OFor three hours Monday 'afternoon Health Commissioner Copeland pleaded with officials of the milk companies to re- Icede from their refusal to arbitrate the wage dispute that has placed 11, 800 drivers on strike. He appealed ''in the name of the babies whose well being demands uninterrupted supply of the fluid. At the end of the three-hours the distributors still refused to meet with the men around the .conference table and the session broke up with a warning frpm Di' Copeland that he will hold the officials individually re-- fsponsible if any unsanitary conditions develop. He promised his department will exercise the strictest supervision over the supply stations ho make certain milk sold is fresh. The companies answered all appeals for arbitration by asserting they would not deal with the unon, being determined to enforce an open shop. They averred they were "tired of union domineering." . Mayor's Offer Rejected Earlier in the day the companies, through their milk conference board, formally declined to accept the work ers' arbitration offer, issued through Dr. Copeland, whom the men recom- J mended as arbiter. The drivers offered to return immediately uncUn- the old wages if the companies would asren to arbitrate.
