GARY HOLDS

ITS BREATH FOR FUTORE Confronted 'With three possible strikes gloomy situations In its historjhrdlta of alarming proportions, Gary today faces one of the most jjloomy situations in its history The aspect is anything but encouraging and professional and business meu of the city are holding thair breath. "With Judge E. H. Gary rejecting all demands made by officials of the steel and iron, workers, a general walkout of the big steel mills of the city is a possibility within the next two weeks, thould the mill employees walk out, tho city is confronted with tho bare fact that the steel corporation can "close up shop" for an indefinite period if they so wish. Because Tresident "Wilson refused their wage increase from 68 cents to 85 cents and back pay dating back to th cents and back pay dating back to tho first of the year, there is much dissatisfaction among the E.. J. Ac E. shopmen ui the Kirk railroad yards, and before the close of another month they may walk out for the second time this ear. It was only a wee kago that they went back to work to await for their wage increase decision. The first two weeks of the month they walked out, completely paralyzed shipping facilities in the mills and forced thousands of men to lay idle. The mills were practically closed down. A like tie-up is likely to happen, if the shopmen strike again The mills have just got back to their normal working capacity. It is expected that the shopmen will come to ecme decision at a mass meeting which is to be held at the labor headquarters Saturday evening. While the seel workers and shlpmen are rtachjot, a decision, employes of the Gary Screw and Bolt workers are also in nother upheave!, because two of their feiio-.v workmen iircharged this week cn account of their u.lie;rHi union activities in the workers, they ilt icfcrid that they be re-instated or they w i walk out in sympathy.
