Decision to Strike
Union Leaders Believe Re-

Out; Claim 1t Will Spread

The likelihood of strike of garment
workers in New York, strike which
would extend to Chicago, Cleveland,
Philadelphia and other garment manu-
featuring centers, grew stronger yes
tcrday with the closing of the polls on
the strike referendum.
At the headquarters Of the Interna-
tional Ladies' Garment Workers Union
it was said that almost every garment
worker in the greater New York dis
trict had gone to the polls and that this
heavy vote indicated an overwhelming
decision to go on strike rather than
return to the piecework system de-
manded by the Cloak, Suit and Skirt
Manufacturers Protective Association.
Although it was said complete re-
turns would not be ready until Thurs
day or Friday, James Beller, of the
joint executive board of the Cloak
makers Union, declared he believed the
count would show that more than
$4,000 were in favor of striking, and

Blacky Finds Other Signs
BY Thornton W. Burgess
A single fact mag fail to prove you
either right or aDrong;
Confirm 1T aeith another and your
proof sOill then be strong.
-Blacky the Grow.

After his discovery that Old Mother
Nature had wrapped all the ears OF corn
In extra thick husks Blacky the Crow
had no doubt in his own mind tnat
Johnny Chuck and Jerry Muskrat and
PADDY the Beaver and the Quacks
were quite right in their feeling that
the coming winter would be long,
hard and cold. But Blacky long ago
learned that it isn't wise or wholly
safe to depend altogether on one
thing.
"Old Mother Nature never does
things by halves" thought Blacky, as
he sat on fence post on the Green
Meadows, thinking over his discovery
of the thick husks on the corn. "She
wouldn't take care to protect the corn
that way and not do as much for
other things. There must be other

you never did?"
Blacky looked down. Peeping up
at him from the brown grass were
two bright little eyes. Hello, Danny

"I haven't seen you for a long time
I've looked for you several times
lately"

Danny meant. When Blacky goes

Danny knew this. "I've had my
