Search For Killer Spurred By 81, 800 Reward
Duriron Strike Ends; 18H Cent Pay Hike. .Ciuen

The Duriron company an d
United Steelworkers of America,
Local 1920, last night ended their
36-day strike, settling on an 1872
cent-an-hour wage increase for
hourly-rated factory employees.
The agreement, signed by the
company and union officials after
a four-hour conference, also grants
9A-cent-an-hour pay, retroactive
to Jan. l. Effective today, the con-
tract will extend to April l, 1947.
Duriron's position regarding the
increase was clarified late yester-
day by a telegram from the Ma
tional Wage Sterilization Board
(WSB) authorizing the 181a-cent
settlement. Robert C. Schenck, ex-
ecutive vice president, said full
production will be resumed as
quickly as possible.
Schenck said employees will be
notified when to report for work,
predicting workers will be back on
the job by Friday.
Previously the union and COM
pany agreed to 19-cent hourly in
crease without back payments.
Final settlement was withheld
pending reply from the stabiliza-
tion board approving this decision.
Local 1920 went on strike Jan.
Fl, following the national CIO or
ganization order for steelworkers
to leave plants over the country.
Clerical, supervisory and office
employees continued to enter the
plant here throughout the strike.

and active in trying to bring influ-

Lloyd Loomis, the last two being
former assistant prosecutors of
Wayne county, have been men

HOUSTON, Feb. % (ANP)-
What is believed to be the biggest
reward ever offered for the appre-
hension of a killer of Negro in the
south may bring about his arrest,
it was stated by police as they dis
tributed a poster offering $4,000
reward for the information leading
to the arrest of the murderer of
Richard H. Guess, slain labor lead
er who was shot in the back week
ago Sunday night.
The poster announcing the re-
ward was signed by an inspector of
police and distributed throughout
the Negro wards in Houston.
The Hughes Tool Co., a steel
plant where Guess worked for 20
years, offered $4,000; $500 was Of
fered by the Independent Metal
Workers union and $500 by the
Masonic lodge.
Several suspects have been ar
rested and grilled by police. Quite a
furore has been raised in the daily
and weekly papers in the city and
it is but matter Of time before the
killer is apprehended, police say.
Guess, business agent for the
IMWU and a former president of
the union, was said to have been
largely responsible for back to
work movement among workers.
Many of the CIO strikers, who
have partly tied up the plant since
the inception of the steel strike
some time ago, have returned to
work and he was believed to have
been responsible for it.

DUNBAR SHOWS CLASS IN
BEATING BELLEF0NTAINE

Middletown, Hamilton P u b c
and Dayton Dunbar swept through
their first game as the second
round of play of the district bas-
ketball tourney unrolled last night
at the Fairgrounds coliseum. Final
scores were: Middletown 38, Xenia
Central "a; Hamilton Public 45,
Dayton Fairview A; and Dayton
Dunbar 81, Bellefontaine %.
The Middletown victory was the
47th consecutive one for the Mid
dies and they found the Green
county Bucs little opposition. They
had defeated the Xenians 52-26
earlier in the season..
Holding comfortable lead all
the way through the contest, the
Middies seemingly were under no
pressure throughout the fracas.
Probably the best team offense
and defense in many a moon was
displayed last night by a plucky
Dayton Dunbar quintet which re-
fused to take defeat.
Trailing 9-5 at the end of the
first quarter, the Dunbar lads
jumped into the lead at halftime
with a count of 1914. This was
increased at the three-quarter pole
as Dunbar held a lead of 1921.
But late in the final period, the
Chiefs staged a comeback and
knotted the count on a quirk of
the game. Dunbar took its sixth
time-out while leading 1927. That
brought a technical foul and Belle
fontaine's Dearwester converted to
tie the score.
That was the last tally Belle
fontaine made. A minute later,
Dunbar's scoring ace, Eddie Daw-
son, dropped a bunny shot and
Bill Guy converted free throw for
31-28 verdict.
