PACKERS' STRIKE HALTS OPERATION AT 4 FRUIT SHEDS (Continued rrom Page One.) dsmsge for some time, allowing time for the packing housea and the pack era to come to an agreement. In the four houses affected only the packera truck, the floor help and sorters re maining on duty. There was no violence, and police were not called in, although they ad mitted that any attempt to destroy packing plant property would be dealt with summarily. Packing house owners and manager met hastily this afternoon to discuss the situation and arrive t some agreement. This committee had not reached a decision thla afternoon. It waa understood that a few were for capitulation to the one cent booat. while many other! were In favor of cannery shipments as way out of the dilemma if the strike should be come general. Reter said this afternoon: "I do not think thla walk-out waa organized by local help, who realise the situation. Outsiders, who signed up at the an nounced wage scale and then, under the impression that they had the growers and shippers "over barrel." started the strike In hopes of cashing In on that advantage. My prediction is that the beginning of stich 4 strike will also be the end when the work ers resltze the true situation. Any loss occasioned by labor trouble will have to be borne by tho grower, since the shippers simply can't atand It." t It was roughly estimated thla after noon, that approximately SO packers hed Joined In the walk-out: the ten returning to duty at the Root plant reduced that number to 70, but twice that many other workers would he affected If the plants were forced to remain closed. Pickers also would be thrown out of work If the fruit, rapidly piling up on the shed docks, were not handled Immediately, since fruit on the dock GET HIM! With Ply-Tox.
