REMINGTON
NACH|N|STS
STRIKE TODAY
FOLLOWING FAILURE TO GET
CONSIDERATION OF DEMANDS
-OVER 10000 MUNITloN WORK
ERS INVOLVED IN TROUBLE.

Bridgeport, Conn, July 1S.-Unless
there are some unexpected develop
ments in the industrial situation in
Bridgeport within the next thirty-siX
hours, machinists in the employ OF
the Remington Arms and Ammunition
Company will go on strike Monday.
Announcement that the strike call
would be issued for that time, was
made today by j. j. Kepler, interna-
tional vice president of the machin-
lists union, after he had made an un-
successful attempt to place before
Major W. w. Penfeld, works manager
of the company, the demands formu-
lated last night at a strike meeting
of the machinists.
Mr.. Keppler said representatives of
the union we're considering ways and
means of having mechanics in other
manufacturing communities of New
England strike in sympathy,
Upwards of 10000 Involved
Frank Jennings, one of the machin-
ist unions vice presidents, said the
proposed strike would throw out of
employment between 10000 and 10000
workers in Bridgeport, including ma
chinists in twenty plants being oper-
ated by sub-contractors for the Rem
ington company. Vincent DeFalco, in
ternational organizer of the hod-car-
riers' union, stated if the machinists
walk out the hod carriers will follow
them. Such a move would in turn in
volye the bricklayers engaged on the
new buildings. The drop forgers, en-
gagged in the manufacture Of bayonets,
are also considering what action they
would take.
Efforts were being made today to
organize those workers who do not
belong to the unions. Twenty-three
heads of international labor organiza-
tions were in the city according to the
officials of the machinists.
Keep Strangers Away.
Exceptional measures were taken to-
day at the Remington plant to keep
strangers from the enclosure.
Mr.. Keppler said, a general strike of
all the machinists in Bridgeport would
not be called unless it was absolutely
necessary"
1--WE do not want the public" he
continued, "to get the idea we are war
ring on the munitions plants by reason
of peace propaganda. There is as much
to that as there was to the expressed
belief that German influences were be
hind the movement"

WORLDS GEM MARKET
War in Europe Increases Importation
of Precious Stones.

New York, Dec 1.-THE increase
in importations of precious stones at
the port of New York during the last
few months is regarded by customs
officials and American importers as
remarkable According to report
filed yesterday by Examiner William
b. Treadwell with Appraiser of the
Port Sague, precious stone imports
during November, just ended, were
valued at S5,O56,752, about I'VE times
the value of the stones imported here
in the same month a year ago For
November. 1914, imports of precious
stones were valued at S1,0S9,231 and
for the same month in 1918 at but
s932,593 Judging by the figures for
last month there viii be no shortage
for the holiday trade on account of
the war.
Conditions brought about by the
war are forcing many private owners
of valuable gems to dispose of their
holdings to American importers.
while the regular dealers abroad find
the United States the sole outlet for
such stocks as they possess.
