WORKERS. HUNT
OLD JOBS AS
STRIKE ENDS
Three Month Battle
For Recognition
Is ThWarted

Thwarted in their three-month
battle to get formal recognition
and written assurance of a 44-hour
week at 80 cents an hour, men,
berS of the International ASSocia-
tion of MachinistS today were
seeking reinstatement on their old
jobs after voting last night to
terminate their strike.
According to union officials, the
peak Of the strike saw $50 auto
mechanics and helpers in a walk
out affecting 10 Washington auto
establishments.
Wage Rates Better
Termination of the walkout
came, Union Secretary David Kap-
Ian said, because the men felt
they had definitely improved
wage rates and working conditions
throughout the city and did not
think they could permit formal
recognition of the union to stand
in the way of Unemployment OF
strikers.
Men in Good Standing
Despite an earlier decision to
suspend from union membership
those men who returned to work
at two local firms prior to formal
termination of the strike, these
workers will be allowed to con-
tinue in good standing in Local
1893, Kaplan added.
A survey of the dealers today
indicated that in rehiring men
there will be no discrimination
against employees who joined the
strikers ranks. The dealers who
were questioned, stated that they
have already taken many of the
strikers back and would continue
to do so as business warranted.

with regard to the dispute between
Ethiopia and Italy proposes the gov

League should abrogate July Is the

conformity with its proposals"
The sanctions have been "by no
means negligible" Augusta Vascon-

Vasconcellos, president Of the COM
mittee, opened the session to raise the
penalties from the Fascist nation with
a lengthy review of the Leagues first
attempt to apply punitive" measures
against an aggressor.
He said it was obvious from the
outset sanctions could not be COM

However. citing extensive trade losses
and decrease of italian gold reserves,
