Chicago Milk Strike <t Ends Affer 12 Hours i 0f Negofiations Drivers Get Old Scale During Discussions On New Contract By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, May 3—The city- wide strike of organized dairy em- ployes, which halted virtually all home milk deliveries, was settled early today. Representatives of the striking Milk Wagon Drivers’ Union and the Associated Milk Dealers of Chicago reached an agréement after 12 hours of negotiation. It provided for immediate ending of the strike which began Wednes day and arranged for further nego- tiations. 0ld Scale During Negotiations. ‘The milk drivers quit work at the expiration of their contract calling for a basic wage of $48 per week, plus commissions. The dealers sought to lower the wage scale to $30, plus commissions. | will pay drivers the old scale pend- ing negotiations for a new contract. The union agreed to make a refund to the dealers retroactive to May 1 if the new contract stipulates a lower wage scale. The agreement also provided for immediate negotiation and for a vote by the union membership on the is- sue of submitting questions to arbi- tration if such procedure were neces- sary. Ample Supplies by Tomorrow. The most controversial point in the agreement concerned the wage scale to be paid pending the signing of a new contract. Dealers announced ample supplies of milk would be available by to- morrow morning. About 75 per cent of the metropolitan area’s normal supply was halted by the strike. Six thousand members of the Drivers’ Union and the Inside Dairy Workers’ Union were affected by the dispute. Muzzle Season Begins; 40 Dogs Go to Pound Some 40 pups were “jailed” in the District Pound last night because their owners forgot to muzzle them or because they did not have any owners. It is now muzzle season for Wash- ington canines until October 1, Poundmaster Frank Marks reported. This is mandatory because dogs be- come cross and sometimes dangerous in hot weather, it was explained. Mr. Marks last night appealed to dog owners to pay attention to the regulation so that wandering pups would not have to be picked up and taken to the pound. ‘American Day’ Proclaimed President Roosevelt today desig- nated Sunday, May 19, as “I Am an American Day” and urged that it be observed as a “public occasion in recognition of our citizens who have attained their majority or who have been naturalized within the past year.” Sparrow Incident Helps Clear Man In Assault Case The lowly sparrow is a noble bird to Leroy H. Henderson. It provided the link of evidence needed to free assault. Henderson was charged in District Court he contended he was being ousted from the grounds of Catholic University, where he had been sleep- ing in a shack near the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad tracks. His lawyers were hard pressed for corroborating evidence until it developed that a Capuchin monk had captured a song sparrow at the university on that date and released it with an identify- ing band on its leg. Moreover, the monk had recorded the event in a notebook, and that, in turn, caused a special policeman to recall that on the same day a man had been evicted from the shack by the rail- road. When the special policeman identified Henderson in a police line- up as that man Henderson was freed on a nolle prosse. In Memoriam PARKER, EATIE. = In loving remem- brance of my dear wife.

PARIS, May 3—The War Min- istry announced today that a de- tachment of “Blue Devils"—Alpine Chasseurs—had arrived at Nm'wlys far northern port of Narvik to rein- force the siege of the German gar- rison there. An earlier contingent arrived at Namsos Apri} 19, Reviewing allied fighting on the Scandinavian front, the ministry spokesman said that French ski troops took 18 German prisoners yesterday ‘and termed British with- drawal from the Andalsnes area as “a_strategic incident.” The effect of British operations around Trondheim, he said, had been to delay liaison of German troops at Oslo and Trondheim and secure allied positions in the north. The spokesman said that at least 32 German transports had been sunk by the allied fleets in the Scandi- navian campaign and that the Ger- mans thus lost “a considerable num- ber of men.” He estimated that there were 500 German planes based in Norway and that these planes, to- gether with hundreds of others en- gaged in bombing and in transport- 18th Cen- Poster O zpnond Now W atertall y well finis ed N Befi“"*““ Y neers on $ ing troops, had consumed at least 500,000 tons of gasoline—a war com- modity which, he added, Germany must use sparingly. Western front fighting was marked by “quite lively” artillery fire in the Vosges Mountain sector and occa- sional patrol and aerial activity. Home in Arlingfon Is Destroyed by Fire Carlin Spring road, Arlington, Va., was destroyed by fire this morning. The residence was owned by M. T. McCown, an employe of the Navy Department in' Washington. Mr. McCown had left for work and Mrs. McCown and their two small children were having breakfast when the fire was discovered in the living room. Firemen said they be- lieved an ofl heater set window cur- tains afire. Skippy, a fox terrier, became con- fused amid clanging firebells and ran back into the house three times. Firemen rescued the péet each time. Mr. McCown, who was summoned by neighbors, said that all the fam- ily’s clothing and most of the furni- ture was destroyed. He estimated damage at about $5,000.

She was listed yesterday as the 18th traffic victim of the year—as compared with 31 at the same time last year—after an autopsy revealed that death was caused by a blood clot, which had formed in her leg after the accident. Mrs. Tait was in an automobile which crashed into a pillar under the Florida avenue viaduct. Her leg injury seemed minor at the time, but 10 days later she went to Georgetown Hospital for treatment. She returned to her home on Tues- day and on Wednesday was taken suddenly ill. She died 30 minutes later. Two women were injured last night at Connecticut avenue and Calvert street when knocked down by an automobile.
