bolition of Neutral Hiring
Hall Wanted.
ACQUIESCENCE NOT GIVEN
Employers Decline to Meet With
Longshoremen's Union to
Settle Dispute.
Presentation of demands of Local
38-6, International Longshoremen's
association, which now embraces
men through the grain workers hav
ing: joined since the strike was
started two weeks ago, was made
on employers maintaining cereal
docks yesterday. It is asserted by
the employers that it was the first
act of the kind following the strike.
They did not accord recognition to
demands set forth under the name
of the I. W. W
Talk of a meeting with the men to
discuss tlte demands, reported to
have been sought for .tomorrow, is
discredited by employers, who say
they will meet with certain of their
former employes as individuals but
decline to meet with a delegation
representing the longshoremen's
union. A copy of the demands was
served on the commission of public
docks because of its opration of the
municipal grain elevator, but as the
end sought Is an agreement with the
union, whereas the commission is a
municipal organization ana employs
workers without regard to affilia
tion, its participation is, said not to
be possible.
The demands call for abolition of
the neutral or. employers' hall and
that all men be hired at a hall se
lected and controlled by the "rank
and file" and through the list sys
tem. A base? wage of 80 cents an
hour is included, that being for both
longshoremen and grain handlers,
with 10 cents additional for handling
cement, fertilizer, shovel work, ni
trates, sulphur, creosoted and sub
merged lumber, -coal, raw hides, all
sacked L cargo of - more than 125
pounds in lots of 50 tons or more,
with time and a half for all dam
aged cargo. It is added that sailors
working overtime on cargo be paid
longshoremen's overtime wages.
The longshore scale at the time of
the strike and as- is paid at present
is 80 cents an hour, but longshore
men trucking on docks are paid 70
cents, while the scale for grain han
dlers is 624 cents an hour. The list
of demands, which embraces 13 items
for longshoremen and eight for
grain handlers, is signed by William
Harlbe, J. S. Hamilton, L. B. La
franchi, G. E. Richardson, James
McGivern, C. P. Holgates, Herman
Larsen and James Kenna.
As to the situation on the docks,
employers report daily gains being
made in strengthening their forces.
More cars are being unloaded and in
a few days it is forecast full crews
will be engaged. At the same time
less tonnage is in prospect for United
Kingdom loading. Another vessel
was said to have Deen taken yester
day to load at Vancouver, B. C.
NEGOTIATIONS ARE REFUSED

un adjustment of the strike called
two weeks ago yesterday is set forth j
in a statement issued yesterday over
the signature of H. S. Eaton, man- i
ager of the employers' association,
copies of which were distributed to
men who- are working when hey j
appeared, for their" wages at the neu- I
tral hall in the afternoon. !
The sflUement recounts the start
of the strike and asserts it was
without, notice to the employers and
without demands being presented as
to wages or working conditions; also
that 300 men refused to join in the
movement and that during the ensu
ing two weeks more than 550 men
have been added, the exact number
enrolled up to last night being given
as 873 men. The formation of the
Waterfront Kmployes' Benevolent
and .Relief association before the
strike, which has for its object as
sisting members in time of injury
or sickness, is referred to as open to
til others now at work and that the
employers each month will duplicate
the amounts paid in by members.
Other points touched on are as
follows:
"During the first week of the
strike we worked 31 ships and sailed
17 of them and during the week end-,
ing today we have worked 33 ships
and sailed 20, with four more to sail
today and tomorrow. With the ex
ception of two ships the first day
of the strike every ship has been
working and there has been prac
tically no delay in dispatching any
steamer. We have worked all kinds
of cargoes, including big lumber,
bulk and sacked wheat and general
merchandise, and the employers are
entirely satisfied with the efficiency
secured. They realize that some of
the new men have not had a great
deal of experience but know that
they are willing and anxious to do
their best.
"There have been a lot of false
rumors circulated by the men who
left our employ and to nail these lies
and misleading rumors we wish to
make it clear to our men that the
employers are well satisfied with the
work being done and that the men
who can show, after a fair trial, that
' they can do the work, will be given
permanent employment. There will
be no settlement made with the or
ganizations that pulled this unjust
strike.
i "We propose, as soon as conditions
have become somewhat stabilized,, to
establish a system of joint represen
tation between management and
men, whereby our men will have an
equal voice in their affairs and
whereby we will be able to handle
our own affairs among ourselves
without interference from a bunch
of radicals and trouble-makers on
the outside.

