IDLE
Bucher-Gibbs Molders
Not at Work.

Eighteen molders at the Bucher &
Gibbs Plow> company's plant, who
have been idle for the past week, say
they are out on a strike bcause of the
failure on the part of the company to
grant at once demand for an increase
in pay. The company strenuously de-
nies the existence of any differences
with its employees, and says the stop
page of work in the molding rooms
which took place Thursday, March 20
was due to an insufficient supply OF
coke to carry on operations. The
molders tell different tale, and say
that an increase of wages must be
forthcoming before they will resume
work at the plant.
According to their statement an in.
crease of fifteen per cent is asked on
the daily wages with small decrease
of the amount of work to be done fol

They say they are well organized anf

demands are granted. They have mp
pointed committee to confer with thu
company. but all efforts made so fai
to effect a settlement have been un
successful.
Secretary Poyser, of the Bucher &
Gibbs company. was asked for infor
nation regarding the situation Thurs
day evening. Mr.. Poyser insisted tha
no difficulties existed between tn,
company and It's men and said that th,
shortage of coke was solely responsi
Bile for the idleness of the molders
He stated that efforts mad
to procure a supply from local firms
had failed because of shortage in tn,
supply elsewhere, but that the com
pany had received shipment Thurs
day which would enable it to RESUME

Salem, March 2S.-That the Morgan
Engineering company of Alliance is
finding great difficulty in securing peo-
pie to work for them while the present
strike is on there has been demonstrat,
ed by the fact that this week the com
pany has made an effort to have the
laundry work of the men who are now
quartered in their shops to break the
strike done by Salem lauudrymen. The
Salem laundrymen at once refused pre-
emptorily to handle the business.
The strike has been far-reaching In
Alliance, and the strikers have, OF
course, done all in their power tc
legitimately prevent the breaking oI
tho strike by the men who have beer
imported. A large number of Alliance
business firms have utterly refused tt
supply the Morgan Manufacturing Co
with clothing, groceries, etc.
With these men quartered constant
ly at the shops, 1t Is necessary for the
company to make some provision fol
their laundry work. 1t is the supposi
tion that none of the Alliance laundriei
would handle the business, for earl!
this week both of the Salem laundrie'
were approached by the firm with Of
fers for the contract of doing the work
Both declined the offer, and would hay'
nothing to do with 1t.
The Star laundry at Alliance ha
been sending some of its work to Sa
lem while repairs are being made, ant
at first the company wanted the Sta
people to send the laundry to Salen
with theirs. When the star peopl
refused the company took the matte
up with the Salem laundry which wa

lem laundry, but were refused by thi
