CHICAGO, Jan. Tt is reported that the
Fairbank Canning company, when they re-
ceived the contract of 2, 200 900 pounds of
beef for the French army, asked for bids for
the contract to make the boxes in which the
cans which hold the beef were to be packed.
Among the bids were one from the
Soper Lumber company, which EN-
ploys ten non-union men, and
one from a shop employing union
labor only. Although both bids came to
almost the same amount, the canning COM
pany favored Soper & Co A committee of
the Knights Of Labor called on the Fairbank
Canning company and asked that the con-
tract be withdrawn from Soper & Co, and
given to the other shop. They were told
that the contract was to stay where it was
and so boycott was ordered on all of their
beef
