1 VOL.V. NO. 196. ATLANTA, GA., MONDAY, FEBRUARY ltL1907. STRIKE FEVER ATTACKS TWO GROUPS OF GIRLS Standard ’Phone Op- • erators Kick On Monitor. have objections TO NEW MONITOR NINE WAITER GIRLS WILL JUMP THEIR JOB Efforts to Arbitrate Prove l' na vailing—Service Crippled. Fourteen "hello" glrla of the day force of ih» Atlanta Telephone and Tele* graph company walked out on atrlke M»Aday morning at 11 o'clock because of objection to Mlaa Ollle Johnson, monitor-in the exchange. The .trike followed the presentation 10 President C. J. Blmmone, of the tele phone company, of an unsuccessful pe tition nuking for the femoral of Mlaa Johnson. In their ultimatum to the president the fourteen gtris declared that If the monitor was not removed front Iter position by 10 o'clock Monday morning they would walk out In a body. When the hour of 10 arrived. Miss John.on was attending to her duties as u.uat nnd the telephone girls remained ' duty. at their poet of duty. At 11 o'clock, however, when tbs relief shift came on duty, the fourteen complainants walked vlth the announce- of the building wl mem that they were out until Miss Johnson waa "Bred." Pre.ldent Simmons In a alatemant to The Georgian, said there waa abso lutely no ground for the complaint of the girls end declared he had found no aood reason to remove Mies Johnson. Hr .aid the strikers had acted hastily and. without proper consideration, and also expressed a willingness to confer sith the girls In regard to a settlement. Objection to Monitor. In the petition the girls object to Miss Johnson because she waa former ly an operator for the Bell Telephone Company and also because the posi tion of monitor waa not given to one of the older operators of the Atlanta m-hange. The strikers further de clare. although this is not stated In the pttltlon, that Miss Johnson has shown partiality among the - operators and. that this has engendered bitter feeling. The duty df the monitor Is to keep tab »n the operators, to see that they do not engage~lH Heedless coureiea- tlon. and to see that their duties are properly performed. Miss Johnaon has been " Ith the Atlanta Company for the test Mx months, and the officials as insert that her work has given perfect ntl.fact Ion. The etrikera declare the operators went not treated right by the company, when It gave thla Job to an outsider Instead of promoting one of Its o»n operators. I'rc.ident Simmons, when asked ahon the effect of the strike, said: The service of the company has not *! nc S n !.* d at ,he alk '*ed treatment re ceived by one of their number, nine kret, y ..

Miss Mac Donald said, the head waltreas. Just before dinner, but having consideration for the patrons of the place, ahe said they decided to wait until Monday aft ernoon. The cause of thla determination la Mlaa May Hansford, a pretty Chicago girl, who, the other girls claim, waa not treated right by a couple of Greeks in- tcrcit^d In the place. "I told one of them." said Miss Mac Donald. white her eyes flashed Are. "that May was doing all right and If he had any kick coming to come to me. But he was always butting In and find ing fault with the girls and talked so to May that ahe stood at the caibltr'j desk and cried. He tried to hand me ■ome of hla talk and I threw a rag In bla face. “I used to work behind the counter and I know how these girls have to hustle. And you know American girls hate to have a foreigner butting In and calling them down before a crowd of customers. May Is a good girl and It’s not right to treat her thla way." “And,'' broke In Mlaa Hansford, as ahe wiped the tears from her ayes, "1 hadn't done a thing. I was working Just as hard as I cculd and he called me down." "But Mr. Moore la all right." said both of the girls at ones. "Ha Is an other partner, but he has always been very considerate of ua." At 1:10 o'clock the girls wars eating thalr dinner and Greek boys wars be hind the counter*. The girls declared they ware going to walk out—nine of them there are—and get Jobs else- wbars.

Danne said further that Anderson didn't deliver the goods purchased over the wire In Cincinnati unless the pur chaser a«ked for them, and that stuff was bought and sold nn margins. It was also brought out by Solicitor Gen eral Hill that the member* of th* ex change paid dues of one dollar n month and that there were about 7» or so member*.
