Palmer House Strike
Breaks All Services
For Nearly 9 Hours
By the Associated Press

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Oct. 20-Nearly 1000
hotel patrons struggled along with
few modern conveniences for nearly
nine hours today when elevator OPP
orators went on strike at the Loop
Palmer House and soon were joined
by cooks, busboys, maids, porters
bartenders and BARRIERS.
The strike ended when representa-
tives of 13 Loop hotels and the AFL
Elevator Operators and Starters
Union announced they had agreed at
midday conference on scale OF
wage increases.
Under the new wage scale, the
conferees announced, operators will
receive from $13750 to $145 month.
They previously had received from
S1O4 to $11650 a month, the union
said.
First Disruption in Service.
The AFL operators, who normally
man IL general and II service lifts
quit work at 7 am. today, causing
what hotel officials said was the
first major disruption of service in
the nearly 75-year history of the
Chicago hostelry.
The strikers threw picket line
around the building before most OF
the guests had awakened. Other
AFL Union workers refused to pass
the picket line with the result that
nearly 500 cooks, bus boys, maids
porters, bartenders and BARRIERS
joined the work stoppage.
Hotel guests crowded around ele-
vator doors on upper floors, impa-
tiently buzzing the elevator signals
Hotel officials, one in formal morn
ing clothes, manned a half dozen
elevators and began restoring service
Incoming Patrons Refused.
Meanwhile, scores of incoming pa
irons were left stranded when the
hotel refused to take in additional
guests, despite advance reservations
Patrons checking out had to carry
their own baggage.
Guests could do little to ease their
plight, as Chicago hotels are ex-
periencing their busiest season in
years, with reservations booked
weeks in advance,
Leonard Filiatreaux, business rep
reSenta tive of the union, said the
strike of SIS operators stemmed from
demands of the union for a wage
increase from $104-$116.50 a month
to SITS.

Higgins Leaves WLB
Hearing and Rejects
Contract Extension
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
In defiance of the War Labor
Board, Andrew J. Higgins announc-
ed yesterday he no longer would
be bound by an order extending a
contract with employees in his New
Orleans shipyard.
Walking out of a hearing before
the Boards Shipbuilding Commits
sion, Mr. Higgins broke off negotia-
tions with the New Orleans Metal
Trades Council (AFL). He MAIN
tanned the proper bargaining agent
was undetermined.
Earlier, the commission had re-
cessed to decide what to do about
the company's refusal to go into
the merits" of contract issues, such
as a closed shop and unionization
of foremen.
Lawyers Also Withdraw.
Mr.. Higgins failed to return after
the recess and, after his position
was set forth by the attorneys, they
too, withdrew.
One of the attorneys, Fontaine
Martin, said the company no longer
considers an interim WLB order,
extending a contract that expired
last January, as binding.
You mean that as of right now
Mr.. Higgins has an open shop and
has no contract?" asked D. O.
Spears, member of the Metal
Trades Council.
You can draw your own con-
clusions," answered Mr.. Martin.
Phillips Garman, vice chairman
Of the Shipbuilding Commission,
asked Mr.. Martin if he were aware
a decision might be handed down
on the contract issues even if the
company withdrew.
Reserves Right of Appeal.
Mr. Martin said he did, but added
he would not consider it binding.
You would not recognize any
directive order?" asked Edward B
Rowan, labor member of the COM
mission.
I'VE reserve the right of appeal 81
Mr.. Martin said.
Mr.. Garman Interpreted the lat
ter to mean the company would
feel free, in event of a ruling by
the commission, either to appeaI
to the WLB or to disregard the
order Mr.. Garman said he die
not know when a decision woulo
/ be reached.

There was his gutted plant and there he

then one of us said:
