D. {. Glaciers May Strike
For 22-Cent Wage Raise

Union glaciers in the District

day unless they get 221a cents
per hour wage increase.
The workers are 200 members

tractors have offered a raise of
S cents, plus a contribution of
512 cents per hours to union
welfare fund.
Alfred S. Troutman, union bust
ness representative, said today the
offer is unsatisfactory. He said
his men will walk out Tuesday

pires, unless management does
better.
He said union wages in 1850
were $225 per hour; in 1851, $2.35
per hour; now. $3.50.
I'VE consider this very low in
relation to the pay of other build

skill than glaciers" Mr.. TroutmaN
said.

tiators meet again at 1880 pm.
Thursday in the Tariff Commits

Eisenhower Slated
To Give Major Talk
|At Richmond Friday
By the Associated Press

RICHMOND, Va, Sept. %. -
Virginia, rarely courted in presi-
Dental campaigns, will entertain
her second major candidate within
a week when Gen. Eisenhower
comes calling on Friday.
The general, as the Democrats
Gov. Stevenson did last Saturday,
will deliver a major speech in
Richmond.
The Republican nominee is
slated to make brief campaign
chats in Roanoke. Lynchburg and
Petersburg from the rear platform
iof train during his visit.
His Richmond speech will be
delivered from the steps OF the
State Capitol building about 9 pm.
Gen. Eisenhower will be ac-
companied by hic wife, Mamie,
Gov. Sherman Adams Of New
Hampshire and Republican Ma
tional Chairman Arthur Summer
field Of Michigan.
It hasn't been disclosed what
theme the general win tackle in
his Richmond address. Gov. Ste
venson chose the occasion to line
up solidly behind the Democrats
stand favoring Federal civil rights
legislation.
Gen. Eisenhower has said previ-
ously he leans toward State action
to curb civil rights inequities.
State G. o. p. Chairman Floyd
Landreth of Galax said he didn't
think Gov. Stevenson improved
his chances of carrying Virginia
by his Richmond address. His
attitude on civil rights is not ac-
ceptable to the South's way Of
thinking" said Mr.. Landreth.

Mediators Hope
ToAvert Strike
Al Hotels Today
Lust-Minute PurIey
Planned in Attempt
To Break Deadlock

Federal mediatorS will make
last-minute efforts today to break
the deadlocked negotiations be-
tween management and employees
of % Of Washington's largest
hotels.
Clyde M. Mills, assistant direc-
tor of the Federal Cancellation
Service, has called a meeting for
early afternoon at the Shoreham
between hotel spokesman and
AFL officials representing 5000
workers.
Strike Appears Inevitable.
Likelihood of a strike, however,
appeared inevitable.
Mr.. Mills said, There is a
chance a strike may be averted,
but it is a slim one"
A similar pessimiStic outlook
was also expressed by Samuel
Levine, general counsel for the
hotel workers union.
In the event of a deadlock at
today's session, Mr.. Levine de-
clared:
Our members are ready to walk
out the instant their union Off
cials advise them there is no hope
Of attaining an agreement"
Averted at Last Minute.
Originally scheduled for 1901
am. Saturday, the strike was
averted at the last minute after
Federal Cancellation Chief Cyrus
Ching made a personal appeal to
the employees to hold off tempo
rarily.
Further complicating the pic
ture that will cripple the hotels
If the workers walk off their jobs
is a promise by Claude Brown,
business agent for Local 80, Inter-
national Union Of Operating En-
gineerS. AFL.
- The union agent has assured
the cooks and walters his group
will observe all picket lines should
a strike occur.
Local SO members operate all
hotel power plants, air condition
ing units, boilers and refrigerat-
ing plants. In the last hotel
strike in 1916 these workers re-
manned at their posts.
The last negotiating session
which lasted from 2:15 pm. Sat-
urday until 7:30 am. yesterday re-
suited in a deadlock.
Reports No Progress.
At it's conclusion, Joseph c. Nc
Garraghy, Hotel Association coun-
sci, reported that absolutely no
progress" has been made. He
added he saw little chance for a
strike being averted.
Principal demand of the en-
ployes is a 10 per cent increase
over the present 1913 cents an
hour, or total of $38.12 for a
48-hour work week.
The hotel men have offered to
keep the present contract in force
and to give cooks time and a half
for the sixth day worked. The
union asks time and a half for
the sixth day and double time for
those cooks working a seventh
day in one week.
Also sought by the union is a
closed shop for both walters and
co0kS.
