VlSoQ. The telegram, from David Lano. executive secretary of the United Auto Workers, operating in the Chevrolet plant, was read to moro than 200 snop stewards com prising the Federated Council. It was wildly applauded and a unanimous vote supporting President Roose- welt" was taken by the delegates. Mayor CouZens regarded the settlement as ending the threat of "a catastrophe"
 Detroit" he said, 'is today leading the recovery drive. All parties to the agreement are to be complimented for their cooperation with President Roosevelt" One Major Victory Industrial management experts, attempting to analyse terms of the settlement, found one majop ~vic- 1 tory for the workers-the right to organize, without discrimination. For the first time since the birth of the great industry, 8 mans right to. work can not be challenged be- cause of his affiliations with the American Federation of Labor.
 There remained, in this situa- tion, however, another challenge.
 Henry Ford, employing more than 10000 workers, is neither a member of the National Automo- bile Chamber of Commerce, which has just emerged from it's dramatic battle, nor of the NRA. No organi- zation has foothold in his fac- tories.
 William Green, president of the Federation of Labor, already has made on abortive attempt to pres- ent that issue to the government. His field brief, containing a long series of charges to show alleged discrimination and the operation of so-called espionage system" by which Ford has kept his plants comparatively free of union infiu- ence, was dismissed by the recov- cry administration as "insuffi- cient."
 Under these circumstances, it was regarded as probable that the next attack of unionism would concern Ford, on the theory that conditions throughout the industry must be made uniform, and that the government will support any such drive.

 strike today, demanding higher wages.
 The walk-out was agreed upon
 last Friday night at a mass meet ing which was addressed by Joseph
 Sylvia, textile union organizer.
 Four weavers and one spinner re-
 fused to join the strikers and re-
 mained at their looms, it was un-
 derstood.
 The weavers originally had de-
 manded a 25 per cent increase but
 later reduced this to 12 1-2 per cent to conform with compromise
 settlement made at the Somersville
 Manufacturing company more than
 week ago.
 The waIk-out was conducted
 quietly and without demonstration. E. E. Hilliard, president of the
 company, refused to discuss the
 demands.
 we haven't any statement to
 make," he said.
 Besides the wage increase, weav. CTS had demanded the company re. tract a request for employees prom ises not to engage in any strike
 without first giving the firm 30 days notice. President Bernard T. Halpin ot the United Textile Workers of America labor, was to address the strikers at mass meeting later
 in the day. Picket lines were to be established and the protest carried on in orderly fashion.
 Tear Gas Bombs Cleveland, March 26-(UP)- Tear gas bombs were hurled by police today when violence fiared in a strike of union workers at the Cleveland worsted mills. A dog en strikers were arrested after a hand hand battle between pick. cts and men and women employees trying to run the blockade around the plant. During worst of the
 melee, while hundreds were fight ing, Edward Dork, newspaper photographer, was struck on the head with a club as he attempted
 to take a picture.
 Fighting started when group of 75 men and women attempted to pierce the picket lines and en- ter the plant. The tear gas was thrown after four squads of police were unable to break up the dis turbance. As acrid, choking fumes spread through their ranks strikers and their opponents scattered. Ap- proximately 1900 persons normally are employed at Cleveland worsted mills.. f
 Anicfican Mills Picketed West Haven, Conn, March 28-- (UP)-Picketing was resumed to- day at the American Mills, Inc branch plant here in protest of wage rates and refusal of company officials to recognize the United Textile Workers of America local recently formed.
 About 300 weavers joined the moyehfent. They asked a .25 per cent increase, abandonment of the two-loom system and reinstate- ment of their union secretary. who had been dismissed.
 President Julius B. Smith an nounced the company ''is operating under the code of fair competition ! for the narrow fabric industry and | the presidents re-emrloymeui agreement" and as awaiting action | by the code authority in establish. | ing uniform rates.

 3. Acknowledgement of labor's right of collective bargaining with representatives of their own choos- ing. Collective bargaining repre- sentation on pro rata member ship basis.
 4. Board to have access to all payrolls and to all lists of claimed employe representation.
 5. Principle of need for work to be first consideration in reducing or increasing plant forces.
 The board to be set up by the MIRA, was expected to be named to- day with personnel of three. One member will represent labor, one industry, and the third, will be neu- tral.
 Credit for President
 Credit for settlement of the con- troversy was given by both sides to President Roosevelt.
 While the representatives of the union and manufacturers appeared elated at the outcome, both confi- dent that they had gained @ victory Gen Hugh s. Johnson, recovery administrator, and mediator in the battle, observed:
 Ut was an even break for both sides"
 William Green, head of the American Federation of Labor, who led the fight of the workers, saw in the outcome attainment of his ob- jectfves.
 The manufacturers. clung to their policy of saying nothing for publication.
 The president termed the settle- ment lone of the most encouraging incidents of the recovery program"

u. S. Factory To
Make Furniture
Laboratory Only
Is Project Objected to by
Senators Bailey and
Vandenburg

WASHINGTON, Feb. %. (UP)
Protests by Senator Bailey, N. c.,
and others against the establish
ment of a furniture factory ct
Reedsville, w. ", pet project
of Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt,
were answered by Mrs. Roosevelt
at a press conference yesterday.
Reedsville is the scene of Mrs.
Roosevelt's favorite subsistence
farm project. The First Lady said
Yesterday that the factory would
be but a laboratory. Of the rs or
100 subsistence projects, Mrs.
Roosevelt said, Reedsville is the
only place where the government
plans to build a factory. There,
she said. the government would
control the project for year or
more to find out how successful
this type of thing can be with
continuous employment.
Senator Bailey and Senator
Vandenburg, of Michigan, and
others are opposing the establish,
ment of the factory which would
supply furniture for the post Of
fee department on the grounds
that it would be an entering
wedge for government industry in
opposition to private industry
from which the government de-
riyes taxes.
