L, Sept. 3 (M—The k strike of 1,800 textile workers of c the Manville-Jenckes Company here Y ‘ ended today when the strikers rati- \ . fled peace terms agreed upon yester- day by labor leaders and the manu- facturers. ' At the mass meeting of the Man- ville strikers today it was agreed that two departments, the shipping and the designing, would reopen at noon. The rest of the strikers will return to work on Tuesday. Mill workers and townsfolk today planned to hold a celebration on ] Tabor Day In observance of the set- tlement of the strike. Under the settlement terms com- pany officials have agreed, it was un- [} derstood, to place the non-union labor elsewhere in their plant provid- ed that certain conditions were met ¢ by the workers. Full details of the v settlement were not made known. The strike was called on August 18. Disorders became more frequent as the days wore on despite the coun ~ sel of labor leaders who urged the ’ workers to refrain from violence. On August 27, a thousand workers at the mocial mills in Woonsockett voted to strike in sympathy. Efforts of a federal labor départment con- cilfator were unsuccessful. One at- tempt was made to burn the Man- ville mills.and persons were beaten. On the night of August 30 three per- sons were hurt in a clash between a dozen state policemen and a huge ‘crowd of strikers and sympathizers A who tried to rush the mill. ) On September 1 three hundred workers at the nourse mill in Woon- socket called a sympathy strike. y With barricades of barbed wire, na- { tional guardsmen with machine guns and state troopers with riot guns on the scens during the succeeding davs, quiet reigned. Yesterday Governor Pothler held the conferences which resulted in the settlement. It was reported that all of those injured In the clashes were improving. Families that moved away from town in, search of work were expected to return. TENNIS TOURNEY FAST COMING TO SEMI-FINALS Singles Matches TWill Stars Battling Against Each Other.
