CHICAGO, July l7.-Chiefs of the

Organizing Committee, empowered
to call strikes against the big pack
ing companies, considered the next
move in their efforts to obtain con-
tracts in the huge industry today.
Delegates to the National Policy
Convention of the union voted
unanimously yesterday to authorize
officers and national bargaining
committees to order walkouts at any
time If the meat packing firms de-
clined to confer with them for the
purpose of formulating working
agreements.
The first step was scheduled for
tomorrow, when officials planned to
serve formal notice of the action
of the conference upon Armour g.

new drive.
Resolutions Adopted.
In resolutions adopted unani-

resent $4,000 of the 129 900 workers
in the industry, the conferees ex-
pressed willingness to leave the
question Of whether or not Armour
g. Co. officials shall meet with Off

If Armour refused to negotiate, a
strike should be declared in II OF

had tc be put up and Oliver Fair
brass had no money to buy another
horse. So, he related, he hitched
himself with his 16-year-old horse,
Queen, pulled until his eyes stuck
out-and got the hay in.
Mr.. Fairbrass, 81, who farms a
small tract north Of Omaha, ex-
planned that was the only thing to
do. -Four horses had died, one after
the other, and he could dig no more
from slender cash resources to buy
another.
1T took five hours to do what I
could have done in an hour with a
team" he said.
II guess can't kick, though. I've
still got Queen. I don't know what
I'd do without her"
Mrs. Fairbrass drove the heavy
hay rick while her husband and
Queen strained at the tugs. They
used the family automobile to NOV
and rake the alfalfa, but the car
could not negotiate steep hills with
the rick.

Worlds Fair officials agreed today
to consider" a demand by exhib-
itors and concessionaires for a re-
duction in the admission price from

ing protests over light attendance.
While anxious to avoid any pub
lie Interpretation of price-slashing
as confession that the fair was
a failure, officials indicated that cut
ting the admission charge, might
prove beneficial-as illustrated by
the doubling of business at fair
parking fields where the fee was
cut from so to Is cents.
The exhibitors and concession
aires, it was understood, had also
decided to ask for a further gate re-
duction at night-probably Is cents

wrong to treat the people who come
here that way
Seven minutes after Mr.. Kennedy
adjourned the meeting, four more
members arrived, but it was too late
then to reconvene the session. Act
ing Chairman Kennedy had left the
committee room.
Although Mr.. Schulte's move
blocked any possibility of getting
his own revised milk bill on the
House calendar in time for consider
alton next Monday, the last District
day of the month unless a special
meeting is held in the meantime,
he said he had other plans to get
milk legislation enacted at this ses-
sion of Congress.
He pointed out his original milk
bill, which the House debated for
four hours several weeks ago, is still
on the calendar as unfinished busi-
ness" If a point of order against
part of this measure should be sus-
tained. he said, he would either offer
his revised bill as an amendment or
seek action on that portion of the
original bill which is not subject 10
point of order
That portion of the original bill
believed to be point of order proof
would merely open the District milk
market exclusively to cream pro-
duced in areas beyond the local
milkshed. The section of the bill
Mr.. Schultz thinks is subject to a
point of order provides for substi-
tuition of the uniform milk code OF
the United States Public Health
Service for the 1925 District Milk
Control Act.
Outstanding among the nine bills
the committee planned to consider
today were:
/. To revise lunacy proceedings in
the District.
z. To make permanent parking
meters installed in the business Sec
tion on an experimental basis and
authorizing the Commissioners to
extend their use to other sections.
3. To provide a small loan law for

4. To amend the law licensing real

5. To require persons convicted of
reckless driving to carry liability in
