A $4,000 cooperative ice company

The new ice company is fostered by

purchase stock in the new company as
will union members. Under the plan

planned to sell the stock for $40 per
share plus so cents for organization

'1n organizing this company it is
not the plan of the organizers to try
to drive any ice concern now doing
business in the city out of The run
ming" said j. o. Stevic, president of
the Industrial council. in discussing
the plans for the new company this
morning. I'VE are not going into the
Lrice-cutting business. On +he con-
trary, we expect to send out our
wagons in direct competition with the
wagons of rEe on1panies now doing
business, and we will sell our zee at the
prices set by the two companies now
in business. The benefits of belong
ing to the now cooperative company
will come rom the dividends which
will be declared as often as he funds
we may take in allow"
According to Stevic the formation
of the new company dates back to
the beginning of the trouble between
Robert Billiard and the teamsters'
union. Stevic said that the men were
given their choice between their jobs
and belonging to the union. The men
chose the union, and were strongly
in favor of general sympathetic
strike to bring the Mutual company
to terms.
1t was finally decided by the In
dustrial council that nothing could be
gained by calling sympathetic
strike, SO the proposition of forming
new ice company was suggested as
substitute. The idea took. and at
the meeting of the Industrial council
Wednesday night the announcement
was made that the new company was
in a position to start selling stock.
