Filed by Mrs. UIine

A maintenance suit by Mrs. Caro-
line Uline, SO, of Toledo, Ohio, today
asked District Court to restrain
Nigel j. (Mike) Uline, owner of the
ice firm and arena, temporarily from

here and instituting divorce action
against her in another Jurisdiction.
Mrs. Uline, in a suit filed through

sonable" maintenance and support.

married In June, 1895, and have
two adult children. It claimed Mr..
U1ine deserted her about 1890 and
moved to Washington. It also was
charged that Mr.. Uline, whose age
was given as "over r." has Inter
mittently made small remittances
averaging $50 q week and recently
gave her check for a thousand
dollars" all of which was said to
be inadequate for her maintenance.
She estimated his wealth to be
over q million dollars.
According to the suit, Mr.. Uline
threatens to dispose Of all OF his
holdings and institute divorce pro-
ceedings in "some foreign jurisdic-
ton" 81
Frederick j. Ball, attorney for Mr..
Uline, said he had no knowledge
Of the suit, but that Mr.. Uline does
not contemplate disposing Of his
holdings. Mr.. U1ine is Ill, the
attorney said, and not available for
comment.

mediate efforts to resolve 40 ma ajoI
disputes between the company and
the union and other disputes de-
pending thereon"

The telephone strike involves COM
paaies OF the Bell System and unions
afiliated with the National Fedora
tion OF Telephone Workers. In
washington, the parties are the
District Federation Of Telephone
Workers maintenance and ofhce
employes), the washington Tele-
phone Trafic Union toperators)
and the Chesapeake and Potomac
Telephone Co.
These are the principal points at
issue:
WageS-
The unions: A basic general wage
increase Of $12 per week is de-
manded. It is argued the boost
Is justified by cost-of- Living In
creases and 'sinequities" between
wages Of telephone workers and
those in other industries. Removal
Of area differentials is demanded
to bring all wages in the Bell
System up to the highest level
found anywhere In the system.
The company: The increase Is not
justified at this time, it is con-
tended, since a company survey
of wages paid for comparable
work in other industries showed
the company was in line with the
community wage pattern. As q
regulated public utility, 1t argues
it should not be required to take
the lead in establishing new
pattern. For the same reason, 1t
contends the area differentials are
justified.
Arbitration
The unions: Nation wide arbitration
Of all matters In dispute has been
proposed.

peared before a Senate appropria-
tions subcommittee which Is re-
viewing $13,714,000 Of reductions
made in the 31,850,700 budget

voted the full amount, ST., ,728, 900,
for grants to States in the fiscal
year that begins July /, but had
approved only 100000 for admins
tration of the employment service.
He asked the Senate to restore $3,-

curtailed or restricted. He men
toned these:

tary of the Veterans Employment
