Union to Help
Break Outlaw
Truck Strike
Leaders Warn Teamsters and
Chauffeurs to Settle With
Employers Before Monday
to Retain Organization
Bad Faith Laid to Men
Drivers Hired to Fill Jobs
May Be Taken Into Lo-
Gals to Uph old Pact

II the striking teamsters and
chauffeurs of the United States Truck
ing Company, who walked out Thurs
day morning in what is recognized as
an outlaw strike by their leaders, do
not find basis upon which they can
settle their difficulties with their en-
ployers before Monday, there is every
indication that their action will lead
to breaking up of their local unions.
The union leaders yesterday, in con-
terence with officials of the United
States Trucking Company, declared that
# their men did not return to work
they would back up the trucking or
ganlzation by unionizing all strike
breakers that We're hired to replace
them.
Basis of Arbitration
The trucking officials refuse to
arbitrate with any except the union
leaders, with whom their agreements
have been made, which means that the
men cannot advance a counter PROPOSE
tlon, but must accept the terms
previously signed between the company
and the union. Moreover, the trucking
officials declare that they will operate
on Monday, and have placed advertise
newspapers.
The work of replacement began yes
terday when about forty trucks were
operated by new drivers
According to Edmund R. Lowe. gen
eral manager of the United States
Trucking Company, the reduction ir
wages which was put into effect last
week, and which precipitated the strike
was proposition made by the team
sters themselves, and agreed to by
them
The company, Mr.. Lowe said. held 9
contract, provided with a thirty-day
notice Of termination, calling for a ten
hour day at S35 a week for chauffeurs
and S31 for teamsters. On May no
tice was given on this contract, anc
after the first OF June negotiations
were begun with the men. The truck
ing concern asked the men to give
them tenhour day. The men refused
TO grant this, and instead declared that
they would take 81 a week cut ir
wages. This agreement was signed BY
ten men representing the union and by
the officials of the company.
