to meet at $3.50 this morning with tho
general strike conference committee
hoped to induce the committee to
recommend sympathetic strike affect
ing all but $4,000 striking shipyard
workers out of $1,000 men involved,

Little hope was entertained by
many of the union delegates that the
general strike could be prolonged
throughout the day. Desertions in
the striking ranks came fast yester-
day despite the committees decision
to continue the walkout.
= All except about 400 street car men
returned to work. Teamsters, auto
mobile bus and taxicab drivers, garb-
age collectors, four theatrical em-
ployes' unions, the BARRIERS and sever
al other labor organizations voted to
resume work this morning. Restau-
rants were still badly crippled
through the decision Of cooks and
walters to remain out, and the city's
milk supply continued to be centered
in a number of central depots.
Schools were to reopen this morn
ing. Moving picture houses and the
aters were preparing to resume busi-
ness.
