices to operate about a month and preparations for the next movement. Foster resigns as secretary treasurer, to be replaced by J. G. Brown February 1.
