Fore t City, April 11 After bo ins out on a strike since Monday tile employes of the Florence Cot ton Mills lie re, went back to then work this morning itt 7 o'clock The strike was officially declared over late yesterday afternoon, fol lowing a conference between the mill management and a commit Ice from the strikers. While a few of Mir night luft worked last night, the mil! did not begin operations on lull time until this morning The strike began Monday at 11 o'clock when the employes rebelled against a "stretch out" system being used in the mills Those in the cloth room were the first', to go out, followed by the card and spinning Mom. The weavers did not strike In their demands to the mill the sinkers asked that the services of J, C. McGarahan, an efficiency ex pert who caine to the mill n little over a year ago, be dispensed with and the mill restored to the sys tem formerly used. They also de manded a twenty i>cr cent Increase in salary. Their demands regarding the “stretch out” system were granted, but the officials of the mill refused, to grant the ratse In salary. After a committee from the strikers had conferred with the mill officials sev eral times Tuesday and Wednesday the employes agreed to return to their work. While a strike under any conditions is a deplorable thing, there is one commendable fact about the Forest City strike. That is the peaceful and orderly manner In which it was conducted. Fully able to take enre of their own affairs, the strikers would have nothing to do with anyone they thought might be affillnted with any labor organization. In fact, they resented any outside Interference. HICKORY IlIGIIS IN ANOTHER WIN Kings Mountain. April 9— Cut ting short the string of six con secutive victories of Kings Moun tain.
