SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. z. -
Secretary of Labor Wilsonwill de-
cline to consider the question OF
union recognition in his efforts to
settle the threatened general
strike of electrical workers en-
ployed by the Pacific Telephone &
Telegraph company, it was stated
authoritatively today.
The secretary will also seek to
evade action leading to comman-
deering of the company's plant by
the government.
Secretary Wilson and his party
of federal mediators will arrive
here tonight or tomorrow morning
and will begin Immediately an in
)vestigation of the whole telephone
situation. While Werner z. Reed,
federal mediator, who has been
attempting to settle the telephone
trouble, would make no statement,
1t was declared on good authority
today that he has received an out
line of the progress Secretary Wiz
son will try to work out.
1t is said the secretary will
stand for the graduating scale OF
wage increases for electrical work
ers of from 60 to 70 cents a day
and will also ask for an increase
for the telephone operators.
On the question of recognizing
the union of telephone girls, II
is understood Wilson will an
nounce that this question should
play no part in the adjustment
He is expected to declare that be-
cause Of the war crisis union diff
ferences should be forgotten.
Working conditions will be in
vestigated and 1t is probable that
some members Of the federal me-
diation commission will be sent
to the Northwest to adjust the
strike troubles there.
Werner z. Reed may 60 to Seat
tie and Tacoma, 1t was rumored
today.
