Matter Not Settled.

A committee representing the Lake
County Trades and Labor Council
waited on the management of the Or
pheum theater last Thursday evening
to intervene in behalf of the local
stage employees, whose grievance is
that out-of-town stage employees who
are not members of any representative
labor organization are given prece-
dence for employment over the stage
hands in Hammond. The management
takes the stand that Its stage employees
while not members of the local union,
are union employees and that they carry
card. The controversy has not yet
been settled.
