New Bedford Mills Run. Union Strike Threat Shows Hope of Settlement
New Bedford Mass Dec 1 Union textile workers here who threatened to strike today to press wage demands remained at work after talks with cotton manufacturers. Nine of the four unions affiliated with the National Amalgamated Textile Operatives voted for a strike, but two thirds across unions was required. Mayor Charles Acney brokered a conference as manufacturers offered to resume talks if action was deferred. No firm offer, but both sides felt an adjustment possible. The strikers seek a 2 1 per cent raise and many unorganized workers were expected to join if action began.

Cutting Christmas Trees Wisely
Officials of the U S Department of Agriculture Forest Service urge selective cutting to protect forest growth. They advise choosing compact trees rather than exposed ones to avoid gaps, and to cut higher and remove only the upper portion for ornamentation, reducing harm to future growth. Local forests should be used where possible.
