Reds Plan to Use Unions Conspiracy Charges Data for Inquiry
Pittsburgh September 29 The United States Senate committee holds crucial data on the revolutionary steel strike. Information from Pennsylvania and Ohio will be shared with investigators Wednesday unless Judge Gary of United States Steel reveals it following questions by Senator Kenyon. The steel firms claim radicals seek power under a cloak of the American Federation of Labor and say proof will be presented to the committee. Meanwhile Pittsburgh workers return to some plants after six days of walkouts, newspapers printing ads in six languages signaling a shift toward resuming work. The center of the strike remains Pittsburgh as organizers flood in, with broader implications for other steel centers and national labor tensions.
