But the cafe proprietors said | |today they did not intend to be un-) |fair to organized labor—that they _sim- ply could not see their way clear to} meeting what they fermed the exces- siye demands of the union. More than one restaurant owner said he would) employ’ union labor if they would ap-| ply and that union labor was prefer-| |réd. Notices to that~effect have. been | posted in at least one window. The first reported effort at picket- ing occurred about 12:15. o'clock this! jafernoon when a workingman was po- ltitely told to keep out ‘of the American| }eafe, The-hungry worker informed the} | man on the sidewalk that he had to} |eat and went inside for dinner. Few jothers were even spoken to, altho} |bunehes of men collected in front of | |Several restaurants on Center street. | Such action, it is believed, was not| sanctioned by the union involved in the strike because officials of the union said today that all members of the union intended to stay away from viol-} jence and that no picketing would be done. The announced intention of the union is to create no disturbance of any sort. Committeees have been appointed by the union to care for all negotiations leading to the resumption of union} entirely, in’ eating places. The Cooks «nf Waiters’ union expects to complete plans for feeding about 1,000) persons in some hall which probably }will be secured by tonight. The pur- pose of this is to get union men to eat at a strictly union house altho the patronage will not be restricted to union }men alone. Morgan’s ‘cafe and Chili King both signed the new contract as asked by the union, the Chili King establishment agreeing. early in the negotiations to sign. ‘Morgan's eafe gave in late yes- terday after being one-of the strongest opponents against the union demands. A third restaurant on West Third street is expected by the unions to sign’ to- day. All other restaurant owners are |standing pat and they smy that they are being Tuet by a sympathetic pub- Hic. \Conspiracy Charges) The Henning hotele cafe lost only \three or four workers, there being no union card in this establishment.
