Marks and Hugh Conover, announcer, will describe the dogs and explain how they may be “bailed out” and given as Christmas | Be: presents.

N W. TEL. NA. 9791—9792 A STATEMENT wm Lansburgh & Bro. W e wish you to know the facts, so that you may understand why pickets have been parading before our doors for the past 10 days. WC have 982 men and women regularly in our employ. In addition, we are employing 483 temporary workers. On December 11, five salesmen, regularly employed in our men’s furnishings department, “walked out.” Each of these men was receiving a salary of $27.50 per week, plus a selling bonus, Christmas bonus, Summer vacations of from one to two weeks and Saturday vacations during July and August, all with pay. In addition to these five salesmen, five men temporarily employed in this department for the holiday season also left of their own accord. The salesmen who left our employ joined a labor union. This union presented us with a demand that we enter into a contract with it. That contract required that hereafter we could employ only union labor under such terms and conditions as were prescribed. -We have never had and do not have any contract of employment with anybody in our establishment, including our officers and executives; and because of 76 years of mutual fair dealing between ourselves and our employees, we and they need no contracts. In the conduct of this business we have always provided for the comfort and well-being of our workers to the best of our ability, including a cafeteria selling good food at cost, a hospital with a registered trained nurse in constant daily attendance, and the free daily services of a competent physician. We have never discriminated against union labor, and we have always employed, and do now employ, members of labor unions. We believe that, in justice to all of our employees, and to the successful conduct of our business, we cannot allow any one to dictate to us as to whom we can or cannot employ. This position, we feel, is fair to our entn'e store family, to out- selves, and to the public. Lansburgh & Bro. 7th, 8th and E Streets
