Both organizations are moved by

so ominous crisis as here in Pater-

The mill owners are keeping quiet.
content to let the labor factions cut
each others throat, if they want to,
since the power of the strikers will
be weakened, no matter what the out
come of their internecine strife.
AS an offset to the A. r. Of L.
demonstra tion, the 7. w. w. will
hold two meetings tonight.
The fight hinges, however, on the
gathering at the armory, which has
capacity of ten thousand. What
these ten thousand strikers do in re-
gard to John Golden's proposal for
the A. f. of L. intermediation will
probably decide the destiny of the
strike.
James Matthews. local secretary Of
the federation, has issued state-
ment, saying:
Leaders of the |. w. w. have
been making false statements about
the A. F.. of l.. and Its members,
even giong so far as to attack their
personal characters.
"If the strikers are willing TO en-
! list under our banner, we will do all
in our power to bring about satis-
factory settlement of the present
trouble 1t is not our intention to
have the people go back to work and
take up their grievances afterward.
A. r. of L. Can Settle War;
I'VE believe 1t will be possible TO
get concessions from the manufac-
| turers and adjust grievances, and We
believe the majority Of the manufac-
turers are willing to treat with the
legitimate labor movement. Our in
tentions are to try to bring about a
permanent settlement of the trouble. "
