Assum ing that he meant what he sald we are going to seek a conference with him during the afternoon to see if we can reach an agreement. We have every confidence in Mr. Atkinson's honesty of purpose and his fairness and we believe he will yet give the men what they are asking for, which is nothing more than right and just “The men have voted to stand pat until they do get a living wage. The only way this strike can be ended is for the street car company 40 give it to fhem. We are going Lo give them every opportunity to do so.” Mr. Reardon, who also spoke to the men, declined to comment on the ac tion of the union men after receiving instruetions from the international board to return to work in accept ance of the arbitrator's decision. STRIKE CONDEMNED, | All details and questions connected "with the strike of the sgtreet car men were “threshed out” at the session of the directors of the Chamber of Commerce which Mayor Key \_at-i tended as a member of the board. The resolution adopted at the meet ing follows: “Whereas, the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce In its membership of 3.- 400 business men and women repre sents the business and civic inter ests of Atlanta; and “Whereas, the business interests of our city are being vitally and in juriously affected, and the civic in tersets especially, including our rchools, are suffering by reason of | the strike of street car motormen and conductors; and ' “Whereas, in our opinion this S(Nk{!’ is absolutely unwarranted, involv ing ag it does a repudiation by these | gtrikers of their contractual obliga tions and a reunuciation of the prin eciple of voluntary arbitration for which organized labor stands; “Therefore, be it resolved, that we condemn this strike as unwarranted and unfair, and call upon every labor organization in Atlanta to aid i up helding their own principles of free dom of contract and voluntary arbi tration, and urge that these strikers, A Cincinnati Barber Tells How to Make aßemedy for Gray Hair Mr. Frank Harbaugh of Cincinnatt, Ohio, who has heen a barber for more than forty years, recently made the following statement: “Anyone can prepare. a simple mixture at home, at very little cost, that will darken gray hair, and make it soft and glossy.

Association was held Tuesday morn ing at which it was decided to open and close retail stores of the city at their regular hours—9% and 5 o'clock. Heads of some stores were at first convinced that it would be necessary to close earlier, that tne employees could reach home at a reasonable hour after closing. Due to the effi cient methed by whica transportation was furnished in getting employees to and from work, the necessity of clos~ ing earlier has been eliminated. ’ Here's a new way to avoid having 'to walk to and from your work dur ing the strike. It was tried out suc cessfully by a “walker” 1n East Hun ter street Thursday morning. When this man, whose identity was not disclosed, left hime in Bast Hun ter street, he pinned a big placard on his pack, that read. “8 0 B He had gone but a short distance when a passing automobliiist, at tracted by the sign, stopped his car and rendere dthe necessary response to the “8 O 8,” Atlantans are getting better ac quainted through the medium of the street car strike and the “give a lift” custom which has sprung up among Atlanta autoists. Although the good samaritan or “give a lift" plan came into vogue early Wednesday morning on the in dividual initiative of drivers, Jack lewis, vice president of the Atlanta Automobile Agsociation, sought to make the system general by calling on all autoists to be on the look out for walkers. He also called on pedestriuns to exercise the privilege of hailing any passing automobiie with a vaeant seat and asking for a: lift. ‘ ~ MARIETTA, March 11.—Resol|J-‘ tions upholding the company’s side }of the street car strike have been ‘adopted by the Rotary Club of Ma rietta, as follows: “That the Rotary Club go on rec ord as favoring the open shop and as favoring laws declgring strikes on public utilities illegal and re quiring all labor unions to be in corporated under State laws. urther, believing that a fair arbitration has been given the emplovees of the street car eompany and they having declared a strike in the face of this arhbitration, we urge the company to allow thier cars to remain idle un til they are able to operate on an open shop basis. © Further, that we request the governor to accord what ever protection may be needed.” The street car strike furnished As- ‘ lantans with a slight reminder nf’ war time davs when a patade of | big army motor trucks passed | through Whitehall and Peachtree streets early Thursday. The trucks were hauling negro workmen to Camp Gordon. Gov ernment authorities have established a regular truck train transport serv ice. Mayor Key does not appear to be disturbed by the street car strike— in his private capacity, at least. He deellned a dozen offers of a ride| themselves, abide by the result of an arbitration duly entered into, and in the interest of Atlanta as Atlantans they return to their post of duty.” MAYOR OPPOSES STRIKE. | Condemnation of the action of the ' street car workers in going out on strike was unanimous at the session. ’Mnyo.- Key said he had told the men they had made a mistake and haa offered to serve as best he could in persuading them to return to work. ~ Mavor Ke ysaid he wanted to hear expressions from all the directors on the situation and after he had heard talks by President lugene R, Black, E. P. Mcßurney, W. O, Foote, Charles T. Nunnally, R. K. Rambo, J. K. Orr and Forrest Adair he offered his plan to solve the question. 