willingly continued the fight indefi-
nitely. There seems to be a profound
desire among the workers to main
tain their union and to work through
their organization for better condi-
tions and new deal for the en-
ployes in the great synthetic fabric
establishments here
A new unit is to be built already
to the mills now working, and before
another year has passed thousands
more workers are to be employed
here. William F. Kelly and staff
of organizers and assistants will re-
main in Elizabethton indefinitely.
Vast Organization Possible
The union proposes to go ahead at
once and build it's own headquarters.
The rayon workers will surely form
the backbone for vast organization
of textile workers in the southland
The striking workers will register for
work on Monday. 1t will be the sec
ond week in June before the plants
can begin full operation again, owing
to the technical nature Of the proc
esses. BY that time it will be known
whether this settlement is victory
for the workers or not.
Those closest to the situation see
in this agreement, however, the most
tremendous gain for the workers that
has taken place in number of years.
The right to organize is the funda
mental need of the textile operative.
This has been conceded here. All
things will follow from this point,
trade union leaders point out.
Collective bargaining has been es-
tablished, not directly nor formally,
but in fact. This is the first time
| that this has happened in a great
southern textile plant in decade,
and this is something that the south
ern manufacturers fought during this
whole strike with an amazing bitter
ness to prevent.
The Bemberg and Glanzstoff execu-
tives may feel that they have forced
| the workers to accept their terms.
If they do the fact is plain that they
never understood what the strike was
all about-and this is probably the
truth. But the union sympathizers
see in the settlement a victory of a
great historic and practical impor-
tance to the movement for raising
the economic standards of the south
ern worker, and above all to the
movement for establishing the right
to organize in this southland.
Terms of Agreement
The following is the settlement
arrived at between committees rep
/ resenting the workers and the new
management:
"The management of the American
Bemberg Corporation and American
Glanzstof Corporation invites its en-
| ployes to return to work on the fol-
lowing basis: All former employees
shall register Immediately. If'an en-
ploye is not reinstated definite rea-
sons will be given such an employe,
and if he feels he is being discrimi-
mated against he may refer his case
to an impartial person to sit on such
eases, who shall be Mr.. E. T. Will
son. The management will not dis

NEW IRON PROCESS
DISPLACES LABOR

Pittsburgh, What will become
of the skilled iron puddler, who is
being displaced by new processes?
The A. M. Byers Company produces
4,500 tons of wrought iron month
by its recently perfected Ashton proc
ess at Warren, Ohio. About $50 men
are employed.
AT the company's Girard (Ohio)
plant, that operates under the old
system, 400 men produce 1000 tons
a month.
These figures show that at the
Warren plant one man produces 80
tons of iron month, with $50 less
men than the Girard plant, which
produces 10 tons per man.
