As steel operators and union leaders marshal their forces for what appears to be a showdown battle on the question of organizing steel, the issue recalls the anniversary of the historic Homestead strike took place on July 23, 1892. The Homestead strike marked the climax of the first concerted and large-scale effort to organize the steel industry. The Pennsylvania city was turned into a virtual battleground when Henry Frick, man-

missionership and to retain it. Virtually all Filipino ieaders Including commonwealth president Manuel L. Quezon and John W. Haussemiann. Philippine multimillionaire mining magnate, begged Murphy Ito retain hie» present, post. Murphy is tremendously popular in the Philippines because of his sympathetic attitude and understanding of Filipino problems. Democratic bailers in Michigan.' on the other hand, urged him to enter the gubernatorial race because they believed his tremendous personal popularity there would carry the party to victory in the November elections. Murphy formerly was mayor of Detroit. The red haired, soft spoken man who guided the destinies of the Philippines for the United States, made hfe announcement in

ager of the Homestead mills, attempted to import Pinkerton men to the mills. Ten were killed and scores seriously injured when armed forces of steel mills battled the workers. The strike ended in failure and marked the decline of the Amalgamated Association of Iron and Steel Workers. It remains to be seen whether the new union movement, headed by John Lewis, president of United Mine Workers, can succeed.

He was expected j to be charged with murder in commission of a felony, a crime I currying a mandatory death sen-' fence upon conviction.
