CHICAGO, June 24.-Threats of a
strike of $500 city employees on July l
re-echoed today after a peace con-
ference between union chieftains and
city officials ended in a deadlock.
At the end of the two-hour meet

TO withdraw their objections to the
city's legislative plan to raise funds
required to meet workers demands
for restoration of salaries cut during
the depression.
Michael Carrozzo head of the Street
Cleaners Union, contended the plan
threatened reduction in the number
of his workers on city pay rolls.
Michael j. Boyle, head of the

walked out. throwing a large area of
