of Ultimatum to Go to

Another step in a movement to OBJ

in war munition factories was taken at
the Prince George Hotel yesterday
when J. J. Keppler, first vice-president
of the international Association OF
Machinists, conferred with other Of
ficials preparatory to drafting the
unions ultimatum. which will be pre-
sented to the L. W. Bliss Company, of
Brooklyn, within the week. The de-
mands call for an increase in the mini
mum wage scale from 1612 cents to Al
cents an hour and an eight-hour work

While Keppler was optimistic in his
belief that the Bridgeport difficulties
would be amicably settled by j. j. Nc
Entee, his personal representative, he
intimated that a strike at the Bliss
plant was almost inevitable.
"The question whether or not there
will be a strike at the L. W. Bliss
Company and its subsidiaries Is still
undecided" MIR. Keppler said yester-
dsv. '"It will be settled before the
week is over. If the Bliss people re-
fuse to grant the demands. which we
shall present in a day or so, strike
will be called at once. Our demands
are reasonable, and we certainly mean

II a strike is called it will not only
affect some 1000 employees of the
Bliss Company, half of whom are mem
hers of the machinists' union. but
seven other plants in New York and

to union officials. Other manufactur-

They point out that many of the muni'

that any plant filling United State:
