COMPANY WALKOUT Strike Lasts Only Four and Half Hours After Workers Con- fer With Governor Des Moines, Sept. 19.—(#)—Des Moines’ four and a half hour electric strike came to an abrupt end Wed- nesday morning when a settlement. between striking mechanical workers and employers was reached after a conference with Gov. Clyde L. Her- ring. The settlement brought electric power flooding back into the network of Des Moines, and six nearby cities which had been virtually without eiectric current from the time the master switch at.a central plant here ‘was pulled at 1:57 a. m, under orders of the strike leaders. One circuit serving some Des ‘Moines hospitals, and giving light but not power to a few downtown office buildings, was left up by the strikers in answers to the pleas of officials. The rest of the city and all of the six smaller cities were in total dark- ness until 6:18 a. m., when the order to regume service was given. The settlement provides for arbi- tration of wage and recognition dis- putes between a company union, the local of the International Brother- hood of Electrical Workers and com- Pany officials. It called for an election among 150 plant workers to be held as soon as possible under federal auspices to se- lect which union shall have exclusive employment rights. It provided that further strikes or Jockouts shall be banned pending the ecmpletion of negotiations. It also gave the companies the right to cancel with six months’ no- tice the agreement with the Iowa Op- erators association its contract for exclusive employment in some depart- ments of the plant. Meeting in the darkened lobby of the Kirkwood hotel here, 10 dele- gates representing workers and em- Pployers discussed their problems with Governor Herring. +The electric strike which began with the extinguishing of lights in 10 p. m. Tuesday night resulted from a walkout of all union employes at two plants of the Des Moines Elec- tric Light Co, and the Iowa Light from page one and Power Co.

The payment of freight on such shipments from the southern states hardly seems justified, especial- ly in view of the fact that there is reported to be a surplus of feed in northern Iowa and other states closer by. Ladd asked the governor recommend that roughage feeds from nearby states be purchased in preference to the cotton seed hulls. “I wish to point out that I do not refer to cottonseed meal or cake, as the high protein content of meal and cake places them in an entirely dif- ferent class.” ONTINUED C from page one: ‘ A Suggest Gathering Of Rotarians Here As Regular Affair sion member and state agricultural commissioner; Nelson Sauvain of the capitol commission; Ed Nelson, capitol superintendent and T.

You may have a number of scarfs with your frock—think of this when you are selecting your fab- ric! Suppose you choose very smart black. You could have a red scarf, a black and white or green and white checked one, and for a rather formal occasion you might slip a wide silver ribbon through the tabs. Crystal but- tons would probably be best. Pattern 1989 is available in sizes 16, 18, 20, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42, 44 and 46. Size 36 takes 3% yards 39-inch fabric and ‘¢ yard contrasting.
