In all probability residents Of OF
taWa will wake up in the morning to
find themselves without street car
service. A motormen's strike similar
to the one that has spread to Chicago
and many other cities throughout the
United States will reach here by 1O:3O

Company cOncede hte demands of the
motormen to raise their wages from
$50 to $9l month for seven-day

Last week the motormen Of the CITY
got together and signed an agreement
asking for So day straight for a
tWelVe-hour day. This would bring
their wages up TO approximately $91 a
month, a raise of more than 80 per
cent over their old pay Living ex-
penscs have rising so much during
the past two years that the motormen
declare il is impossible for them to
exist any longer on their old wage
scale.
One of the motormen in speaking
of the asked for increase said TO re,
porter Of the Free Trader-Journal:
'NOtormcn receive smaller wages than
men in any other branch Of work. and
we are the poorest paid street car
men in the state"

company will join the strike, which
will leave the company, even if it can
