Santa Claus To Be Here Next Week
_ —i— —i—
Santa Claus has scheduled his
Plymouth visit for December 11
again this year, but this time the
date falls on Saturday. Also, he
will appear a bit earlier in the
day than on. previous annual
visits.
The jolly old gentleman will
be downtown from 2 to 3 p. m.,
according to information receiv
ed from North Pole headquarters
by Thos. F. Hopkins, spokesman
for the Plymouth merchants
sponsoring the visit.
Arrangements have been made
for white and colored) school
bands in the county to take part
in a parade in Santa’s honor
which wi'lil form ait ithe high
school aind maroh downtown
where a position will be taken
up in front of the Legion Hall.
As usual on ruch accasions, free
candy will be given out to the
kiddies. Plans are being worked
out to control the crowd so that
the children can go up to Santa
in a single file and receive their
gift of candy in an orderly fash'
ion.
This method was used last year
and proved much better than
passing out the candy among chil
dren in the crowd in the manner
of previous occasions.
It will be appreciated by the
sponsors and by Saint Nick him
self if parents will instruct their
children on the necessity of or
derly conduct in order to give all
present an equal opportunity.
Also, all children are urged to
bring their letters to Santa re
questing toys they desire for
Christinas. Due to the large crowd
anticipated, it will be impossible
for the children to talk to the old
gentleman about what they want
him to bring them so they are
asked to please bring their letters.
The kiddies won’t forget—its
Saturday of next week, 2 to 3.

| Picket Lines Set Up Yes
! terday by Construction
Workers Move to Special
Gate in Time for After
noon Shift Change
A complete shutdown of the
North Carolina Pulp Company
plant was narrowly averted here
yesterday afternoon as the result
of a complex labor dispute. Pic
kets representing construction
workers formerly employed at
the plant were removed from the
two main gates shortly after 3
o'clock, and production workers
began streaming into the mill
immediately afterwards to relieve
other shift workers, some ocf
whom had been on duty contin
uously for 16 hours.
Although production workers
and the company itself were
claimed not to be directly involv
ed in the dispute, several hun
dred members of production
workers’ unions hesitated to cross
the picket lines as time for the
shift change neared between 3
and 4 o’clock yesterday afternoon
The picket lines had been set
up early Wednesday, turning
back an undetermined number of
workmen when the day shift re
ported between 7 and 8 o’clock
yesterday morning. Workmen in
the plant not relieved at that
time, including most or all mem
bers of the operating engineers
ana erecmcnans unions men on
duty, were required to remain on
the job for an extra shift while
efforts were being made to work
out a solution. A company offic
ial said at noon yesterday that
unless engineers reported for
duty on the 4 o'clock shrift it
would be necensary to shut down
the plant, throwing more than
11,000 people out of work.
As the result of a series of
conferences held during the day,
the company agreed to admit
construction workers only at a
special gate, and shortly after 3
o’clock the pickets were moved
from the two main gates to the
special gate several hundred
yards west of the main employ
ees’ entrance. The pickets bore
signs reading “Construction Dis
pute Is Over Wages and Work
ing Conditions.”
The labor dispute originated
about two weeks ago, following
attempts to organize construction
workers engaged in building some
additions to the local plant. Al
though no official announcement
has been made by the company,
it is generally understood than
an extensive expansion program
is being started here, with sev
eral firms of cctitractoife and
sub-contractors engaged for the
actual construction work.
Paul Askew, of Norfolk, Va.,
ohairma nof an American Feder
ation of Labor organizing com
mittee, representing 10 building
trade craft unions, said yesterday
that approximately 70 men were
employed in construction work at
the plant here prior to November
17. Following notice that a meet
ing to discuss organizing would
bo held on Tuesday, November
16, Askew said tthe men were
warned not to attend the mee .ing
and that about 68 of them were
firedi the next day after they had
attended.
No official statement could be
secured yesterday from the gen
eral contracting firm, S. S. Ja
cobs Company, of Jacksonville,
Fla., but it is understood the con
tractors claim that construction
work was discontinued on No
vember 17 and the men were laid!
off for that reason. The pulp
company’s attitude is that the dis
pute is between the contracting
firms and the construction work
ers and that the company is not
directly involved.
However, it has been learned
that charges of “unfair labor
practices” have been lodged
against the pulp company, as well
as the contracting firms. Two
representatives of the National
