Mike was making circles about

composure that she had to collar
him and scold him before he would

"vACT|ON|STS"
To RETURN
Resolution Adopted at Meet
ing of Former Lehigh Val
ley Railroad Workers.

A resolution passed at a meeting OF
I railroad "~vacationists" in Grand View
yesterday will probably result In all
she vacatiOnists who walked out In
april of this year returning to work
! new men. A meeting of the local
.-anch American Railroad workers
) ASSOCIATION was held this morning 10
hike action on the resolution and in
! ksmuch as the v~acationists have been
willing to work with the majority
since the walkout, 1t Is likely that
the men will return to work. The
5 Iehigh Valley railroad issued q
taking the "vacationists" back as new
men, which means that their seniority
flights will not be restored.
The resolution adopted at yester-
days meeting is as follows:
Grand View Hall, Sept. 10, 1920
sTo All Concerned:
This is to certify that the men
now out on vacation this date from
the Leh!gh Valley railroad at Perth
Amboy and vicinity are authorized
/. by majority vote at a regular meet
ing held in this hall Sunday after
/. noon this date to carry out The IT,
! structions Of their committee to re-
turn to work on the Lehigh Valley
/, railroad. This revokes their pledge
made to the body that they would
9 stand until April I, 1921.
GEORGE H. EVANS,
Chairman"
The railroad men walked out
throughout the country early In
April of this year and since that
time have been banded together in
strong manner ready to do as the
majority requested. The action al
the Grand View meeting yesterday
will in all probability result in the
return of all the men to work al
though a communication from the
Lehigh Valley railroad this morning
states that the men return to their
positions without their seniority
rights, coming as new men. The
: statement follows:
1.-THE Lehigh Valley denied this
morning printed reports in New
York newspapers to the effect that
the outlaw strikers at Jersey City
, and Perth Amboy had been restored
to their old positions with full sem
iority rights, etc. A number of the
strikers have applied for positions as
new men, 1t was said, but none have
been employed at Jersey City and
only four at Perth Amboy. the lat
ter re-entered the railroad service
without any of their seniority
rights"

.DAIRYMEN ARE TO
RUN COOPERATIVE
CONDENSAR|ES

Tuesday morning the Snohomish
County Dairymen's Association met
in the Everett Theater to discuss
Cooperative Condenseries. Dairy
men from all over the county were
at the meeting, filling the largest
theater in the city to overflowing.
They voted $3.50, 100000 in bonds
for the purchase of condenseries.
Fifteen cents per hundred weight of
milk from each farmer who belongs
to the Dairymen's Association,
whether he sells to the county con-
denseries or to the Seattle conden-
series, will redeem these bonds and
the interest in five years, and each
man will begin Immediately to pay
his 8 cents per hundred weight.
The bonds are issued for May 1st.
The Arlington condensery is being
built now, and the Snohomish con-
densery can be running in thirty
days time. Five milk routes around
Stanwood have been cut off by the
Carnation Milk company, and the
milk supply is being taken care of
now by the Arlington Creamery.
Some of the Dairymen stated that
Cooperative Condenseries will be
put on throughout the State. Just as
soon as one county is organized,
they are going to organize others.
One of the dairymen said that the
only fear they have now is that
the Carnation Milk Go. may go
broke after the Cooperative Con-
denseries are started.
The Dairymen must have a fair
legislature to make laws to protect
and aid these condenseries and
make it possible to operate them.
Therefore, they recognize the Triple
Alliance as the organization through
which they will get these laws, and
by working for and with the Triple
Alliance they will help get legisla-
tion for all the nroducprS
