/ Packers Persist
In Refusing All
Mediation Offers
ignore Plea of Davis and
Advancing Meat Prices;
Kosher Inspectors and
Cutters Join i'm Strike

Determination of the Big Five
packers to refuse to arbitrate with
striking employees was voiced yester-
day by W. II. Noyes, chairman of the
Slaughterers Association. This decision
was made "notwiths standing the great
ly increased cost Of meat to the New
York public and the request for arbi
tration made by Secretary of Labor
Davis according to the strike leaders.
The packers did not issue any formal
defense Of this position. All that Mr.
Noyes said was
There is nothing to arbitrate"
Meanwhile the strikers made another
gam IN strength when the kosher
cutters and inspectors employed in the
local packing plants joined the strike,
Commenting on this the Labor Bureau,
representing the strikers, issued the
following statement:
THE growing resentment of Jews
throughout the city against the acts of
the Big Five subsidiaries, actively
voiced by Jewish societies and organi-
zatlons, brought such pressure upon
these men that they quit to-day in sup
port of the striking meat cutters and
butcher workmen Their walkout
means Il complete shutdown on what
little cutting of this kind was being
done by strikebreakers."
In addition to the kosher cutters it
was reported by the Labor Bureau tha
all the local livestock handlers, the
entire office force of Joseph Stern &
Sons, a Morris & Co. subsidiary, and
the night shipping clerks OF the New
lork Butchers Dressed Meat Com
pany, an Armour concern, walked out
during the morning in support of the

Paralyze Island; Attacks
Child Labor, Beet Fields

From The Tribumo'S Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, Dec. 19.-The hear
ing before the Senate Finance Com
mittee to-day on the sugar schedule
brought forth q protest against such an
increase in the sugar tariff as would
'paralyze Cuba by Horatio s. Rubens.
of New York chairman of the Amer
lean Committee on Cuban Emergency.
Mr. Rubens made a plea for help to
Cuba. At the same time he assailed
the beet sugar industry of this country
tor employing child labor. Senator
Smoot, OF Utah, leading member Of
the Finance Committee, came to the
support OF the beet sugar interests
Mr.. Rubens opposed the increase of
oo per cent IN the tariff on Cuban raw
sugar which is provided for in the
present emergency tariff act and in
the fordney bill. In an effort to prove
the beet sugar industry in this coun
try IS not entitled TO such protection
Mr.. Rubens charged that the beet sugar
industry is exploiting the labor of chill
eren IN the beet fields of Colorado,
Michigan and other states. Senator
Smoot denied that children were en-
pioyed IN way to injure them in the
beet fields. He said some Of them made
80 day, that 1t was "a godsend to the
children and gave them something
to do instead Of running the streets
MI Rubens quoted from Official re-
ports to show that children under ten
and even eight years old worked in
the Colorado beet fields. that continual
stooping and lifting caused postural
de1ormI1les and malpositions in 70 per
cent OF these children" that they
were far behind iii school and their
long work hours of sometimes eleven
hours day were injurious He also
SAID the beet sugar crops depended
largely on the labor of Mexican peons,
Japanese and Russian aliens and the
chI!cron of alien laborers.
Mr. Rubens declared the American
Sugar Refining Company was a large
stockholder in the beet supar indrs+ -.
of the West
He went on to say there was SITE

rrntermver Applauds Decision

Samuel Untermyer asserted last
night that the decision of the Supreme
Court dealt with one of numerous
combinations which were operating to
sustain prices at abnormal levels. The
decision, he prophesied. would make 1t
possible to obtain convictions against
many Of them.
"There are hundreds of these con-
spiracies involving thousands of mer-
chants operating all over the country,
said Mr.. Untermyer, adding to the
cost of living in almost every line, and
new ones are being formed almost
daily.
"This decision clears the way for the
conviction of hundreds of firms and
corporations in the building industry
that are already under indictment OF
on our list, of which Indictment or
the cement trust are the chief
offenders"
