Local Draft Boards Begin Calling
striking Workers Who Would Re-
turn TO Work But for Hutcheson's
Refusal

washington. A renewed demand
that William l.. Hutcheson, president
OF the United Brotherhood of Carpen-
>ters and Joiners, send striking ship
yard workers in eastern plants back to
work pending an adjustment Of their
grievances was made by Chairman
Hurley, Of the shipping board.
Earlier in the day Hutches, had
answered previous appeal Nth g.
communication declaring it would be
impossible for him to act until he had
some definite proposition from the
shipping board asto working condi.
tions.
Hutcheson's virtual defiance Of the
shipping board presents situation on
which oicials declined to comment.
Mr.. Hurley's request that the men
be put back to work Immediately car
ried no threat and shipping board Of
ficials would not say what steps they
have in mind.
Reports that local exemption boards
are preparing to call into the military
service striking shipyard workers
within the draft age prompted the
shipping board to send kilograms urg-
Ing that no such action be taken. De-
ferred classification for shipyard work
ers has been put by the provost mar
shal generals office in the charge OF
the industrial service section Of the
shipping board desires that all draft
questions be decided in Washington
President Wilson is known to be
given personal attention to he labor
situation and is following every move
in the shipyard strikes.
In his communication to Hutcheson,
Chairman Hurley points out that the
heads Of the carpenters and joiners'
union were the only ones who declin-
ed to leave adjustment of difficulties
to the shipbuilding labor adjustment
board Even the carpenters locals, de-
spite this attitude, Mr.. Hurley de-
clares, have asked to be included in
the agreement.
