Many union peo- ple eat in American plan houses and many nonunion folks eat in union houses—that is the American plan. We employ 74 people every day in the year, and we pay these people $1,500.00 every week for their serv- ices, besides we furnish them substantial meals FREE OF CHARGE. Wages and working conditions are the best and are as follows: Cooks and Bakers , . . .$5.00 to $5.50 per day, 8 ho Kitchen Helpers + ++cae+ + $3.00 per day, 8 heute Service Girls ..... .....$2.50 per day, 8 hours Bus Boys . $2.50 per day, 8 hours We had a large number of union people in our em- ploy, and to the great majority of these no wage cut was ever considered, and we pleaded with them to remain with Aus, but union officials saw fit to call all of them OUT on strike without a moment’s notice. Surely this is NOT a lockout, as union officials claim, We intend to operate under the AMERICAN plan now and forever. To the good people who have filled the places left open by the walkout and those who applied for posi- tiens and ALSO those who remained loyal to us we express our sincere thanks. Surely we know by this time that the closed shop will never benefit Seattle, so let us tell the world th® Seattle is an American plan city and benefit by this slogan, as did Indianapolis, Detroit and Los Angeles. ae - want a great industrial Seattle and this slogan will do it. We feel sure that 75% of the people of Seattle are with us and respectfully solicit their valued patronage.
