FACTORY PLAN
WELL UNDER WAY
INDoRsEs COOPERATIVE GAR.
MENT PLANT IDEA.
Money Advanced for Preliminary
Work - Many individuals Offer to
Take Blocks Of Stock and 1t Is
Proposed to Raise About $4,000 -
Market for Products Seems Assured.

At Wednesday nights meeting Of
the Trades and Labor Assembly, the
eecutive board made favorable
report upon the matter of establish
ing a cooperative garment factory.
The board believes that such con-
Germ would be a success If properly
handled and an expert placed in con-
troll. Already a number Of concerns
have signifed their willingness to
handle the product of the proposed
factory, and there is no doubt in the
minds Of those fostering the plan
that a ready market will be found for
this disposal of all garments manu-
featured. In it's report, the commit
tee suggested numerous plans for
financing the venture, and after "a
lengthy discussion the project as pre-
sented by the executive board was
Endorsed by the. assembly and a sum
Of money placed at the disposal of the
board for preliminary expenses.
Many individuals have offered to
take blocks Of stock in amounts from
500 up, and it is purposed to raise a
fund Of about $4,000 in this manner.
If the promoters are successful in
their efforts, steps will be taken to in
stall the plant and operations COM
menced. Quarters have been
rendered the board in the business
section Of the city, and machinery and
| other accessories can be obtained on
favorable terms.

Locomotive Engineers

There is a chance that Los Angeles may
not entertain the national convention Of
the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers,
which is scheduled to meet in that city
May II. Difficulty in securing transpor-
tation for delegates east Of the Alleghenies
is assigned as the reason, and Grand Chief
Engineer w. S. Stone says some central
point will probably be selected. The Los
Angeles committee has already gone to
great expense, and the committee has
asked the Chamber of Commerce to try
to induce Chief Stone to change his de-
cision.
Third Assistant Chief Eli Stevens Of the
Brotherhood Of Locomotive Engineers Sc
cured an injunction from Judge Dissete OF
the common pleas court at Cleveland
Ohio, Wednesday, temporarily restraining
Grand Chief Stone or other officers of the
organization from holding the annual con-
vention in Cleveland on May II, or any
other point aside from Los Angeles, Cal.

NO SETTLEMENT
Stonecutters Awaiting Word from In
ternational Officers.

Contrary to reports in circulation,
nothing has been done locally look
ing to a settlement of the difficulty
between the firm of Jones & Hartley
and the Stonecutters' union. The Of
f1cials of the union have forwarded a
statement of the case to the officials
of the international union and are
awaiting a reply. The trouble origi-
mated over the use Of machinery in
the yards OF the firm. The stonecut-
ters are anxious to conf troll machinery
used in their work, and twas thought
by members of the union that, in this
case at least. this had been provided
for. Owing to the peculiar nature
of the trouble, and the fact that the
same condition does or will confront
the union in practically all parts Of
| the country, it was thought best to
| submit the whole matter to the inter-
national officers.
It is thought the members Of the
local union may be ordered back to
work and the question referred to the
coming convention of the union in
May, when it, might be possible to
make national arrangement with the
employers.

Negotiations are pending between the of

the members Of the Amalgamated Painters

may result in solution Of the whole
question. It is said the New Workers will
join the st. Paul union of the Brother
hood of Painters, and if they do so con-