2 BUSINESS BEATS 1921
IN SOME RESPECTS.
Data to Be Presented to Tax Con
' serration Commission To
morrow Morning.
Business handled over municipal
terminals for the first nine monthf
of this year, which is embraced ir
statistics that will be presented to
the tax and conservation commis
sion tomorrow morning in connec
tion with a hearing on budget re
quirements for, the ensuing ; 12
months, was shown to have exceeded
in some particulars that for the en
tire 1921 period.
General freight received at ter
minal No. 1 for nine months this
year amounted to 141,275 tons,. be
sides 3,998.115 feet of lumber, while
for last year the receipts were 138,
591 tons, including lumber. Deliv
eries for the nine-month period were
130,835 tons and 3,561,033 feet of
lumber, and last year total deliv
eries were 144,440 tons.
At terminal No. 2 receipts for nine
months this year were 86,580 tons,
besides 556,620 feet of lumber, and
last year they were 117,541 tons.
Deliveries up to the end of the third
quarter this year were 88,130 tons
and 412,192 feet of lumber, as com
pared 'With 115,116 tons of general
cargo and lumber last year.
At terminal No. 4 the period co'v-
ered this year is credited with re
ceipts of 93,962 tons of general
cargo. 77,483 tons of wheat and
27,793,363 feet of lumber as against
181,775 tons as representing all re
ceipts last year. Deliveries up to
August 31 this year have included
102,165 tons of general, 91,260 tons
of wheat and 29,635,854 feet of lum
ber, whereas all deliveries for last
year were 167,253 tons.
Terminal No. 1 is utilized princi
pally for intercoastal shipments.
and, though the shed space was vir
many doubled less than two months
ago, the conditions the last few
days of the week made it necessary
to noia delivery rigs in line on
North Front street and permit one
to enter only as another was loaded
and driven away. Additional space
is to De arranged by widening the
shed on the original unit, but it is
doubtful if that will suffice for the
overtiow. i

SEATTLE, Wash., Oct.t 2S A new
passenger and freight service from Puget
sound to the east coast of South America,
recently annttunced by the shipping
board, is scheduled to start December
11 with the steamship President Hayes,
A. W. Kinney of A. M. Gillespie. Inc.,
northwest representatives of Swayne &
Hoyt, operators of the service, said to
day. This vessel Is to be followed by
the President Harrison to depart Jai
uary 19, and the Susquehanna in Feb
bruary. The President Hayes and Presi
dent Harrison were formerly operated to
Calcutta and Bombay from San Fran
cisco by the Pacific Mail Steamship com
pany, which relinquished them upon ob
taining assignment of two larger boats.
Each of these vessels has 6000 tons
freight capacity of which 1200 tons Is
insulated space for refrigerator cargo.
Fruits. )sh and milk are regarded as
prospective cargo from Puget sound, and
meats as return freight.
The fact that the seasons in South
and North America are opposite is ex
pected to be a factor in providing cargo
for the insulated space. .
Enforcement of prohibition on shipping
board vessels makes it necessary to put
forth more energetic and intelligent ef
fort to obtain passenger traffic, in the
opinion of R. Stanley Dollar, president
of the Admiral-Oriental line, who went
as far as Victoria on the steamship
President McKinley, which departed
from here today for the orient. In spite
of failure of Americans generally to
patronize their ships in the past, he said,
the vessels in the trans-Pacific passen
ger traffic had made good returns. He
declared that the shipping board and the
Admiral-Oriental line would co-operate
thoroughly in interesting the American
public in traveling in American ships.
The. steamship Jefferson, which ar
rived .here today in tow of the steamer
Medon, is to receive a new tail shaft to

mained with her from before the acci
dent, several thousand cases of salmon

pany, has a large cargo of ore from Cor
