W. W. Agitator Urges Workers Not to Accept Employers’ Offer, Derby, Conn., . 21.—The latest effort to end the strike of weavers employed at the Sidney Blumenthal mills in Sheiton, proved unfruitful to- night when a mass meeting of the) strikers was held in Gould armory, to | listen to and discuss a proposition made by Mayor Sullivan. The armory was packed to the doors and the meet- ing was an orderly one. Mayor Sul- livan, who has been in consultation | with the mill authorities, urged the | strikers to accept 'a compromise offer made by Mr. Blumenthal. In brief, the compromise offer would take back some of the strikers now, and the re- mainder in twelve days; the fifty-five hour law would be enforced and there would be no reduction in pay. The pay hereafter would be made weekly instead of semi-weekl. Miss Matilda Rabinovitch the Indus- trial Workers of the World leader, urged the strikers to stick to their original demands. - Her remarks were loudly applauded by the strikers, ]which showed the trend of the meet- ng. After the gathering, Mayor Sullivan seid his position in the strike from now on would remain neutral.
