Gas Workers
File Formal
Strike Notice
U. S. Action Believed
Sole Hope Of Avertine
Paralysis of District,

Possibility of a paralyzing gas
workers strike Saturday that could
be averted only by Government
action appeared stronger today.
Organized employees of the WASH
ington Gas Light Co. this morning
gave formal notice of a vote by a
production employees union last
night to reject the last company
offer of an 1872 hour in
crease.
j. D. Dingwell, vice president in
charge of public relations, would
raise its offer no further and offered
to submit the dispute to an arbitra-
ton board. He said the union repre-
sentatives rejected this offer.
Conciliator Joins Talk.
T. Federal Cancellation Commission
er Lucien F. Rye planned to meet
with both parties again this after
noon and seek agreement to put the
controversy before an arbitration
board.
The union, whose representatives
had thought the membership might
accept the 1872 cent offer, pegged
It's new demands at "a cents an
hour, with time and half and
double time demands in certain
overtime and holiday employment.
Earlier, it was learned on good au-
thority that the Government is pre-
pairing to step in to avert such a
walkout.
The membership of Local So. In
ternational Chemical Workers (AFL)
last night voted, 226 to 81. to reject
the company's offer of an 1872 cents
an hour increase in wages A strike
meeting was called for Friday night.
From an informed source it was
learned that Government repre-
sentatives will be present at the
union meeting and that, if strike
is voted, as union officials say it
will be, legal machinery will imme-
diately be set in motion to set up
Government control of the gas in
dustry here.
Organized Office employees of the
gas company have previously voted
to follow any action of the produc-
ton employees.
Would Disrupt Daily Life.
Both gas company and union Of
ficials said such a walkout would
seriously disrupt the daily life OF
the District and surrounding area
Cooking, heating and refrigeration
equipment would be affected in
thousands of homes, restaurants
hospitals and other institutions.
Operating officials said it would
take 80 to so days for gas service
to be restored to normal without
explosive hazards if even a 24-hour
strike took place.
Gas mains would have to be
checked block by block, and in some
possible cases, house by house, ii
was declared. if gas supply were
cut off for a period and then re-
stored.
Unless every gas user-assumine
all individual unit valves were com.
pletely tight-cut off his gas as soor
as word of the shut off were received
such action would have to be begur
by the gas company after the ga
would start to flow again. But, il
was pointed out, it is almost hu.
manly impossible to have every usel
cut off his own gas supply.
Thorough Check Needed.
Therefore, in order to assure nor
NAL pressure in every gas pipe al
over the city and environs, the com
pany would have to check to see /
pressure were sufficient before con
sumers in each block, or even in
dividual buildings, could safely be-
gin using gas again.
