Mass Meeting Backing City Grocers In Flour Decision
Great Falls January 7 A mass meeting of citizens at the Rainbow hotel voted unanimously to back city grocers in retailing flour from Royal Milling Co which unions say is unfair and which has drawn a new non union force. Grocers refuse unions demand and join the Great Falls Merchants Association. More than 60 plumbers strike for $8 wage, old $7 refused, shops say they can get help to operate. Business remains normal as unions refuse to confer with the association. A mass meeting of business interests is called for Monday to outline policies.
