Hahn CIerksWaIk0 Out;
Strike Threat Fades
AT Is Clothing Stores

About $50 retail shoe clerks of the
William Hahn & Co. stores went on
strike today, but threatened walk
out involving statesmen of 13 leading
mems clothing stores was averted
temporarily last night when Local
262, Retail Clerks (AFD, members
voted settlements with two of the
stores.
Hahn store officials said all the
five District stores affected, except
the women's shop at 1907 F street
NV, opened for business as usual
today. however.
John j. Tracy, business manager
OF the local, said negotiations broke
down on the unions demand for a
$40 weekly salary increase for shoe
statesmen and IS boost for those
selling hosiery and handbags. He
said he did not know when meetings
will be resumed.
Terms Of Settlement.
At the same time, the union,
meeting at Odd Fellows Hall, voted
to accept a settlement with the
Raleigh and Eiseman's haberdash-
cries, which include 51a per cent
commission on a $45-a-week salary
for clothing salesmen and 61a per
cent for furnishing men drawing $40
a week, with the weekly earnings
setting the standard for vacation
pay, Mr.. Tracy said.
The union also ordered that ne
gotiationS for the same settlements
proceed with the other clothing es-
tablishments affected, he said.
Mrs. Rose Forester, Labor De-
partment conciliator, said additional
settlements with the other stores
might be forthcoming If more time
is allowed for negotiation.
Sought for 20 Years.
Mr.. Tracy charged that manage
ment has refused for 20 years to
change the commissions paid sales
men, and added vacation pay de-
mands are another reason for hold
ing up negotiations.
The accepted settlements with the
two clothing stores met the unions
present demands on the other es-
tablishments.
Stores involved now include the
Young Mems Shop, Mode, Bell, D. j.
kaufman, National Shirt Shop,
Lewis & Thomas SaltZ, Inc. Gros-
ner, Herzog's, Pelzman's and Bond
Store officials argue that the sales
men already are amply paid and
that they cannot afford to increase
the commissions without passing the
cost on to customers.

Separate Coal Wage
Talks Will Continue

Labor Department officials planned
to continue separate talks with soft

Workers today in their search fol-
a basis of bringing about renewal
of contract negotiations.
The Nation wide strike of 400, ,O0C
miners entered its 18th day with nc
indication that its end was near
Operators and miners appeared as
far apart on terms of a new wage
agreement as the day negotiations
were opened March IL.
Paul w. Fuller, special Labor De-
partment conciliator, was assigned
by Secretary Schwellenbach to talk
with the operators, while Assistant
Secretary John w. Gibson conferred
with John L. Lewis and his mine
workers.
There was some hope joint nego-
|tiations might be renewed next week
although Mr.. Schwellenbach said he
thought such a conference would be
useless for the time being.
Mr.. Lewis was said to be main
tanning his position that his de-
mands for a union health and well
fare fund should have first priority
in the discussions. Operators, or
the other hand, wish to talk wages
and hours, which they consider the
most important.

Australian War Bride Awaits
Arrival of Navy Husband Here

Mrs. Mavis F. Slaughter, 25-year-
old Australian war wife, reversed
the customary procedure of being
greeted by her husband on her ar
rival here late yesterday and in
stead will greet him when he comes
from Hawaii shortly.
When a special train brought
her and their son, David, 2, into
Silver Spring. Md, she said her
husband. Navy Machinist's Mate
Clarence Lee Slaughter, Is, was be-
lieved to be on his way from Homo
lulu and was due in this country
very soon, at which time she would
have the pleasure of welcoming
him to America.
She met him through a friend
while a laundry worker in Sydney
and they were married May 25, 1912
Pending his arrival she said she
would be with her mother -in Law,
Mrs. G. L. Slaughter, at $500 Colum-
bia pike, Arlington, Va.
She disembarked in San Francis
so few days ago from the trans
port Lurline, in company with nearly
100 other Australian war wives who
also were on the train. However,
with exception of two of the other
young women with family connec-
lions in this area, the rest went on
to New York, New Jersey and other
points. The Washington area wives
got off at Silver Spring because the
train by-passed Union Station.
