TO BREAK HAT STRIKE
MANUFACTURER TO OPEN
SHOPS FEBRUARY 8.
If Men Refuse to Return to Benches
Non-Union Makers Will
Be Employed.

SOUTH NORWALK. Conn.,. Januar,
30.-At the meeting of the Associated Ha'
Manufacturers yesterday in New York
the sixty-five members represented sew
enty-five factories. employing 10000 tc
$1,000 people. These representatives
unanimously agreed to open. or attempt
to open. their plants Tuesday, February
9. BY this action the manufacturers dc
not deviate in any degree from their origi-
nal stand. The manufacturers will get
ready for manufacturing on the date in
question. and If the strikers do not &C
back to their benches any hatters the
manufacturers can secure will be put on
everything to be run "open shop"
The action of the manufacturers was
received here with surprise. because il
was considered more probable that action
would be deferred. Members of the union
express just as strongly as ever the be-
lief that it would be suicidal to unionisn1
in hatmaking for them to recede from the
position they have taken.
Thus far the strike has been one Of the
most peaceful in the history of labor trol-
bles and has been absolutely without dis
order. The outcome Of the attempt of the
manufacturers to reopen before the diff
Guilty Is adjusted is therefore looked for
ward to with interest The hatters have
been receiving many tenders Of financial
assistance from other lines of trade.
At the Crofut & Knapp plant today
orders were still being shipped out, the
company having had large stock manu-
featured ahead. as has been well known
At the shops In Danbury there is un-
official confirmation of the reported action
of the meeting of the hat manufacturers

ecutive board Of the association would is
