Garage Workers Strike

Fifteen hundred garage washers
and polishers went on strike in the
Bronx yesterday, affecting 300 gar
ages. The strike was called by the
Garage Washers and Polishers'
Union, Local 272. Endorsed" by
the American Federation of Labor,
it undoubtedly will be betrayed by
that body as was the strike of the
busmen of Staten Island and the
street car men of New Orleans.
Within a few hours after the
walkout, Herman Cohen, president
of the union, charged that police
were beating up pickets who had
been distributing leaflets in nom
union garages. 1t was learned last
night that the Industrial Squad has
been mobilized to protect the scabs
and assault the union members.
The strikers demands are a nine
hour day, six-day week; a minimum
wage Of $35 a week for washers,
$50 for polishers and $2S for day
men, and union recognition.

CITIES SEEK right
TO FINANCE Light
PLANTS ION PROFITS
Injunction Suit at Cavalier Is
in Part Behind Bill SO,
Which J. Towns Ask

The mysteries OF house bill No. 68,
to allow municipalities to make pow
er plant extensions and improvements
without putting the matter to refer
endum Of the voters, were cleared in
the state affairs committee, this
morning, when delegations descended
from Valley City, Cavalier, Grafton,
New England, Park River and La
kota.
j. E. Garvey. mayor Of Cavalier.
was spokesman for the delegations.
He said the bill grew out Of the needs
of the several municipalities and an
injunction suit in which the munich
pal plant at Cavalier Is involved.
The various municipalities dis.
covered what they considered q way
to acquire light plants or to expand
or improve those In existence by us
ing profits accumulated or by pledg-
ing the future profits Of the plants.
This permitted them to get around
Issuing assessment warrants or bonds.
Testing Law In Suit
However, after James Lang sold his
Cavalier plant to the Otter Tail
Power company. the latter asked an
injunction on the municipal plant,
restraining It from operating, on the
ground it was illegally acquired. Flu
ture profits Of the operation were the
basis Of purchase, q bill Of sale to be
furnished when the purchase price
has been paid by these annual profit
foundations of the obligation.
The bill would make such purchas-
ing methods lawful beyond doubt, by
recognizing the principle. All such
deals, however, are subject to the
municipal debt limit.
In the house the bill was amended
by inserting the words, "the then ac-
cumulated profits"
Amendment Bars Purpose
Mayor Carney said that would draw
a bar across the very purpose the
municipalities were seeking to &C.
complish. It might create the i'm
plication that future profits could not
be used. Valley City has such &C
cumulated profits, SO 1t is not affected
by the amendment, but municipali-
ties seeking to establish plant where
there is none would have no such
money to proceed with, so they
would be barred. Lakota, for instance.
The delegations were seeking to have
this amendment stricken out. They
offered amendments having that eff
feet.
Mayor J. d. Robertson, Park River,
said that city's present plant has
been big success. The current rate
there is 1914 cents, the lowest ever
paid by the citizens.
Those in Delegation
Owing to the need of taking up the
grain storage measure within the ap-
preparation time limit. further con-
sidcration of the light plant bill was
postponed until after the afternoon
senate session.

MANCHURLA TO
NEGOTIATE IN
RAILROAD ROW

TOXIC. Nov. 4.-U.H-The ma
tional government of China has deci-
ded to permit the Manchurian gov
ernment to open independent nego-
tiations with the Soviet union for
settlement of the Chinese eastern
railroad crisis, the Nippon Dempo
news agency correspondent at Har-
bin reported today.
The negotiations would be in the
name of the national government
and Wellington Koo probably would
head the Manchurian delegation, the
dispatch said.
The Nippon Dempo dispatch said
the decision was prompted by in
creasing internal warfare in China
which is occupying the national gov
ernment's forces.
There were several reports somo
weeks ago that the Manchurian gov
ernment was seeking to negotiate
with the Soviet. but the reports lack
ed confirmation. The national gov
ernment was seeking to negotiate
Chinese Russian crisis and war-likc
movements along the Manchurian
border. Chang Hsueh-L Liang, the
Manchurian war lord. apparently
followed the policies of Marking in
dealing with the situation.
