Berlin FELTON,
Declares A. &B.
An Open Shop

Berlin Eelton, proprietor Of the
A. & B. Fish company, at the
foot Of Elizabeth street, near
Greene, stated today that his
company is from now on an open
shop. BY this, FELTON, emphasiz-
I'd. lie would in the future pur-
chase from both union and mons
union fishermen. He further
added that he is paying union or
better prices for all fish purchas-
ed from local fishermen. The
union price for groupers, MI. Eel
ton said, is 8 cents a pound and
he is paying 10 cents.
FELTON, said that though the
picketing has been orderly and
peaceful as reported in yester-
days Citizen, he did have some
complaints against the union.
First, and, he thought, most seri-
Gus. was that two unidentified
men had asked Mr.. Stone, who
works in the junk yard near the
A. & B. Fish company, whether
stone was guarding the fish
company at night. FELTON, said
that if the unidentified men were
union men that that would be
going "too far"
The second complaint was that
he was of the opinion that union
regulations forbade the talking OF
pickets to any disinterested party.
He said that he had seen piekets
talking to car drivers, who were
en- route to the fish company,
and though, he admitted, he did
not know what the conversation
was about or whether it was
relative to the present dispute
he did see these same car drlv-
ers back off and depart.

that the union intends to con-
tinue picketing until the men
fishing for Berlin FELTON,, Al. &B.
Fish Co., owner, are organized. "
Mr.. WEIGH, who resides on An

WEIGH pointed out the unfairness
of this arrangement, for, when
the A. & B. Co., purchases from
sailors, soldiers, naval employees,
tourists Or what not" they are
aiding these parties to take ''the
very bread and butter from the
fishermen. What right" en-
phasized Welch, ''have working
people with incomes to sell fish
to wholesalers when this some
times compels the trade fisher
men to be 'beached.?"

WEIGH said that when the
present union started to organ

"Mr. Maitland Adams has not
agreed to buy fish from only
union men, but every man. at
present, who. works for Mr.. Ad'
ans is a union man"

tives, Felton's market has raised

Il didn't even hear about it

until several days later that l

ceived a bill for il"
The paint was bought on three
different occasions from the
hardware store owned by the

In Germ an,
(By Assocfated Pressl

BERLIN, Aug. 24.-Since Adolf
Hitler's disappearance, seven
Germans, presumed to have gone
insane, have claimed to be him.
The seventh is Ludwig Dahl,
who said today he, as the great

of seven men to rule the world.
Dahl said that he had appoint
ed President Truman minister of

When he was taken to a hos

wants only to be recognized.
There will be no violence, and
no pickets are allowed to speak
to anyone except those they
might know and then only to
say HELLO or give them hand
greeting. This dispute will be
handled peacefully and order
ly.' We are not knocking Felton's
business, and we will not ever
tell anyone not to patronize the
A. & B. Company. But we are
asking cooperation from the peo-
pie of Key West"
The local union has. about 100
members and there are only 20
non-union members. In Miami,
WEIGH said, the wholesalers buy
100 per cent from union fisher
men. The only fishermen who
are non-union are a few ped
oilers who catch and sell their
own fish, but never do whole
salers buy from them.
Raised Price
Mr.. Rauth, OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
of the Fishermen's and Seafood

here to get the price of 20 cents
for crawfish from local whole
salers, but because the commod-
ity became a glut on the market,

stead of the 20 cents, and even
on that score, WEIGH stated, Nor

will not break the picket lines.
That is, they will not pick up or
deliver while the dispute is rag

to the transportation company,
as they have a written agree
