DETROIT, Nov. 30 U.N.S).
While 900 union workers at the
Midland Steel Products Company
here still held possession Of the
plant in their "sit down" strike,
progress was reported today in
negotiations to settle the labor
dispute.
After A. L. Faulkner, U. s..
Department Of Labor conciliator,
arranged a conference between
the management and officials Of
the United Automobile Workers
Union, Wyndharn Mortimer,
spokesman for the union, said
the company had agreed to union
demands for a 45-hour week,
time-and-a-half for overtime, and
recognition of the union as the
agency for collective bargaining.
The sole remaining point of con-
tention, he said, was the union
demand for an increase in pay
for piece work that would average
about 10 cents an hour.
Gordon Stoner, vice-president of
the company, was noncommittal,
saying:
"I have no idea how we are
going to make out, or whether
an agreement can be reached.
All 1 can say is that the negO-
tiatiOns will continue today"

together the attendance for the

Myrtle, 3S, who parted some time
ago because of another woman,
were reunited in death today.

Leight, who had been working at
Leonardtown, Md, called at his
wife's home and she went away
with him in his automobile. The
police were told Leight wanted a
divorce but his wife refused. They
had been married % years.

HOMES
HIGH H|NDECEMBER
Survey Shows Building Loan
Financing Reached $780,
128,000 Total.

Going counter to the seasonal trend,
the volume Of home lending by saw
ings, building and loan associations
moved into higher ground in Decem-
ber after O slight seasonal slump the
month before, 1t is reported by Morton
Bodfish, executive vice president Of
the United States Building and Loan
League.
The estimate for the Nations build
ing and loan financing the last month
of 1895 shows total of $4,000 sepa-
rate loans granted, with dollar volume
Of $50, ,128, 1000. This compares with
$78.116,000 in November.
Bodfish indicated that the end OF
the year pickup brought loan dis
bursements for the final quarter up
to safe, ,023, 900, and Of this amount
some $50, 400, 900 went into construc-
ton loans. It was the largest last
quarter lending business reported since
boom times, the amount being more
than half the years total in 1882, and
10 per cent Of the years total for 1888.
l,21o Associations Report.
The December figure. Is based on
actual reports from 1,210 different as
sociations, holding with their ST..
425 ,s0S, 900 in assets about % per cent
of all the building and loan assets.
This group tabulated an exact report
Of $17,948y879 loaned in December.
Construction loans held up well In
their percentage Of all loans disbursed
In December, in spite Of the obvious
Of Winter They were $17,059, 900, or
21.2 per cent, of the estimated total
volume, and IA per cent of the total
number of all loans by associations.
This figure is practically double the
amount of new construction loans
made by associations in December,
1894.
December loans for repairing and
undermining houses, the other phase
Of building and loan activity which
contributes directly to employment,
also about held their own, being esti-
mated at 4.897 900. or 81 per cent of
the total loans, as compared with s5.-
$4,000, or per cent of all loans in
November.
Home Loans Gain.
The real gain for the month was
registered in the loans designated for
home purchase, which were more
than 81 100000 greater In volume
than IN November, and accounted for
full fifth of all the savings and loan
disbursements. Reflnancing opera
tions, by which associations took over
loans formerly held by other agencies,
reflected the tapering OF of H. o. L.
c. operations, therefore increased over
the preceding month. and totaled
$3l $3.50. 900 in the leagues estimate
for the Nation. Mr.. Bodfish indicates
that there is particular encourage
ment In the uptrend of home purchase
loans, since it vouches for a quicken
ing of the real estate market. the be-
ginnings Of more rapid absorption of
existing homes and consequent paw
ing Of the way for home construction
increases as early as February in the
nilder parts Of the country and
March and April elsewhere.