'he mayor said that in his opin jon the whole matter should be sub mitted to a commission composed of Atlanta ecitizena that he would name. He said the case should be settled on its merits and that all details en tering into the dispute should be considered. He sald the question of what the mén should receive, the question of how mueh the company question of increasing the fare should was able to pay the men and the he submitted to this commisstan and that the commission should have au thority to examine the books of the company to ascertain all the facts in the case “The men shoeuld accept the arbi tration board report and return to work. This commission could then go into the case and settle it on its merits,” he =aid. Forrest Adair made a short speach in which he said the suggestion of the mayor is impossible as the yom pany should not be askel to re-cpen the case after it hal Feen settled by the arbitration board. He sald the Chamber of Commerce has nuth ing to do with what the company should pay its men, He caid such a commission’s findings would not be hinding on the company, would not be binding on the people as to in creased fares and ihat agreements by the men had ben fcund not to be binding on them, “If the striking workers will not listen te Mayor Key, who has thelr confidence,” sald Mr. Adair. “I think the public is willing to put un with the inconveniences for a short time longer until the mayor or some per son whe has their confidence, can convince them that they nave made a mistake,” said Mr. Adair, President Eugene R. Black said that the sreet car workers have dealt the cause of union libor a deadlier blow than could have oeen delivered in any other wayv.

So it seemed to hundreds of Decatur people. The local was one hour and five minutes late leav ing Decatur. Iz was sidetracked there to allow the morning through train to pass. The through train picked up a few persons, but it stop ped so far down the track those gathered at the station did not know it. For-all the delay the crowd re tained its good humor. Hope was 'expres-ed that the street cars would run soon, or the railroad would fur nish adequate service, Numerous automobile trucks, has tily equipped with seating arrange ments, have been pressed into serv ice. Decatur residents employed by large concerns in Atlanta, especially the department stores and the tele phone company, were provided with special conveyances by the em.- ployers. “Don’t use the teiephone except for necessar ycalls. The street car strike has put a vast volume of new busi ness on the telephone wires and busi ness comes before social ch=f,” was the message sent out to clubwomen Thursday by the home economics de partment of the Atlanta Woman's }(.‘]ub, of which Mrs. Newton C, Wing is chairman. “We hope all women will join in this effort to save the valuable time of business men and women,” said Mrs. Wing Thursday. Walter Taylor, Atlanta’'s—er—cor pulent city clerk, approves of the street car strike—for himself. He entered his office thursday a trlﬂe‘ red, but, upon regaining his breath, he announced he hadn’'t minded the little jaunt in from Tenth street. “With that sun and this strike I'll be alright in a month,” he observed. “That little boat of mine I bought when things were more prosperous got temperamental and went out in sym pathy with the car m2n. In a month | I ought to be able to see my shoes again.” Taxicab )men and jitney.bus lines are doing an enormous business be-‘ tween Decatur and Atlanta. Many persons owning automobiles carried their friends, and fellow citizens strangers to them until the emer gency brought them together. While the cases of this kind were numerous the situation has not been reiieved. It was a lot of fun Wednesday morning, this business of getting to work. At night, it wasn't quite so funny and Thursday morning all the laugh was gone from folks who live out Decatur way—Kirkwood, Oak hurst, Mynatt and the rest of the stops. When the cars didn’'t run Wednes day morning, nearly everybody piled or clung on the local train from Augusta which passes through De catur about 7:30 in the morning. The conductor *couldn’t budge in ers unable to reach their classes would be paid in full STRIKERS' FIRST MEETING. The street car strikers held their first daily meeting Thursday at 10 o'clock in the Red Men's Wigwam with between 1,000 and 1,200 in at tendance. The meeting was execu tive and was addressed by Teat, Reardon and Bell. Groups of strikers congregated |aboul the meeting hall for more than an hour before the meeting commenced. Tha majority of the men had changed their uniforms for civilian clotheg and very few ap peared wearing insignia which iden tified them as striking employees of the Georgia Railway and Power Company. Although the original strike vote was declared to be unanimous at the Wednesday morning meeting, there were many who voted against the walkout on the first ballot these, however, waiving their opposition later when the majority two-thirds controlled the vote wunder wunion rules and brought about the strike. Rasolutions adopted hy a meeting of local young business men ecalled on individuals te\ help protect the public and to voluntesr as street car operators until a settlement can be reached. Neither the power com pany nor the employees were eriti cized, participants stating merely that )the people should be protected and ' that quick action should be taken to resume car service.
