35,354 PACKERS VOTE
fAvORING WALK OUT
Conference of Executives And
Reports Of Allied Crafts
Due Next Week

Chicago, Ill, Oct. 2l.-(By The As
sociated Press)-Completion Of the
strike vote in the packing industry
taken by the amalgamated meat cut
ters and butcherworkmen. was an
nounced today by C. j. Hayes, presi-
dent He said the poll stood 35,354 yes
and $3.50 no.
A conference of executive officers
and reports of allied crafts vii be
held here next week. Mr.. Hayes said.
A strike of packing house employees at
the John Morrell company plant at
Ottumwa. Iowa, which began this
week, Hayes said, was the most i'm
portant strike in the industry, since
the war. He reported 1000 men out
This was the second time within = few
months that the members of the
butcher workers union, have voted t.
strike. Last summer plans for a walk
out virtually were complete when Sec
tetary Davis called representatives of
the packers and of the employees into
where the differences were settled
amicably, the packers agreeing to ex-
tend the Alschuler war time agree
ment another six months and the men
accepting a wage cut. The extension
of this agreement recently expired.
No comment from representatives of
the packing interests was forthcoming.
The attitude of little fear of the conse-
quences of the strike ballot was ex-
pressed by representative of one OF
the big five concerns. He said the bal
lot was not even representative of the
union employees and that the total of
3s,S44 votes announced by MIR. Hayes
was only a small minority of all work
ers.
The strike ballot did not specify
strike in protest against any one thing
simply asking the employees to say
whether they authorized their officers
to call a strike at any time they
thought it advisable to protect the in
terests of the men.

General Pilsndski is expected in

Poland promised France impor-
tant economic concessions, notably
oil, in exchange for aid against
Russia last year. France will keep
Poland in a position to make good
these pledges. France will help
Poland, not with men, but with
war materials and brains. Po-
lands general staff is lacking in
brains, but her man-power is plac-
ed at 100000. Rumania's effec-
tives total 100000 and its army is
far superior to that of Poland in
