Show FIGHT RESUMED I RESTAURANTS Culinary Alliance Reestablishes Reestab-lishes Pickets Before "Unfair" Houses. Picket lines wore maintained before many of the nonunion restaurants of Salt Lake yesterday by the striking- cooks and waiters for the first time in three weeks. The antipicketing act, passed October 6 at the special .session of tho state legislature, does not become effective effec-tive for sixty days. It was approved by the gqvernnr. Union officials said yesterday that a test case may be made to determine the constitutionality of the antipicketing act. J. H. Morris, secretary of the Culinary alliance, lias written a letter to William -M. Knurr of tho state industrial commission, commis-sion, in which he said that the only reason rea-son for asking- the Associated Industries to take part in a conference for the purpose pur-pose of settling- the strike of the cooks and waiters was to "find out why, in the face of disavowal of their intent to become be-come involved in this conference and in the controversy, they have persistently interfered when a settlement was in sight, and actually ordered the restaurant men not to treat with the Culinary alliance." Tt was proposed by the Culinary alliance that representatives of this organization, the Salt Lake Restaurant Men's association, associa-tion, the industrial commission and the Salt Lake Federation of Labor act as a board of arbitration in an effort to settle the differences between the cooks' and waiters' union and the restaurant men. A. C. Hees, general secretary of the association, as-sociation, said in a letter written to Mr. Knerr that the association did not wish to act aa an intermediary. |
