I Picket lines were established | immediately in a. dispute with the companies over the workers’ demand for allowances in lieu of a! wage increase. At the Krey Packing Co., 1,000 men walked out, according to union officials. At the LaClede Packing Co., 350 men were out, and at the Sieloff Packing Co., 135 men struck. The strikers are members of lo- ■ cal 545, of the Butchers, Sausage j Workers and Packing House Em-! ployes union. The strikers’ demands include payment of a Christmas bonus, bos-j pitalization, paid time to sharpen knives, 50 cents a week from the company for work clothes, and compensation for laundry. Carl J. Zeitler, head of the Sieloff plant, said his company had offered workers $1.50 a week in lieu of the demands. He estimated employes pay there averaged between ! S4O and $75 per week. The struck plants supply a large | part of the meat going into St. j Louis retail channels, and deliver-1 ies will be curtailed sharply over, the weekend.
