cipitatcd by the action of thc Cloak,
Suit and Skirt Manufacturers Protcc-
tive Association in attempting to re-
lnstatc piece work and lcngthcn work
ing hours in violation Of an agreement
with the union, was ended last night.
Members of the unions strike com
mittce, meeting in Bryant Hall, voted
amid cheers to accept the offer of the
manufacturers for return Of the
workers TO their jobs under all the
terms of the agreement. which was sus-
tanned throughout in the permanent in
junction decision against the employ
crs handed down by Justice Robert T.
Wagner. The settlement is Il complete
victory for the strikers.
Although the manufacturers are APP
pcaing from Justice Wagners dcc-
sion, Samuel Untcrmycr, of counsel for
the union, announced that he had been
assured by Max d. Stcuer, of the as
sociation's COUNSEL that no attempt
would be made by the manufacturers

existing agreement without the we'll
intentioned' aid Of Secretary Of Com
merce Hoover and Secretary of Labor
Daivs, who are planning Federal in
Ncstigation Of the industry.'
Benjamin Schlcsingcr, president OF
the union. last night issued state
ment, III which he said:
"The victory of the workers is due
not only to the justice Of their cause
and to the splendid spirit of loyalty
and determination with which they
conducted the struggle, but also. and
to q very large measure, to the support
OF the public and to the fair and sym
pathetic attitude Of the press. 1t is 4
great pleasure TO me to take this oc-
casion in behalf Of the many thou
sands Of striking workers in the cloak
industry to extend our hearty thanks
to the public. and particularly to the
gentlemen of the press"
It is believed that the proceedings in
connection with the "denaturcd" in
junction Of the American Cloak. Suit
and Skirt Manufacture Association
against the union Will be dismissed
in view of the fact that the settlement
leaves no ground whatever for con-
tilfuiNr them.
