Although the union had voted at 2:30" this morning to return to work, publishers of afternoon newspapers, under an agreement, did not permit them to go back to the pressrooms until 11 o'clock. Early editions were omitted. Full publication was re- sumea at 11. i Harry Wurtz, vice president of the pressmen’s local, said a committee of twelve, headed by Andrew. Rs Armstrong, had been” appointed to confer with the publishers on modifi- cation of the award. He declined to say definitely: what modification would be sought, but as- serted there were “several” points ih the award which the pressmen re- garded as unfair. 500 May Lose Jobs. Abolition of the six-hour shift, as provided by the award, would mean throwing of 500 of the union's 1,800 members out of work, he declared, as there was not enough work to afford the entire membership eight hours of employment. The publishers, In a statement yester- day calling on pressman to abide by the award. recognized the possibility that a number of union men might be ork under the eight- ion. To meet t contingency, which was declared to be “not certain,” they of- fered to pay all men so thrown out of work full wages for four weeks and half wages for an additidnal four weeks if they failed to find jobs in the mean- while. ‘Would Consider Relief. If any lirge number still were unem- ployed at the end of the eight-week pe- riod, the publishers said, they would agree to a conference to consider means of relief. The statement declared the publishers had peen forced to arbitration by the union ielding attitude in negotia- tions, which continued for nearly a year. It was by the union's insistence that one man, rather than a board of three, ‘was pelected to conduct the arbftration, the statement continued, ‘@nd- the pub- lishers expected the union to abide by tae result. “We will not consent to make a farce of arbitration by now changing that decision, even before its effect has tried,” it maid. good faith and with all consistent consideration for the in- terests of organized labor, we accept the conditions Imposed on organization, called to last night, did not adjourn until so late this morning that the publishers were forced to print eight-page papers, eliminating practically all advertising and special news fea- tures. George T. Berry, president of the International Printing Pressmen’s and Assistants’ Union of North Amer- ica, was present. Agree to Abide by Award. The meeting, which was reported to have been a stormy one, resulted in the union agreeing to abide by Judge Manton’s award, but it was decided that a committee of twelve be appointed to negotiate with the publishers /in an effort to effect a modification of some of its terms which were found objectionable. The union members were ordered to return to work in the pressrooms of today's papers and to report for duty héreafter at the regular hours. “The organization views some fea- tures of Judge Manton’s award as impracticable and unfalr,” safd David Simons, president of the union. “There was an element at last night's meet- ing wh urged rcjection of the whole award, but the' conservatives present ‘succeeded in securing a vote to abide by the decision of Judge Manton. In a couple of days the com- mittee appointed at the meeting will meet representatives of the pub- lishers to open negotiations looking to a’ modification of the terms laid down in'the award.” < ., Puhlishers Also Meet. The publishers held a nieeting late last night, but issued no statement as to the attitude they would take regarding the action taken at the union’s meeting. Earlier in the night they declared they would abide by the arbitration award, adding that “if the local and international press- men’s unions, both of which signed the agreement to drbitrate all dif- ferences, now repudiate the decision the newspaper owners would not || | again make -a - contract with the pressmen’s union.” The decision hauded down by Judge ton fixed $51°and $45 as pay for ay pressmen in éharge and journpey- men, respectively, and ‘$5¢ ‘and $45 for “night -pressmen in’ charge and Journeymen. o ALLIES TO REFER GERMAN TERMS TO COMMISSION Teutonic Ability to Pay Has Been Investigated by Reparations ° Body During Deliberations.
