Lee n Hart. general secretary-treas-
urer OF the international Alliance of
Stage Employees. in a letter to an Off
cial OF the Detroit Union, notifies him
that the international organization has
withdrawn its support from that local
union, which has been on strike against
the Detroit theaters for the past six
years. The grounds upon which the
parent body withdraws its support is
that II has discovered the original
cause Of the strike Of the union was
insufficient TO warrant the international
union in demanding the reinstatement
Of the members who went out at that
time. II is understood that a new union
will be formed of those who were called
out by the international about year
ago in sympathy with the original
strikers and those OF the present en-
ployes who can qualify. II is also un-
derstood that the local managers have
indicated their willingness TO treat
with such q body. In this manner il is
expected that those called out by the
international will be reinstated. but the
original strikers, who are claimed to
have been wrong, Will be dropped from
the membership in the international
body.
