BAKERS START COOPERATIVE
SHOP.
There Is a move started i'm this city
that will meet with the hearty support
and co-opera tion OF all labor men and will
be approved by everybody.
About two weeks ago the local Of
Hebrew Bakers 3S9 went out on strike
and have remained out to the present
time. with the exception OF one or two
shops that have signed the agreement.
At that time there were Is men out.
There have been several conferences since
:hen with the result that some OF the
shops have signed the agreement and last
evening there was another conference
when the other men were asked TO sign.
Tho men thought that fine ought TO be
Ilaced on those bakers. who have not Yet
signed the agreement and accordingly the
fine was placed upon them and also son
damages asked for the time that the men
have been out.
one OF the best matters that was
cvinced by the strike was the fact that
the bakers are strong enough TO fight the
bakers with a cooperative shop of thcit
own.
Last week shop was bought for $3.50
and will be incorporated as a company for
the purpose Of supplying bread and bread
