STRIKE HINDERED
New York, June 30 (U.PJ
Distribution of five New York
Sunday newspapers with con
bined circulation of approxi.
mately 8,000,000 was virtually
halted tonight by a strike of
aome 1,700 members of the
Newspaper and Mail Deliverers
union, an Independent organiza
tion. The strike had not been
scheduled to begin until 12:01
a. m.; tomorrow but most work
ers who normally report at 4
p. m. telephoned they were
"sick." This dashed the hopes
of publishers who had set their
press times ahead in order to get
early editions to newstands be
fore the strike deadline.
The strike, stemming from
differences with the New York
Publishers Association in nego
tiations for a new contract, was
called after voting yesterday in
which 1,848 of 1,693 union mem
bers balloted in favor of such
action. The voting was super
vised by the National Labor Re
lations Board.
The Publishers Association
claimed that the strike, called
despite a War Labor Board di
rective that the current contract
should remain in force until a
new one was reached, was Ille
gal in the first place and became
"contemptuously illegal" when
the union failed to observe the
strike deadline.

Alfalfa Containing
Phosphorous Found
Preferred By Cows
East Lansing, Mich., (U.R)
Soil chemists at Michigan State
College have discovered that
phosphorous in alfalfa is the
cream in the coffee for Elsie, the
cow.
.Four and a half years of tests
on 7S0 Michigan farms showed
that cows, almost without ex
ception, chose to graze on phosphorous-treated
clover and al
falfa fields, to the neglect of the
same roughage grown on un
treated areas.
In most instances, researchers
found, addition of phosphorus to
the soil, increased grair yields
and enriched clover meadows to
such an extent that from 10 to
30 per cent more livestock could
be supported on the same acre

has been no official confirmation

to see how it could have oc
curred otherwise.
