strikers and those who did not strike alike remaining out Agent Knight in statement issued Wednesday declared that the plant would operate on the opel shop plan and that none of the help would be compelled to join the union to work at the plant. The officers of the union took up this statement Wednes- day, claiming that there had been no statement issued by them to the effect that employees of the Quidnick- Windham plant must join the union. It was thougllt--that Agent Knight had gained his impression from the situation exist ing at the American Thread Company where the members of the Carders' union refused to work with the ten radical non-union men and women.
 The situation at the American Thread company plant is reaching an acute stage, as the non-producing card room has already affected several departments which were partially or wholly closed during Thursday. The strikers by pro- longing the strike for another week will force the plant to cease operations as far as the manufacturing plant is con. earned. so the plant would close down completely.
 , The members of the union met at Union hall Thursday afternoon where l they. were addressed by Polish speak ing organizer and an American organ | izer, but results of the meeting were kept secret by the union employees.
