Packers Strike With
par!ey on Wednesda,
BY the Associated Press

The Government will try to end
the 26-day-old CIO meat strike
across the bargaining table-start-
ing next Wednesday-instead of by
a court order.
President Truman made that
decision yesterday after studying
the report of a three-man Board of
Inquiry explaining the wage dispute.
The meat strike is the third case
in which Mr.. Truman has received
ct-flnding reports under the ma
tiona emergency provision of the
Taft Hartley Act. In the other two

next step and got Federal, Court
injunctions against the walkouts.
But In the meat case he stayed
out Of court-at least for the time
being-and directed the Federal
Mediation and Cancellation Service
to sponsor further negotiations.
All Expected to Accept.
Last night this agency called a
bargaining session for Wednesday
morning in Chicago. The CIO
packinghouse workers and the four
biggest companies, Swift, Armour,
Cudahy and Wilson, were asked to
be there.
The meat-packers' union and
Swift and Armour promptly &C
cepted. James J. Spillane, Chicago
regional director Of the service, said
here he. is sure all parties will be on
hand.
The dispute began when the union
demanded a raise of. 20 cents an

most exhaustive detail the clashing
methods used by both parties In
figuring how much OF wage raise
ought to be granted.
The board said the companies g.
cent offer was designed to makeup
for the rise in living costs reported
by the Bureau of Labor Statistics
since the last previous wage increase
in June, 1947. The board said the
offer was a substantial" one, and
was adequate" for that purpose.
But the union approached the
matter from another angle. It also
used the Bureau of Labor Statistics,
but took a different set of figures.
The union based its 29-cent de-
mand on the bureaus "city workers
family budget" The union argued
that packing house workers should
have not only enough to keep up
with rising prices, but enough to
raise their standard Of living to the
levels in the family budget" It
said most of the workers, even with

of the budget" but such . raise
would be q step In the right direc-
ton.
The union later reduced its de-
mand to 231a cents, then 10, and
finally ly-according to the board
showed "at least an interest" in
taking 16 cents.
The board did not try to say
which measuring standards are
right and which are wrong.

There have been no bargaining
sessions since the President created
the National Emergency Inquiry
Board, with Nathan p. Feinsinger
as chairman, on March IS.
Strike Began March 16.
The strike started the next day,
March is. Mr.. Feinsinger says be-
tween 10000 and 10000 persons are
out. Industry sources say the strike
has affected only Is per cent Of
the normal meat production of the
four major companies.
Mr.. Truman didn't say whether
he had changed his mind about the
strikes being a national emergency.
But Informed Government
official told a reporter the strike has
not turned out to be as serious as
the Government first expected.
He added. however, that it still
may imperil the national health or
safety, and that the President still
has the authority to ask for an 30
day injunction later If the stoppage
continues too long.

Ticket Buying
Rush to Avoid
Increase Monday
Expected This Week

Advance buying of railroad
tickets to avoid higher passenger
fares effective Monday has boosted
business this week as much as Is
per cent on some lines here, Union
Station and company agents re-
ported today.
While no rush" has yet been ex-
perienced at Washington ticket
windows and counters, officials said
they expect steadily larger numbers
of prospective travellers to arrange
for future transportation before the
end of this week.
Fare increases averaging II per
cent were granted July to rail-
roads serving areas east of Chicago
and north of the Ohio and Potomac
Rivers. One-way coach fares will
go up Monday from az to 3 cents a
mile, and basic sleeping and parlor
car rates will be 4 instead of 3h
cents a mile.
Good for Stated Period.
Railroad company officials ex-
planned today that tickets purchased
at the current rates before July 10
wi be good for the duration of the
ticket" In most instances that is
for 80 days. This applies to sleeping
car as well as coach tickets.
A Pennsylvania Railroad repre-
sentative reported a slight but not
unusual increase in his company s
ticket sales here since announce
ment of the scheduled fare in
creases. The bulk of buying at this
time of the year is for New Eng
land vacation points but it has
been "a general practice" this sum-
mer, as in the past, for travellers to
buy their tickets well in advance,
he said.
The New Haven Railroad re-
ceiyed 10 per cent passenger fare
increase authorization from the
Interstate Commerce Commission
last year. Under the July 8 order
affecting Eastern railroads, it will
increase its fares only another
per cent. It's ticket sales here were
described as normal for This time
of the year.
Baltimore g. Ohio Railroad offices
have had a considerable" increase
in ticket sales this week, after max
ing allowance for Democratic Ma
tional Convention travel. A COM
pany ofhcial estimated the increase
at about IS per cent. He attributed
this largely to advance buying be-
fore the July 10 dea6line.
