Wsnomei* %.v :: a \ • ; - * * Washington, Sept tetif# ft the nation wide steel strike was defined IV Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, as recognition of the right of employees "to be heard, to organize and to have seme voice In determining conditions under which they labor." Appearing as tabor's second witness la the senate labor committee's Investigation of the steel strike. President Gompers drew from his experiences as chairman of the first committee to organize the steel industry and traced the history of organized labor's efforts " to unionize the steel workers. f. When he finished the committee ad- ; Journed until next Wednesday, at which time E. H. Gary, chairman of the United States Steel corporation, V has promised to appear. "The right to be heard Is what the v steel workers are asking above all else," Gompers said. "The right to speak with their employers through • their own representatives, to have some voice in determining conditions r under which they work. "The right of workers to association has been denied, denied with all the power and influence and wealth -of the steel corporation, denied by brutal ' and unwarrantable means. r "It has been said that most of the myn taking part In this strike are of foreign birth and not naturalized clt- Isens. That may be and no doubt is true. The largest proportion of steel corporation employees are of foreign birth, but these men were brought here by the companies. "There was for years a systematic effort to bring In these gangs from Europe. There was a systematic effort to eliminate Americans. They have a harvest to reap now. These steel companies brought about the state of which they now complain. "Under the efforts of the steel corporation the hours of labor were alv ways abnormally long. They never seemed satisfied until they had their men toiling seven days a week, 385 days a year. When the shifts changed, from day to night, they got them workteg 24 hours a day. "The right of association, the attempt to organize met with the sternest opposition by the steel corporation. "The appeals coming to us from * their employees were for help in organizing, But most of the efforts were Slaughtered by the detectives and the agencies In the company pay. More than 60 per cent of all the private detective agency effort in this country has been devoted to spying on employees, in mines and mills. They have been used as agents provocateurs to induce men to commit some overt act; 1 to get them to strike too soon." "In the steel industry," he continued, "men were discharged for merely talklag of organization or for grumbling. "There Yiave been numbers of men watched so closely that when they rented a hall the proprietor was told to lock the doors against them. Their meetings on rented ground have been broken up. The men were run down, dispersed and some assaulted." ^Can you give Instances of that last practice?" asked Senator Sterling (Bep.) of South Dakota. "Yes, at McKeesport," Gompers responded. "Since this strike the offices of the Iron and steel workers there have been closed against them. "I suppose that has been done on the theory that collection of crowds would create disorder," Senator Sterling remarked. "I don't know the theory," Mr. Gompers said. "But I do know the purpose. It was to prevent the leaders from counseling with the men and • making the strike effective." 'Only In the event of war, the labor leader declared, should the rights of free speech and assembly be restricted. They should not be, be said, for a "privuteerlng corporation." "I know that many of the public authorities In districts of Pennsylvania are under the direct domination of the United States Steel corporation," the . .witness declared, pounding the table.

C0IU1EIEKST IS ORDERED Ma? fee Necessary to Tafce lx*<ftitlve to Some Resort Where Climate and Seclusion «, Will Aid. ' TT«nhri||tiili. Sept. ao.--4"resident Wilson has returned from his Western tour suffering from a serious though not aiarming, nervous breakdown and unable to give attention to the greatest aggregation of domestic and foreign difficulties an American executive has confronted in many a decade. Mr. Wilson walked from his train to his motor with a weak step, lifting his hat with trembling hand, and smiling wanly at the greeting throng. After a.rest of several hours at the White House, the president was taken for a drive by Mrs. Wilson and Doctor Grayson. He was allowed to see no callers, and retired at an early hour. Complete unbroken rest the president must have, says Doctor Grayson, emphasizing the Intention to see that his patient gets It. Although the condition of the executive Is uot deemed alarming, recovery will be a matter of several weeks under the most favorable circumstances, and Admiral Grayson fears that unless it is possible to keep his mind off pressing public matters, it may be months before Mr. Wilson's shattered nerves resume their equilibrium. The physician hopes that he will be able to carry out his program of rest w:th the president remaining In the White House and eventually resuming his drives and his golf. But if this should not prove feasible, Doctor Grayson will take his patient to some resort where climate and seclusion will aid recovery. Secretary Tumulty found his office in receipt of requests from scores of officials and representatives of various Interests for conferences with the president upon pressing questions as soon as he should return. Senator Hitchcock and other administration leaders in the senate desire to inform the president of the bleak outlook in the League of Nations contest, with a majority of the senate committed to reservations of the sort Mr. Wilson says he will not tolerate.# They want his Instructions before the fight goes any further. Democratic leaders also want to know how far they are to go in pushing the Williams resolution for military and financial aid to Armenia, to which, inasmuch as It Is regarded as a preliminary step to the acceptance of an American mandate to govern Armenia, considerable opposition is developing. Then there are cablegrams from the American peace mission at Paris on the Fiume, Dalmatian, Thraclan, Silesian, and numerous other embarassing foreign questions on which the president's opinions are desired daily. If not hourly. The steel strike and the ejotlre problem of the future relations of capital and labor are matters to which it had been planned to have the president give immediate attention upon his return. Doctor Grayson now thinks it impossible for Mr. Wilson to partlcljate at all in the conference of the rtpif wr.tatives of capital and labor to meet here on October 6. A vast amount of administrative orders, correspondence, and other documents is piled up in the executive office awaiting the signature of the president whenever Doctor Grayson lets down the bars. Doctor Grayson told Secretary Tumqlty that he Is absolutely opposed to the president receiving any callers. *0 M 'mm INOIANAPOUS NSWa.
