Of a strike order the operatives prob
ably would not be given a chance to
walk out. The mill officials do not re-
gard the closing as a lockout, but as a
step made necessary by the notification
that the unions would strike next Mon
day. The mill men place the whole re-
sponsibility for the move on the unions.
Replying to the state board of con-
Citation and arbitration. which offered
its good Offices TO aiding in settling the
diihculty, the manufacturers said:
While the companies are quite will
ing to have the merits Of the contros

unions investigated. and would run the
mills during the investigation if the
operatives desire 10 work, they cannot
agree to allow any outside person to
decide finally as TO the wages they are

Cincinnati March 28.-The registra-
ton, which closed here tonight, for the
city election on April 6. has been un-
usually heavy. Voters who registered
for the general election last fall were
not required 10 re-register and it was
not thought that the registration would
be heavy. To the surprise Of politicians
T,479 voters registered yesterday and
today. This is the largest registration
ever known for a municipal election.
II is said that during the contention
between the sO-called John r. Mclean
and Tom Johnson factions last autumn
over 10000 Democrats did not register
and that they are now registered, with
the purpose Of supporting NJ Z. IN

Odds have been given here on Mayor
Fleischmann. Republican, having more
votes than at his former election, when
his plurality was $500, but owing %
this additional registration and other
recent unexpected local developments
odds are no longer given.
There are many charges Of fraudulent
