WANTED
SAME INSTRUMENT.
Report That a Strike Was on at
Shipyard Proved Untrue Set
Ting Differences.

A rumor to the effect that the entire
force of iron workers and machinists
employed in the yards of the Perth
Amboy Shipbuilding and Engineering
Company has gone on strike was cir
culated around town this morning.
An investigation of the report, how
ever, showed that the only difficulty
was between two sub contractors and
the force employed by one had been
laid off until the dispute can be settled.
This occurred at O'Clock this
morning when the two sub contractors
both wanted to use the only punching
machine in the yard. AS it is all iron
work on the two government boats
and the schoolship Young America,
now in course of erection, every piece
of iron must be punched with holes
along the edges for the rivets. Three
classes of workmen are involved, the
benders, joiners and riveters. The
men who have been laid off said to q
News reporter this morning that the
contractor in possession is hiring Ital-
ians to do the work. Schofeld &
Weir are the contractors who were
shut out and as result about fifty
men are out of work
DR.. W. E. Ramsay, acting president
of the company, was seen on his way
to the yards and when asked for an
explanation of the trouble he said:
"There are two classes of pay, the
one that pays in advance and the one
which doesn't pay at all. We are the
victims in the first instance and l am
going to straighten the matter out at
once, y
