Agreement Than on Walkout Day.
Strikers and company marked tlm
yesterday in the contest which was
launched Just two weeks ago and which
has seriously Impaired the service of
the lines of the Pacific Telephone
Teiegraph company, not only in Port'
land and Oregon, but throughout the
coast district. So far as solutions of
the situation are concerned, settlemen
f the strike, which is for higher
wages, retroactive pay and Improved
working conditions. Is as distant as It
was on the opening day of the walk
out.
Suggestions that the telephone
patrons, who complain that the Ira
paired service has resulted In business
loss and personal Incoventence. demand
rebates of tolls and rental from the
company, meet with no favor in offi
cial circles of the corporation, where
It Is maintained that the service has
been kept up to at least a passable
standard. Striking operators and line
men have started a propaganda for the
rebate, asking their friends to de
mand It.

Lowrr, business agent of the electrical
workers, "and from the information
a-athered bv ua. the Dhona service is
getting worse every day. It is In
creasingly difficult to put a call
through at .most periods of the day
and anything lik the old orderly
transaction of telephone business has
practically ceased to exist. We are of
the opinion snd strongly urge, that
telephone users are Justified In re

That the company has not yet
Issued Instructions on the matter of
rebates and that local officials ire

of W. J. Phillips, commercial superintendent.
At Sain Francisco, according to ad
vices received by the strike committee,
the Joint strike board Is now In ses

the aoetttic refusal which will be
handed Burleson's suggestion that
the wtrej control board be permitted to
arbitrate the iasues between employes
and cowpanr.
The strikers sre ss one In their dec
Juration that such a course Is not
all to their liking. They hsve sug
rested that an arbitration board named
by either President w llson or Secre
tary of Labor " llson would ba ac
ceptable to them.
