,The'lz cent an hour increase was

”Ito union succeeded in securing a
temporary injunction preventing the
company from putting the open shop
into effect. But on October 15 Judge
'Clos’e or Upper Sandueky handed
down a. decision declaring that the
12 cent increase was illegal but that
the, closed shop contract was valid
and was to remain in effect in per-
petuity. The case then was carried
,to the appellate court and was heard
'by-out-ot town judges. They sus-
tained his decision as to the wage
increase but reversed him regarding
the dos-ed Shop- Their stand has
been backed by the supreme court
and the union 5 injunction has been
dissolved

The company has now offered the
men a 5 cent an hour increase re-
troactive to May 1 and President
Stanley oi the company now says
there remains nothing to arbitrate
since the court has settled the Closed
