AMERICAN WOMEN
 STRUCK BY JAP

Tientsin, China, Aug. 15-(UP)- The American Consulate revealed today that 8 Japanese army sentry had struck at a 59 year old Ameri- can women in the face after reject- ing the Identification cards given her by the American and Japanese consulates.
 When Mrs. Frances Mary Richard, 59, of San Francisco, sought to en- ter the blockaded foreign concession area, the sentry refused to recog- nize the United States official card.
 Mrs. Richard then showed him a personal card which Japanese vice consul N. Nishida had given her.
 This enraged the sentry. He or- dered Mrs. Richard to a search shack and demanded that she emp ty her vegetable basket.
 Mrs. Richard complied. But she turned her back because Chinese men were taking off their trousers | for search.
 Thereupon the sentry swung Mrs. Richard around to face him and struck her in the face.

The day such a strike is declared, shipments of cattle and stock will stop flowing into the big Armour yards and any others affected; i; Swift, Wilson, and Cudahy may also be struck at nod from union of- hcials. Two and half million farEl- CTS who raise livestock would be di- rectly. affected. Shortages of meat or rising prices might easily follow If the strike became widespread. COURT
 PUBLIC
 Both sides. are attempting to woo public opinion, the P. w. O. C., by broadsides and pamphlets the Ar- mour company by advertising, each setting forth their claims. But the basic difficulty is simple:
 The P. w. o. c. says: we have a majority of your employees, and we. want national contract cover- ing them"
 Armour says: "We doubt that you have such a majority. It is not proved. In all individual plants where you have proved it before the Labor Board, we are bargaining according to lsw. We do not want Q single national contract"
 Should such a nationwide pack Ing strike be unleashed, beginning with Armour, where the c. I. o. feels strongest, 1t might well be violent. The men who slaughter and pack the nations meat are a rugged lot, and past labor difficulties in this field have been marked by ex- treme violence.
 The P. w. o. 0. was organized in 1897 by the c. I. o. in the same manner as the s. w. o. c. in steel and the T. w. o. c. is1 textiles, that is, by bringing together for effec- tive organizing action all possible existing organizations in the in- dustry concerned, and building on that foundation. It seeks country wide contracts with the big pack. ing plants, a condition never vel attained.
 Many of the smaller packing plants have already been organ ized by the P. w. o. O., which to- day claims 78,000 members, more than half of all packinghouse work CTS in the country. The. P. w o. 0. claims that 30 per cent oi Armour workers belong to 1t, which is probably the reason why they are beginning with Armour.
 The company denies that this < the case, though string of Labol Board certifications in IA large Ar. mour plants i:l various cities indi. cates that the P. w. o. 0. must bt at least close to such a majority.
 The company insists that the cer. tiGcation of the big Chicago plant was obtained by the P. w. o. o. be. cause 1t got majority of all votes polleI in a plant election, but point! out that this was not Q majorit. of all employees, many not having voted at the election.

 The P. w. O. c. position is that though they have a majority of al Armour workers, that company ha.

injunction was also sought, dis missed the petition several days ago on the ground that it had no juris- diction.
 The nine dealers claim that the new law is in violation of the state constitution, and that its enforce ment will subject them to heavy fi- nancial loss. It is alleged that the $10 fee provision serves no useful purpose and amounts to confisca- ton. Glass legislation" in viola tion of the Bill of Rights is claimed.
 The act also requires that the full history of each car brought into this state for sale be secured and filed.

Wage rates are not primarily at stake; the union asks no general in- crease, but an adjustment of dif- ferentials so as to provide equal pay for equal work. The company says wages are at an all-time peak i; hours we'll within the law; annual earnings comparable to other h- dustrieS.
 The union asks betted seniority rules to provide more job security; the company says present seniority rules are just and ample, developed by 50 years of experiment.

 This Armour denies, insisting that 1t has bargained and as bargaining with every unit in which either the c. I. O. or the A. F. of L. has dem- onstrated majority. But it refuses to negotiate with the P. w, O. C. for the national contract which the organization seeks.
