with Western Union now are sending out ballots to 50,000 members. They urge the members to vote for a strike to enforce an over-all 15-cent-an-hour increase. Leaders Confident The union officers are confident the members will follow their advice. If backed by a big vote and if the government doesn’t step in, they are ready to shut off all telegraphic communications under their jurisdiction. The three unions involved are the Western Union Division of the Commercial Telegraphers Union, representing 40,000 employees; the Telegraph Employees’ Union, 5300 members, and the Telegraph Workers Union, 400. They are headed, respectively, by Adolph Brungs, Hal R. Swann and W. Lee Cooney.

This, according to union spokesmen, was “merely a down payment.” They contend fit carried a promise of further increases in October if company profits were good.
