Again under date Of February -,
1920. Marshall writes to Lowell. at
Omaha, Neb., in part as follows:
We have received the copies and
clippings of the Journal and trust
that you will send as these every
chance you get. We will STATE that
the clippings of the matters of the
Executive Board are really all that We
need so that in the future you can
cut them rs you did this time.

1t is customary for the Brewery
Workers international Union to print
the minutes Of the Proceedings of
the International Executive Boards
sessions in its Official Journal, SO the
membership may keep posted regard
ing the activities of the general ar
ganization.
The above reference is made by
MarhSall when thanking Lowell for
the clippings, etc. The Dear Client
is led to believe that the information
he gets comes direct through an
operative stationed at the Cincinnati
headquarters.
Now as to the contemplated strike
on July 1st, which evidently did not
materialize, and needless to say That
there was no general demand eon-
templated for h igher wages in the
Mills in June, 1919; but nevertheless
the foregoing had its desired effect,
the operatives arrived on the scene
and began plying their trade in the
mills, and as letter written TO
Operative Lowell by Marshall under
date Of August Is, 1919, indicates, and
which reads as follows:
August Is, 1919.
Mr.. p. G. Powell,
p. o. Box No. l0l,
Salina, Kansas.
Dear Sir:
We received your report of the 10th
inst. enclosing your pay envelope,
and we were already aware that they
had your name as d. Lowell, and We
have charged you with the $1,000
you received.
Niece will be in Salina the FIRST
of this week, and we ask that you see
that he ge.s into the Union as soon
as possible. We do not know which
Mill he will be assigned to, but 1t will
either be the Lee Mill or the Robinson
Mill.
For your information we are en-
closing a list of names of the em-
ployees of your mill, so that you may
get the names correct, and we give
YOU instructions now that as soon as
POSSIBLE we desire to know which ones
efthese men are union men and which
are non-union men. Kindly do not
forget this
