0'Donneh Employees
To Hear Strike Report

Employees of the two O'Donnell's
Restaurants in the 1900 block OF
E street NV. will meet at midnight
to hear a final report on negotia-
tions with the management over
wages and maintenance of union
membership proposal.
The meeting will take place in the
Offices of Local All of the Cafe
terra and Restaurant Workers (CIO)
at 1015 M street NV.
Richard A. Bancroft, president of
the local, said the restaurant en-
ployes had authorized the negotiat-
ing committee to call strike and
set a date for it. A strike notice
was filed in December under the
Smith, Connally Act, he said.
Mr.. Bancroft said the union orig
inally had asked a 65-cent-an-h hour
minimum, later reducing its de-
mands to go cents. The company
he asserted, had maintained an offer
of 48 cents.
The union official said about half
the company's 800 employees would
be affected by an increase in the
minimum scale, and graduated in
creases have been sought for the
other half.
T.. A. ODonnell, head of the res
taurant concern, authorized dis
tribution Of a circular among his
employees which charged the union
had insisted upon q clause in its
proposed contract providing for
union dues deductions from the pay
of employees belonging to the union
This, he said, was the major point
Of difference between the union and
management.

She helped her to send q telegram

Mrs. Norton had no money for her
self and children now that Mr..
Norton,s disability pension would be
stopped. From funds provided for
such purposes, the worker was able
to advance enough money for Inn
mediate needs.
This case, one of the many last
year, is not unusual to the Red
Cross worker. Every day the Home
Service Once, which is in the base
ment of the Corcoran Gallery OF
Art, receives calls from others who
have similar kilograms, from wives
OF hospitalized servicemen and from
families of men who are still In the
armed forces. Sometimes it is con-
sultation and guidance that Is
needed. Often it Is emergency f1nan-
ciAl assistance. 4

Almost half Of the Home Service
budget Of about 100000 goes for

Miss Eulene Hawkins, director OF
the service. Home Service receives
almost half OF the $787, $50 which
has been set as the Metropolitan
Areas goal in the Red Cross fund
drive which viii continue through
this month.
Miss Hawkins said during last jan
uary alone 800 veterans and service
men or their families received total
Of $15.067. She explained funds are
given on the basis Of need for such
essential things as food, shelter,
clothing and household utilities. As
sistance is for a temporary period
only, while a man or his family is
awaiting the first Government disa-
bility or death benefits and when
such payments are delayed or inter-
r,lpted. she pointed out.
