Mattress Company
Explains Difficulty.

The Spokane Mattress and Uphol-
etering company denies that its diff
Guilty with the union is such as an
nounced. The secretary stated that
only eight men walked out and that
three of these have already returned
to work.
"The matter Is not at all as has
been represented" said Mr.. Waldrich.
'"rhere Is very little difficulty and
we have union men still In our en-
ployment. The report that we do not
want to recognize the union Is abso-
lutely false. We never ask man
whether or not he belongs to a labor
organization. So long as he performs
his part in a satisfactory manner we
do not care to what he belongs.
1T is also untrue to say that we
pay some married men only 81 q
week. We give no one less than 81
per day and I'm the great number of
cases we pay above the union scale"
