fa Trust Case
A deluge of telegrams from the
nation's labo? leaders and thou
sands of messages from consum
ers, all voicing to the an ti -trust
suit against A A P Food Stores,
have flooded the company's New
York offices, an official of the
food chain said today.
Union heads representing but- 1
chers, meat cutters, clerks, ware I
housemen and truck drivers, be
gan sending wires as soon as news
of the suit calling for company {
dissolution reached the press. At
the same time, thousands of con- 1
?umers have swamped A & P head
quarters with phone calls, tele
Crams and letters praining the
company's operations and critiz
in* the anti-trust charges.
The labor chiefs brand the suit
an attack against organized labor
and a threat to current living
standards. AH oppose the action
?f the anti-trust lawyers and
pledge support of A A P's plan
to defend its low-price retail pol
icy.
Reflecting the sentiments of
thousands of organized workers
in food and allied industries, the
messages stress A & P's high
wage scales and excellent work
ing conditions.
Earl W. Jimerson, president of
the Amiga mated Meat Cutters
& Butcher Workmen, an A. P. of
L. affiliate, in regretting; " the
action taken by Attorney (general
Howard McGrath," said his union
was ready "to aid your company
in any way we can."
Jimerson's wire referred to At
P as "almost throughly unioniz
ed/' and assailed the action as a
sinister move to single out the
Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Co.
Stating that "the whole suit is
nearly a blast at organized labor,"
the message added that the com
pany meets union wage rates
throughout the country.
"This friendly attitude," it con
tinued, "is reflected in your com
pany's dealings with practically
all other unions affiliated with
the American Federation of
LaboT."
A wire from the teamsters*
union, Boston, said that "in view
of our excellent labor relations
with the A & P, Local 829 will do
all in its power to publicize that
the A & P pays the highest wages
and provides the bast working
conditions for all its employees,"
and "is one of the largest contri
butors to the high standard of liv
ing the American public now en
joys."
The message was signed by j
John E. Hamilton, John J. Greel
ey, and John C. Harrington, busi
ness representatives of Local 828.
Similar statements were con
tained in telegrams from all parts
of the country where A & P oper
ates.
