of regaining the crown were slim.

The assembly was ready to take
quick action, though the proposal
of Governor Henry Homer to
limit special State dole aid TO
$4,000. 900 a month, most of which
would be allotted to Chicago, was
q stumbling block.
This proposal brought a flareup
in the Chicago city hall with
Corporation Counsel Barnet Hodes
charging the Governor was at
tempting to place the legislature
in q straitjacket.
BACKED BY KELLY
Mayor Edward Kelly, bitter po-
litical enemy of Horner, lined up
with the Governor on this issue,

Milk Drivers Strike
Voted in Wage Fight
Higher Costs Bar
Raise, Reply
Diaries

Increased costs Of business
operations IN the District Of
Columbia-notably the business
privilege tax and increases Of the
motor vehicle and real estate
taxes-were given as the primary
reason today why local diaries are
unable to meet demands Of their
drivers for increased pay.
Explaining their side Of the
controversy which developed here
last night when Milk Drivers
Local No. 246 met and voted to
strike June 6 unless their demands
are met, Q committee Of five rep
resenting all union diaries in the
city held q press conference today
and expressed doubt as to whether
business conditions would permit
their companies to meet the In
creased pay demand.
AWAIT FORMAL WORD
No official action can be taken
on the demands set forth by the
local, however, the committee ex-
planned, until they have been
officially notified that the com.
promise" offer has been rejected.
This compromise offer, it was
explained, would renew the con.
tract under which the union now
operates with the following new
concessions:
/. Two weeks vacation in
stead Of one, with pay.
2. Installation Of time clocks.
8. Payment Of interest on
bonds required of drivers.
4. A 48-hour week for plant
workers, with time and a-halt
for overtime.
5. A 56-hour week for drivers.
PAY is CHIEF ISSUE
The chief point Of contention
is centered around the demand OF
the union for pay increases raising
their salary from the present mini
mum of $3.50 to $3.50 per week.
The present salary, the committee
said, which was agreed upon last
June s, represents an increase OF
IS over the previous scale.
Approximately $500 drivers
would refuse to make deliveries II
the strike voted last night is called.
Every dairy in the city except
Highland Farms would be affected
by such move.
A spokesman for the committee
said:
I'm view of the past conces-
sions, added with the present
compromise offer, we, are hope.
full that the drivers win realize
that we have met them half
way. In the face of the in
creased costs Of operation,
which we would have preferred
passing on to our drivers, it ap-
pears that additional increases
In pay are impossible. Although
our operating cost has greatly
increased since the present con-
tract was entered into last June,
we are willing to continue this
contract, along with the new
concessions offered in our COM
promise agreement"
