In the meantime the three mills have now been completely closed down for the past three days. The number taking part in the strike is estimated at 200 «The three â€"companies affected by theo walkout are the Feldman Timber Comâ€" pany, the Rudoiphâ€"McChesney Lumber Company and the Fesserton Luimber Company. Demanding a raise of wages from 27% cents to 40 cents an hour, the junion gave the companies until Monday night to enter into negotiaâ€" tions. The mill owners refused to ii.;â€" cuss the question but intimated that they were willing to continue payinz 21% cents an hour. This was refused by the union and a strike went into effect Tuesday morning. Since that time strong picket lines have surroundâ€" ed the three mills and prevented any shipments of lumber being made sinceo the strike began. No strike was called in the mill of A. E. Wicks and Company. It was reâ€" ported that this firm was paying in exâ€" cess of the previous minimum of 27‘% cents an hour but inquiry from the manager, Mr. Humphries, yesterday, reâ€" vealed that the Wicks company also has a minimum of 27% cents.

The next standing will he shown in Monday‘s issue of The Porcupine Advance in The Porcupine Advance Prize Subscription Campaign or suggest an] had not been but pointed ou At the strikers‘ meetling last night, many individuals voiced the opinion that the union should hold out for their full demands of forty cents an hour,. Others suggested that it might be betâ€" ter to take the offer and strengthen the union in order that additional conâ€" cessions might be gained in the future. About forty of the men present were called out for picket duty and despite a lengthy debate that lasted until weall after midnight, no vote was taken. The general opinion of the strikers seemed to be however that the offer of the mill owners should not be accepted. At last night‘s meeting the offictals of the union guardedly but suggested that the strikers accept the offer of the companies and return to work. They pointed out that the fact the mill owners had made an offer was a victory in itself. In suggesting that the offer be taken, the men were asked to go back and do everything possible to increase the strength of the union so that in the future the problem of wages could be successfully met. The decision of the mill owners to Increase the minimum wage to thirty cents an hour was made at a joint meeting with union officials and O. C. Jenette, of the Ontario Department of Labour. is showing discrimination in not makâ€" ing the strike general throughout the four mills or not at all.
