A committee of three men from Shelton, Washington, claim ing to represent 22 Washington state locals of the Sawmill and Timber Workers union, held a meeting Monday night in the Masonic hall for the purpose of arousing sentiment among the union men gaainst Abe W. Muir, vice-president of the carpenters and joiners union who has been at the head of the lumber strike. The objection to Muir, they as serted. was that he had effected the. Longview settlement without obligating the companies to rec ognize the union, a vital point in the dispute, and they urged that he he required to sever his connection with the timber workers union. They denied that the Washington locals which re pudiated the settlement are hold ing out for 75 cents an hour minimum wage, which they ad mitted is imposs'' !e under pro- eent conditions.
