The last contract existing between

the effect that either aide desiring q
change Of contract was to give notice
of such change at least sixty days in
advance, so that arrangements for n
new contract couid be entered into be-
tore ON old agreement expired.
ON March . the Publishers Asso
ciation was notified OF the unions lie
sire FEY change Of the agreement,
which communication was promntiw
acknowledged. This was followed
within a short time by copy of new
agreement as desired by the union,
which contained a request for an in
creased wage scale and which WAS also
duly ackaowi edged. since this time
the union has been making repeated
efforts to get into conference with the
Publishers' Association, but were ur-

Met Two Days Before Expiration
Having been unable to arrange a
conference with the publishers up to
the last week in May, and realizing
that the agreement would expire on
Mas 81. a special meeting o? the union
was called fer Sunday, May %, where
upon the publishers agreed to, and did
meet the union on Friday, May 27, and
fatty refused to consider their de-
mands Tor the increased wage.
"The committee from the union en-
deavored to arrange meeting with
the publishers, but were informed that
none could be held until Thursday aft
ernoon, June Q, which would be after
the expiration OF the old contract, the
publishers stating that most Of their
committee had left the city, and that
it would be impossible for them to
meet before that time. Upon the
unions insistence, however, meeting
was arranged for Tuesday, May 81.
"At this meeting the representatives
of the union again appealed to 20 into
ali immediate conference on wage in
crease-that being the only question
o. dispute-the general conditions
being mutually acceptable. The pub
fishers refused to consider any in
crease and demanded arbitration on the
matter.
"The demand for an increase in
wages is only to bring the newspaper
wages up so the average being paid in
commercial engraving establishments,
where conditions are much more de-
sirable for the workers, they being al
lowed off on Saturday afternoons, holi-

though the company was not party to
