. ...":..." i
In his telegram to the electrical
workers Mr. Donovan advised member
to return to work, with the assurance
that if demands are not granted an
other walkout may be arranged. Some
of the workers expressed the view
that latest developments will be found
a ruse to get strikers back to work
until such time as telephones pass out
of government control, after which the
companies will ba free to take such
action ii theydeem proper. This view
was not general among the men.
The telephone employes, according to
Instructions from San Francisco, are to
return to work under the scale guaran
teeing a minimum of IS per day for men
and tit per week for girls, which scale
became effective June IS, and was an
nounced here the day the operators left
their switchboards. Electrical workers
art not informed as to re-classification
of men, they said yesterday, but
said they were satisfied the reclassifi
cation, would not cause any of their
number to work for less than per
day.
General Confidence Felt.
The fact that the two western" dele
gates to the Washington conference
had been ordered to stop off at Spring
field. III., en route has led to the belief
here that retroactive pay and other de
mands are assured.
That the feeling of the workers Is
prevalent in other quarters is shown
by a letter from W. K. Woodward,
chairman . of the state conciliation
board, to Governor Olcott. expressing
thanks for prompt action taken in re
sponse to appeals made by the board.
It says:'
"Thanks are due you fofyour very
prompt action in the matter of the
telephone strike. The morning paper
brings news of a form of adjustment
which. If true, does not in any way ap
peal to my persona V conception of the
rights of the men and women who are
out. However, resumption of work, even
under unsatisfactory conditions, may
lead to later and better consideration."
Owine to the sudden turn of events.
the mass meeting that was to have been
held in central library hall last night
was postponed Indefinitely.

Better Dentistry
Without Pain
Peer of pain Is one -of the chief reasons for nealect of teeth. Many
people become positively 111 worrying about future dental operations;
others are 111 after operations, due to shock and exhaustion on account of
pain.
Tills can all be avoided by means of rrerve blocking (the method advo
cated by leading authorities). For example, by two simple injections we
are enabled to extract, crown, fill or treat for pyorrhea all teeth In the
entire lower Jaw with perfect comfort. By eliminating palm from pyor
rhea, (the scourge that causes the loss of more than half the teeth that
are lost) can be successfully treated, cavities properly prepared, teeth
can be ground for crowns without killing nerves; thus giving our
patients tjelter dentistry and comfort.
We give special attention to nerve blocking, sanitary crown and
bridge work and pyorrhea.
