CONTINUE
IN BAKERY STRIKE
Company and Union State
ments Indicate Settlement
Is No Nearer.

Picketing of the sales trucks of the
Dutch Baker Boy. Inc, continued to-
day as spokesmen for the company
and the union issued statements indi-
eating the dispute was no nearer set
tlement The strikers are demanding
$38 a week
An offer to put up $4,000 bond to
guarantee" faithful performance of
its offer of yesterday, to share met"
profits with the striking drivers, was
made today by william M. Edwards,
company president.
The offer was rejected by Robert c.
Lester business agent of the Bakery
Salesmen's Union, No. 80. on the
ground it was not union contract"
MY company stands ready to sign
a fiye-year contract with the union,
and put up a $4,000 bond to guarantee
faithful performance on our part If
the union will put up a like bond to
insure its living up to the agreement"
Edwards declared.
IF only a written contract and a
bond is keeping Lester from accepting
our offer, then the strike can be set
tied within such time as is necessary
to draw up the necessary papers"
Denying the offer was a union con-
tract, Lester stated:
"The offer says nothing about
hours. wages. working conditions or
acknowledgment of the union. There
is a great difference in his wage
scale and other bakeries, and if their
gross profits were distributed as the
average, there might be more for the
men. If they want to build new
building, why don't they float bond
issue and build 1t out Of new cap
ital?"
Edwards reply to Lester's statement
was that the company would refuse
to borrow money to pay union wages.
The plant is being picketed and
strikers continue to follow the COM
pany's trucks to picket the salesmenis
routes. Lester said.

CAUGHT BY POLICE
EarIy-Morning Chase Ends

screaming. two Maryland police cars,
two District police motor cycles, a
squad car and a patrol wagon early
today chased. at IS miles an hour. a
speeding motorist along Bladensburg
road to Fifteenth and H streets north

charged at the ninth precinct station

mitted.
Becker's ride began shortly after l
am. when, according to police, his

ira. Led the attention of Earl Monrote
and Joseph T. Reeves, Maryland Off
GERS in separate cars.
Monrote and Reeves followed Becker
along the Bladensburg road toward
the District line and caught him just
within the Maryland boundary. They
said Becker agreed to return to the
Hyattsville police station and for per-
haps half a mile he drove along be-
hind the two officers.
Suddenly, however, they said. he ex-
ecuted U-turn and headed for
Washington. Monrote and Reeves
turned, but too late Becker was in
the District by the time the Maryland
police reached the line, but they hur-
ried after.
The sirens call reached the ears of
H. w. Carmichael and T. w. Shu-
mette. motor cycle policemen. who
were at New York avenue and Blad-
ensburg road northeast. They Joined
the chase when the three cars, now
closely punched, sped past the inter
section.
Meanwhile. the noise of the race
had awakened an unknown Blaoens
burg road resident, who telephoned to
the police radio dispatcher. The lat
ter ordered to Bladensburg road the
squad car and the patrol wagon of the
ninth precinct station, located at
Ninth and D streets northeast.
The seven vehicles came together at

"At present there is no appeal for

STREET CAR TRAFFIC
CHOKED AT CROSSING
Tie-Up at Fifteenth Street and
New York Avenue Despite
New Signals.

Street car traffic flowing into the
New York avenue and Fifteenth street
intersection was choked for blocks
during the morning rush hour today,
despite the new system of regulation.
Traffic Director William A. Van
Duzer blamed the car-loading plat
form on Pennsylvania avenue, just
east of East Executive avenue. The
platform will be enlarged to accom-
modate four cars instead of three, he
said, and estimated the change would
increase platform capacity Is per
cent.
The jam also was due, in part. Van
Duzer said, to the fact motormen are
not familiar with the new routing
and signal systems. and to the tempo
rary closing of Fourteenth street at
New York avenue and at H street.
"It will take a week or so to
straighten things out" he said.

FOR FINAL BRIEFS.
IN MILK DISPUTE
A. A. A. Sets Back Date
Again in Arguments Over
Marketing Agreement.
NEW YORK FACING
IMMEDIATE BOOST
Threat of Statewide Strike Of
Producers Makes Increase
Likely.

With an immediate increase in New
York milk prices likely under threat of
q State wide producers strike, the A. A.
A. today extended to next Monday the
deadline for final briefs on a proposed
marketing agreement, which con-
sumers fear might bring a price rise
in the District.
The demand of New York dairy farm
ers for higher payments by distributors
was based on the same argument ad-
vaEced by organized producers supply
ing milk to Washington-that drought
has crippled them economically.
Organized producers in the Washing
ton milkshed said the alternative to a
higher price was a milk shortage this
Fall. The Empire State farmers used
stronger language, threatening strike,
with violence more brutal than we
have ever SEEN" unless they are paid
more to compensate in some measure
for their drought losses.
Anticipate 1-Cent Boost.
As a result of the threatened strike,
New York anticipates an increase Ct
! cent quart in the retail price of
milk, which is the same increase that
could be expected to follow success of
local producers demands.
Dairy farmers in the Washington
milkshed get about $3.0o per 100
pounds of milk, compared to s2.45 re-
ceived by their brothers in New York,
and ask $685., compared to the $500
sought by the New Workers.
The original deadline for briefs was
August 4. This was extended until
today to allow for QUESTIONABLE to
determine just what handlers are
paying producers for milk Since dis
tribution of the QUESTIONABLE was not
begun until Mondays. another extern
sion was granted until August II.
Evaluating Testimony.
A. A. A. economists are evaluating
hearing testimony and QUESTIONABLE
replies to determine whether to rec
onmend that Secretary of Agriculture
Wallace establish Federal control of
the Washington milk market.
The Maryland and virginia MIX
Producers Association. representing
about 1,100 of the l,400 dairy farm
ers supplying milk to the District.
asks that they be guaranteed a price
increase equivalent to cents a gallon.
The original A. A. A. draft of the
proposed agreement provided for no
increase in the price to producers, and
1t was believed this item would remain
the same, for the time being. at least
If the farmers plight does not improve,
however. some increase might be pro-
Vided later.
Pending the A. A. A. decision OF
the marketing agreement and the
producers price demand. Dr. George
C. Ruhland, District health officer, has
been conferring with consumers. dis.
tributors and producers to learn
whether health regulations have any
tendency on the trend toward an in
creased price. The producers told him
it was the drought, not the regulations,
which made their production costs Sc
high.
