NO OFFICIAL NOTICE

Gordon Richie, manager Of the
store, said he had received no Of
fetal notice Of reopeninG. II came
by telephone a few minutes later
from Lansing liquor control head
quarters.
In his statement the governor
welcomed the strikers back 10
work, reversing a ruling by the
civil service commission that the
215 Detroit strikers are fired be-
cause they have been absent more
than two days without leave.
Thomas j. Wilson, civil service
director, explained he cannot en-
force the o m m : 81 ms rule
because the liquor control COM
mission has not given him an Of
fetal list OF striking employees
AS long as I get no Separa-
ton notices there Is nothing !

Wilson endorsed the governors
plea 10 the men to return 10
work.
After n conference with ad-
viSerS, lasting long into the night,
Governor Van Wagner issued
the following statement:
1T appears that liquor COM
mission employees In the lower
brackets are unherpaid. This Is
presumably true Of employees I'm

partments, institutions and COM
missions

Demands for blanket pay in
.creases were the major unsolved
problem today between the city
officials and the representatives of
organized labor as the threat OF a
walkout in five city departments
mounted.
With only 100000 appropriated
for pay raises for salaried work.
ers, city budget officials were
faced with the job of finding sew
eral times this amount in order TO
even meet the union emands half

DPW. the water board. the
Salaried workers Of the DSR. the

HEARING TOMORROW

The Common Council will hold
a hearing on the water board de-
mandS tomorrow and unless some
definite progress is made here the
strike threats will come TO a head
Monday.
The city'S legal authorities con-
tend that the 100000 appropriated
is all that can be paid out in raise
under the law.
The union contends that amounts
in excess OF this can be used under
emergency powers" by borrowing
against tax collections for the
fiscal year starting July l. 1912.
A complicated legal question is
involved and there are a number
of court opinions bearing upon 1t.
To DISREGARD SCHEDULE
The Common Council indicated
earlier that they are planning 10
disregard in large part the new
city salary schedule which has
been compiled during the last four
months by the auditor general,
civil service department and
budget bureau
The new schedule. which pro-
vides pay cuts for most of the
policewomen of the city, brought
a flood of protests 10 the council
from women's organizations and
from the Municipal Employees AS
ISOLATION
THE work Of this committee
has been disrupting the whole
city service just aS I told John
Hamilton ID would when he pro-
posed II about year ago.
Council President John w. Smith
said.
II wish the whole thing would
stop right where IL is" Council
man Charles +. DoralS added.
In the negotiations with all the
departments good progress has
been made in ironing out the
grievances a fife citing individual
cases. but the demands for blanket
increases of from ) 70 Is cents
an hour have run into the inSur-
mountable o bsta c g Of budget
limitations.
