ployes were locked out for refusal ia
obey the safety commissions button
order.
Insist On Buttons.
Union leaders, on the other hand,
were reported TO look with disfavor
on any settlement that would not
permit of the wearing of union but
tons, and the recognized right to
maintain q union.
Refusal of the safety commission
to rescind It's order and the apparent
inability of the traction company
and its former employees to reach an
agreement, probably will result in
early action by the washington gov
eminent in the opinion Of labor
leaders.
The following letter. sent by Sec
rotary Wilson to the executive COM
mittee representing the union men,
was promptly agreed to and post
poned, at least temporarily, the
threatened general sympathetic
strike:
THE Presidents mediation COM
mission has been gathering informa-
ton relative to the street car strike
in the twin cities, and the labor un-
rest resulting therefrom. 1t will not
be able to complete the work until
after 1t has reported to the President.
May we not, therefore, ask that
the trades and labor assembly and
the unions affiliated with it uncon-
ditionally withdraw the sympathetic
strike order they have had in con-
temptation so that the commission
may handle the street car problem
unhampered by the threat Of SYM
pathetic strike in other trades and
industries ?"

.KOSITZKY and
ROAD BOARD IN
CLASH ON Cash
Auditor Says Too Much
Money Paid With Too
Little Road Work

Bismarck, N. D.. Dec. 2O.-Friction
between the state auditing board
and the North Dakota highway COM
mission eliminated Wednesday in a
letter from State Auditor Karl
KositzlSy to j. w. Bliss, state
engineer and secretary of the high
way commission, in which the state
auditor calls attention to the fact
that since March /, 1917, there has
been paid out of the highway fund
$S0,303.50, OF which $214.12 has been
paid for road work, and $30,0S9.3S
for salaries and travelling expenses.
He calls attention to the fact that
the state highway commission has
on its payroll thirty people drawing
nearly $4,000 per month in salaries
and travelling expenses, and advises
that as member of the auditing
board, he is opposed to the expendi-
ture of the highway fund in this
way, "and shall vote against paying
said claims after Jan. / 1918. 1t is
my honest belief that the people of
the state expect roads to be built
out Of dirt and not out OF paper"
concludes the state auditor
