Negotiations for an initial contract first went on the rocks last October, and the Trainmen issued a strike order. However, the negotiators resumed their seats, the union asking for a uniform contract covering all eight lines involved, the company holding out for wage differentials between the various lines. The unions also wanted a closed shop and wages for drivers boosted from around 3½? per mile to 5?, with a guarantee of 200 miles per day ($11). Last week the company flatly and finally turned down the demands, and the drivers climbed...
...French Republic today the Minister of the Interior, commanding the police and charged with maintaining public order, has the beard of a bushy Bolshevik and the name Rene Marx Dormoy. The beard is of Socialist Dormoy's own choosing but, while M. Dormoy says that he stands for "militant Marxism," he regrets that his Socialist father went so far as to tag him "Marx" after Karl Marx.

...recognize the union as the only bargaining agent of union members working in the University, which include supposedly nine-tenths of the total number employed. From the fact that officials are still negotiating with the local organizer, it can be rightly surmised that they desire a compromise in short order. What the terms of that compromise will be is a matter of speculation. As far as the union is concerned, it would probably accept wage scales only slightly higher than present rates providing that the University would grant a closed shop...
