Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pulp and Paper Magazine of Canada, Vol. 24: July 7th, 1921 Striking employees of paper mills in the United States and Canada have voted to accept the proposal made by manufacturers to submit to arbitration the wage dispute that caused some mills to shut down May 1 and others May 11. The arbitration plan calls for the selection of a board of seven, three to represent employees, three employers and a seventh, chosen as umpire by both sides. The board s finding will be retroactive. The ballot of the unions showed the men to be almost unanimous in favoring arbitration as a means of settling the strike. The International Paper Company is not a party to the arbitration agreement. Eleven other concerns are. The manufacturers selected C. H. L, Jones, of Sault Ste Marie, Ontario; E. B. Murray, vice-president of the Union Bag and Paper Company, New York, and Floyd S. Carlisle, president of the St. Regis Paper Company, to represent them. The employees selected as their representatives, John P. Burke, president of the International Pulp, Sulphite and Paper Mill Workers, Jeremiah T. Carey, president of the International Brotherhood of Papermakers, and J. T. Foster, of the Dominion Trades and Labor Con ference. Frank Irvine, of Ithaca, a former member of the Public Service Commission, New York State, and at one time dean of the Law School of Columbia Univ ersity, was named as impartial chairman of the arbitra tion board. The arbitration committee this week begins a tour of the paper mill centers of Canada and the United States.
