Des Moines Car Strike Settled
Des Moines reports the streetcar strike ended after an executive board pledge to return to work. A mass meeting backed a wage order of six cents with surplus funds to settle back pay claims. Judge Wade allowed the wage contract to stand and canceled his prior order. Receivers met the council and agreed to use Monday’s order as settlement basis.
