JefIrieS and his advisers left tho
ICIO group on the twenty-tiftf
floor at 1870 p. IN. and returned
TO the AFL leaders on the fifth
floor. At 2 a. IN. today, the mayor
made one more short visit to the
lCIO spokesman and at $40 a. m
he announced;
There il no use talking any
longer tonight. The thing is
deadlocked.
1--WE might as well have been
In Africa hunting big game"
Mayor Jeffries declared the city
cannot at this time give exclusive
bargaining rights TO any one union,
thus disagreeing with Martel
(Martel insisted that only the
AFL should have check-off rights
and bulletin board privileges.
1t was the dispute over dual
bulletin boards that brought the
long-smoldering battle to head
with the ALL walkout yesterday.

ALL had walked out at a time
when il has been losing members
to the Go.
"Tu tell you why" Jeffries
said. "They want you folks out
of there"
Three peace proposals were
offered by Jeffries yesterday and
spurned by the AF'L. His first
suggestion was that all workers
return to their jobs and that dis
cussians continue daily until a
peaceful settlement is reached.
ASKS ARBITRATOR
He next proposed that the dis
pute be submitted TO an impartial
arbitrator, such as court, the
workers returning meanwhile. The
third plan called for an election to
decide which union has a majority.

they did not go on a picnic or
To a ball game" the mayor was
told by Howard Burroughs,
committeeman of Division 20
Of the AFL street car union.

and fight i'm Europe than to go

proposals"
Mayor JeffrieS asked Burroughs
and Martel:
"Are we committed 10 dual
unioniSm and chaos? Or can
this problem be worked out so
that we do not have two unions

DSR Commissioner Gilbert in
tervened by asserting that basic
ally. the dispute over bulletin
boards has nothing 10 do with the
strike.
Lets call spade spade"
Gilbert said to Martel 1.-THE
