NILK STRIKE 1 FINALLY ENDED Concloded at Conference in Chicago Early Today Chicago, Jan. 22 UP—Chicago's milk strike, with its attendant dis- plays of violence and destruction of milk destined for the Chicago mar- ket, was ended at a conference of producers, distributors and city | health officers early today. Dr. Arnold Kegel, commissioner of health, announced that the two factions, at loggerheads for weeks over the price to be pald for raw milk, had agreed to submit their differences to arbitration. Officials of the Pure Milk asso- clation, representing the striking dairymen, agreed to order the dis- continuance of picketing pending settlement. The dairymen’'s demands of $2.85 a hundred weight for milk and the distributors’ counter-proposal of $2.50 were to be sugmitted for ar- bitration today at a meeting be- tween representatives of the two factions. Should this method of arbitration fail, Dr. Kegel was authorized at the early morning meeting to name one man to fix a fair price to be paid for the city’'s milk supply. 300 Attending The conference was called after 300 striking dairymen last night added to the thousands of pounds of milk that have been dumped by selzing two Soo Line milk trains st Lake Villa, IIl. They cowed the crews with clubs, hewed their way inte four cars with pickaxes, and destroyed 160,000 pounds of milk.

(UP) — Fanned by a stiff northwest wind that almost reached gale propor- tions at times, flames swept the big- gest business block in Eastport early today and menaced the center of the town. The building, housing seven stores, was virtually destroyed. Po- iIh:e estimated the loss at nearly $150,000. The fire was controlled after a six-hour battle in which firemen from Luben cooperated. About 30 per cent of Eastport's business establishments were wiped out by the flames, which destroyed a 22 feet wide. Firemen Overcome Two firemen were overcome by smoke and had to be assisted from the building. Edward Bridges was asleep in his second-floor room when the fire started. Firemen carried him to safety after he had been overcome by smoke. Near-zero temperature handi- capped firemen and for a time it ap- peared that the entire business dis- trict was doomed. Fire apparatus sped over snow- covered roads from Luben, five miles away, and it was nearly four hours after aid arrived that the blaze was controlled. The fire started presumably from two-story block, 200 feet long by 60; an overheated oven in the Bradish bake shop, on the ground floor of the business block at the northern end of Water atreet. Besides the bake shop, the build- ing houses a jewelry store, fruit store, barber shop, chain grocery store and several other business es- tablishments. The building was owned by Ma- bee Bros, Everett Johnson, R. A. Burr and’others. Ghost of Chang in Japanese Diet Session Tokyo, Jan. 22 UPM—Despite pleas by Premier Tanaka to opposition leaders Mot to mention the subject, the unlaid ghost of Chang Tso-Lin, once ruler of northern China, stalk- |ed through the Japanese diet this | afternoon. | Ryutaro Nagal, 8 member of the Minseito (opposition) party, led off |the interpellators by asking the premier why the government had not cleared up the mystery of Chang's death which reflected un- favorably toward Japan. “Abroad there are rumors con- cerning the bombing of Chang Tso- Lin which should be allayed,” said | Nagai. “The government claims the matter is under investigation but the investigation should have finished ilong ago.” Baron Tanaka's reply was blunt. |He said the government was still invéstigating. |B. and M.
