FIVE MEN HURT IN STRIKE RIOT Police, Deputy Sheriffs Battle Strikers For 30 Minutes Sterling, 111.. Mar. I.—<U.R>—Five men were injured, one seriously, early today when police and deputy sheriffs, using tear gas bombs, battled for 30 minutes with approximately 200 striking employes of the Northwestern Barbed Wire and Rodmill company. The strikers hurled rocks and clubs. They were dispersed with half a dozen tear gas bombs fired by deputies. Two union organizers and three strikers were arrested, charged | with inciting to riot. The rioting started shortly after midnight with expiration of a conI tract under which members of the 1 Amalgamated Association of Iron, ' Steel and Tin Workers, committee I for industrial organization affiliate, - had worked for a year. The strikers, employed on the night shift, were ordered to walk out by union officials who said the company refused to renew the cohtract. The men massed in front of the plant. When ordered to disperse iby police, fighting broke out. The officers summoned Sheriff A. E. Hamilton who arrived with 63 dep- ' uties. ’ Rocks and other missiles were : thrown. Windows in the plant : were broken. Several stones struck a Northwestern railroad passenger train, passing near the plant. Dale Vromau. 24, a striker, was bomb. He was removed to a hosstruck in the leg by a tear gas pital and the leg amputated. Others injured were Charles Guthrie, 26, a striker, Sheriff Hamilton, [Deputy Sheriff Chester O'Hara, and Ed Collins, special agent for the ! railroad. All were injured slightly. o BARUCH DENIES .VI wn KK(»M FAtth. UNfi) - - ministration?" Byrnes asked. "No,” the witness replied. "You are not pessimistic concerning the future of business,” Byrnes asked. “There is no use sticking outheads in the sand." Baruch said. “If we don't change that tax policy ot restrict ion—which was not designed as restrictive but has turned out to be so — business will have trouble.” Baruch then reiterated his belief that the administration was headed in the right direction in the tax modification pending before congress. Robert W. Irwin, Grand Rapids, Mich., furniture manufacturer, told the committee that conferences between the president and business leaders would fail to stem the recession. Irwin declared that “business - big, medium or little did not create this depression, and big business cannot stop it.” He believed the recession was caused in part by a combination of both price and political factors brought about to a material extent by “unwise legislation and government policies.” "Prices have advanced too rapidly: too much price fixing was continued during the period by our late business activity," he said. o Seek Injunction To Halt Ohio Beer Ban Indianapolis, Ind., March I—(UP) —lndiana beer dealers will seek a permanent injunction next week to halt Ohio’s efforts to ban beer frotn this state.

The Ohio State tax board recently I issued an order imposing an annual fee ot $1,500 on all Ohio dealers importing Indiana Beer. This would have banned virtually all beer importations from the Hoosier slate. I

PLANS FOR CAMPAIGN Committee On Program Plans Canvass Os Country — Chicago, March 1 — (U.R) —The Republican committee on program, charged with the task of sounding the nation for a now interpretation of Republican policies, neared completion today of a definite program for party rejuvenation. The committee, gnided by Dr. Glenn Frank, chairman, agreed on a regional setup to canvass the views of the "little" man on whose votej leaders believe rest the party’s chances for a return to power in 1910. "We are not going to let any grass grow under our feet In the I completion of this survey." Frank said. "We expect to complete an outline of the permanent committee’s work and select various regional groups today.” The program, he said, will be based on: 1. Appointment of two vicechairmen — a man and a woman; selection of William Hard, assist- ' ant to national committee chairj man John D. M. Hamilton, and ’ eight regional chairmen to maintain contact with the contral office. 2. Organization of eight regional sub-committees, authorization for a separate committee on special problems and a permanent organization committee staffed by ’ paid employes, assigned to ret search work at a central office in Chicago. 3. Restatement of party political and economic philosophy and a ‘ complete report on specific prob--1 lems. "The permanent committee," Frank said, “will be composed of ‘ | the only paid employes of the pro- | gram committee and will l>e assigned to research work. Mr. Hard will be a contact man between the ! various regional groups.” No statement of policy will be made, he added, until the survey ’ j is completed The program provides for spe- ' I cial committees of experts to study : fields of labor, industry and agri- ’ culture, and incorporate their find- • : ings in the reports of the regional chairmen. !! Hamilton said the committees : I would have a free hand in decid-1 ■ ! ing the method of their work. Col. Theodore Roosevelt, New -1 York, one of 12 "regional" speakI ers who addressed the group last night, said the main issue facing | : the party was to save "our free ini ' stltutions and representative dem-1 I j ocratic government.” Liquor Store Owner Wounded By Bandit Fairmount, Ind, March I—(UP) , I—Police today sought a bandit who , held-up a liquor store here laet I 1 night ajid seriously wounded the i proprietor, Robert Thompson, 40.
