act as bakers organized and elected a
walking delegate who notified the coun-

that his fellows would not knead the
aims house bread until their names were
put on the payroll with the attendants
and other employees.
The delegate explained to the commit

ate at the seashore and in the mountains,
but remain at their duties in the bake
shop and work faithfully for the county.
The committees reply to the strikers
