Theater be reinstated into the union at
a much lower fee than the laws Of the
organization prescribe. This would
mean an injustice 20 the other members
OF the union. Some Of the members Of
the Lafayette orchestra vOlun tarily re-
signed TO be able to avoid the rules Of
the organization; others were expelled
for violating tn. rules
The demand Of the managers includes
the reinstatiHg Of one man whose viola
tons Of the union rules had nothing to
do with the theater situation. This
clearly indicates that the managers are
trying to place an impossible PROPOSE
ton before the musicians and actually
do dictate to them how their laws
should be applied. The union has not
refused to reInstate the men that have
violated its laws or deserted Il, but
claims IL must be done In accordance
with the laws of the organization. Do
ing otherwise would place a premium on

Underlying II all IS the Increase In

reasonable enough. The local union =
