New York Walters
Threaten to Strike
On Election Night

NEW YORK, Sept. IA general
strike of walters and cooks that will
paralyze every flrst-class restaurant
and hotel in this city at the opening of
the winter season is the latest plan OF
the International Hotel Workers union.
A statement by one of the local union
officials states:
Election night has been practically
decided upon as the psychological mo-
ment that will help to bring home to
the employers more forcefully than
ever the justice of the mems demands.
No more strikes in the dull season like
the last one, is the slogan. Strike when
business is at it's flood and strike all
over the city. Unless the individual
proprietors reach an understanding
with the organization of the hotel
workers within the next few weeks the
men will walk out on election night and
prevent the restaurants from feeding
the hungry throngs. With the horse
show week and the opening of the
opera season following closely, the men
will have an unusual advantave over
the proprietors." aPN

DIR. Claude Smith, city chemist and
bacteriologist. declares that the poultry
ordinance introduced at the last meeting
OF council is necessary to protect the
public health, and he denies that it is
unreasonable.
Retail grocers and produce men have
announced their intention of going be-
fore the ordinance committee of council
and opposing the ordinance.
DR.. Smith drew the ordinance, the
board Of health approved it, and Alder
man Van Dyke introduced it in council
at the boards request. 1t was referred
t. the ordinance committee. Alderman
Van Dyke says he was absent when
the board of health discussed the ordi-
nance, and that he introduced il with
out reading it carefully. He now is
inclined to think it too drastic, and
win not favor its enactment without
considerable modification.
WHAT DIR. SMITH SAYS.
Dr. Smith says:
THE ordinance simply undertakes to
regulate poultry slaughter houses like
cattle slaughter houses are regulated.
when the city proposed to inspect
cattle slaughter houses, or abattoirs,
the butchers raised a howl of protest,
claiming that the ordinance would
force the little men out of business.
Now they are glad the ordinance was
enacted. because it enables them to get
far better grade of meat.
1.-The retailers and produce men are
making the same sort of kick the butch
ers made, but if the ordinance is en-
acted they will soon see it's benefits and
will be glad it was enacted.
THE city at the present time has
no restrictions on poultry slaughter
houses. Some of them are very I'M
clean. We have found poultry on sale
that was foul smelling and dangerous.
Last Christmas many people bought
turkeys that smelled so badly when
