The action is in accordance with a recent resolution Of the United Textile Workers of which has one branch in the Windham Silk company and three at the Thread company plant, the Overs, Sans Silk Workers, and Swift Spool CTS. The demand, presented about two weeks ago, calls for an answer oil or before Monday, Feb. 3; as yet no reply has been received from the off, C;als. It is probable that, in case the demand is refused. there will not be strike, but the workers will leave their machines when the 4S hours a week is up A public mass meeting has been called for February lst In Labor Union hall to give the local unions final instructions in case their demands are not granted. Thomas McMahon and John H. Powers, busi- ness agents of the textile workers, will speak.
