Chicago Stock Yards Tied Up By CIO Strike Chicago, Nov. 21 0P Livestock trading at the stockyards was halted today by a strike called by the CIO packing house workers union against the Union Stock Yards and Transit company. Police Capt. John Prendergast, who assigned 100 policemen to spe cial duty at the yards, reported about 175 stock handlers had refused to go to work. He said the strike was for higher wages and vacations. A spokesman for the company said no grievances had been submitted by the workmen. The livestock handlers union, an AFL affiliate, was not participating. In previous years there have been similar strikes called shortly before the International Livestock Exposi tion, which opens at the yards Sat urday. Commission house employes pen ned livestock and major packers operated hog and sheep slaughter ing departments on direct ship ments only. Cattle killing virtually was at a standstill and no quota tlons were available. A statement Issued by the packing workers' organization committee ov er the signatures of Hank Johnson assistant national director, and Herb March, organizer, charged the Stock Yards and Transit company with "an increasingly vicious campaign of terror. "The present tie-up is the out growth of the company's refusal to bargain in good faith," the state ment said In part "The direct pro vocation leading to the stoppage was: "First, the slugging of Ben Brown, the local's president, on company property when he was going about his duties as feedman. The statement charged the local's office was riddled with bullets and bombed since bargaining negotia tions were begun with the company. O. T. Henkle, vice-president and general manager of the Union Stock yards and Transit company, said the union statement about a "campaign of terror" was "outrageous" and "not true." Henkle also denied the company had refused to bargain, asserting negotiations had been In progress until yesterday.

Gree ley, secretary-manager of the West Coast Lumbermen's association, said today. He asserted the only conclusion that can be reached from study of the pacts was that lumbering had suffered a definite loss. The agreement did not open the door of the British market "by even a crack" for the great bulk of lumber used In housing and every day construction which Is less than 11 Inches wide. -he said. "The 'lumber concession' by the United Kingdom Is 90 per cent a paper concession only," Greeley continued. "It may enable Ameri can exporters to sell a little more freely in England the high grade clear and industrial Items which are of short supply In British Co lumbia; and they may get a little higher price for what they sell. That Is all. The agreement does not make the American west coast sawmill competitive with the British Co lumbia sawmill In the English mar ket. It cannot restore any worth while volume of trade. It does break down the barrier of preferen tial tariffs." He said Canada, In practical terms, "stands to gain more real trade in the United States than the west coast will gain in Eng land."

P. Wing, secretary of the California Wool Growers association, said today the state's sheepmen were uncertain what, if any, effect the actual recent signing of the British-American trade agreement would have on their market. This was because, he said, the agreement was discounted in ad vance during the spring market a market marked, he said, by a drop in purchases and a fall in prices caused by fear on the part of man ufacturers of tariff reductions in the agreement. He said further reper cussions would develop only after there had been time for reflection of wholesale and retail trade condi tions.
