sencd.
"The City Club has determined that,
so far as lies in its power, every one
shall bo consulted before the candidates
enter the field.
"Who is your choice for Mayor?"
"We ask this question of you, and at
the same moment we nre asking it of
10,000 other citizens; citizens of all
ranks and degrees, all trades and pro
fessions, all denominations nnd be
liefs." Directions for answering are given,

Slncp the annual meeting last June
the city committc has had no accred
ited rcpresrntathrs from six wnrds in
the city which arc controlled by the

Factional fights for control were
were waged in each one of these wards.
The Vnre forces refused to recognize the
Penrose representatives from such wards
and rcfrired the matter to a contest
committee.
This committee never decided the con

to a representative from each faction
in the contested wards.
The contested wards are the Third,
Fifth, Ninth, Tenth, Twenty-fourth
andThiity-eighth. Magistrate William
F, Campbell, Penrose follower, was

expected that each of the sK wards will
re-elect Penrose followers to the central
committer.

Hdward M. Cooke, vice president and
genernl manager of the Keystone Tele-i
phone Company, today declared thnt
three men nnd three girls who had quit
the company's service In sjmpathy with
discharged emplojcs, had been rein
stated. Otherwise, Mr. Cook said, the
situation Is unchnnged.
No conference between officials of the
company and strikers or their sympa
thizers took place today, nor had such
meetings been arranged definltelj, snid
Mr. Cook. "I met Mrs. Clifford Pin
(hot and Mrs. Raymond Rubins, presi
dent of the Natlonnl Woman's Trade
Villon League, yesterday, "' Mr, Cook
explained.
"Wo went oer trie situation," ho
said, "and the ladles left with the con
viction that their services hnd been en
listed through n misunderstanding. I
told them that we would at nnjtime
treat with our cinplnjcs, including those
on strike, but would not meet nn com
mittees as representing dischalged oper
atives. If nny of the latter come here
I will take up their case as indiwduals
and do nil that I can tn make satisfac
tory adjustment, but the lompnny will
not recogni7e any union or outside in
fluence in n matter that concerns its
relations with individual emplojcs or
former employes.
"I think tho ladies were satisfied thnt
the three operators nnd four men whose
discharge was the basis of the trouble,
had been properly dismissed.
"I hnve gone over the matter thor
oughly and find that these seven oni
plojes were discharged for inefficiency
thnt was clearly shown. If nny of
them does not think so 1 nm willing
to meet them singly or a committee of
them nnd go over their cases with
them. There has been n misunder
standing oer tho situation. I hope to
bring about nn adjustment shortly."
About thirtj girls nnd sixty men In
the entire Kejstone district nre on
strike, according to Mr. Cook. The
discharged emplojcs Included three
operators from the Race exchange, two
men from the installation und two from
the maintenance departments.
The leaders nt the strike assert they
have the Keystone sjstcm in several
branch exchanges pretty well tied up.
1000 STRIKE AT SHIPYARD
Pusey & Jones Employes to Remain
Out, They Say
About 1000 employes of the Pusey A:
Jones shipbuilding plnnt at filoucc-ter,
who started a sympathy strike yester
day, hae decided to remain out jntil
after a union meeting on Monday light.
This decision followed a men' nir in
Gloucester City Hall, last niht. nt
which the strikers were con-soled to
nvoid disorder and to remain a ay from ,
iiii- gores oi inc pinni.
A committee representing the twenty
eight counters whose walkout started the
strike, conferred with yard officiuls, but
were told that the company would nd
herc strictly to the sixt -eight cents
nn hour scale ndopted by the Mucy
board. The strikers are piece work
ers and say this scale is unfair. The
jard Is being operated under control of
the United States shipping board.
