Of LONG REPORT.
BOARD OF ARBITRATION
FINDS JUSTICE IN De
MANDS MADE

Oklahoma City Sept 29--Afler an
extended investigation of the matters
at issue in the strike Of employees ol
theatres in this city and of actors, the
state board OF arbitration and concili-
alton has made public It's findings.
The findings are not binding upon the
parties TO the strike. however and
their chief value is in the judicial
character of the proceedings and the
effect that this award may have in
arguing for settlement.
The board finds that the stage en-
p,oyes, musicians and operators Of
picture machines have justice on their
side The findings as to the actors
are samewhat less definite in that
there is no recommendation Of a
closed shop as in the other cases. The
board says
htIOHlilSUudAltOo VI bOdfu.
we recommend that The stage en-
ployes and local managers enter into
a contract embracing the following
points. That nothing but union stage
employees be employed in the city in
heatres controlled by the ABOVE man
ayers; that the rate OF wages be in
creased 81 per week, in accordance
with the demand Of the stage en-
ployes at the time Of the strike which
makes the rate Of wages as follows.
Master carpenters $2l per week prop
crty managers SIS per week. assist
ant carpenters SIS per week, the said
weeks work to consist OF seven days
We further recommend that the
hours OF work be so arranged by the
managers that il will be unnecessary
for stage employees 10 report before

"As to The proposition of theatre
managers using nothing but members
. fthc White Rat union, the botrd does
not feel qualified, at this time, to
pass Judgment upon this important
Issue by reason of the fact that Okla
homa City is one of a chain of cities
N circuits, which are booked by
foreign concerns or booking agents
1caled outside the state. and we.
therefore, doubt the feasibility of i'm
posing upon the manager in Oklahoma
city this duty. We understand that
the managers have in the past oper
ated with a closed shop in so far as
the local men are concerned, and that
it is possible 10 carry out such a con-
tract with the White Rat Actors

that the matter is questionable and

Ing the rail strike a week ago was

NO betterment in the price schedule
which covered Saturdays very light
run was reported yesterday. a gener-
ally steady market being quoted
throughout the division. In few in
stances there was complaint of a g.
cent lower deal, the mixed grades, ac-
cording to the dealers, being the OBJ
ject of buyers discrimination.
Top yesterday was posted at $1O.45,
duplicating Saturdays high figure.
and bulk of the sales were transacted
at figures between 5000 and $10.s5.
Ten cents was the lowest bid received
by sellers. Average cost yesterday
was s1o.2s against $1,000 Saturday.
Information from outside markets

SOUTH END PAVING.

Those persons, in town and out.
VINO have occasion to use any of the
streets included in the Belmont and
Vernon paving district most certainly
have a grievance in the manner in
which the work in that district is be-
ing handled. The trouble is not alone
in the slowness with which the work
has been prosecuted, but in the fact
that because the entire district was
opened up at one time, access to the
city by the way Of one it's most i'm
portant and most used entrances has
been shut off for weeks. The Bel
mont road carries more traffic to and
from the city than any other single
highway reaching it, and yet 1t is now
impossible to get into the city from
the Belmont road except by threading
a devious way over ground that has
been excavated for paving, and which
is therefore unfit for travel.
Belmont avenue was graveled from
the end Of the pavement out into the
country and was in good condition.
To an onlooker it would appear that
Belmont should not have been disturb
ed until good roadway was provid-
ed elsewhere. This could have been
done by excavating and paving YER
non avenue first. together with the
block on Boulevard to connect with
Belmont. Traffic could then have
been switched to Boulevard and Ver-
non, and there would have been a
dry, hard road into town by one or
the other Of these routes, without any
interruption whatever. As it is, the
entire traffic in that section has been
demoralized, and hundreds of people
have been put to unnecessary incon-
venience.
