The general situation was also die' cussed, and one of the presidents at th( conclusion of the meeting stated that in his judgment the men would be perfectly satisfied to accept the KD per cent offei with the jpowder "clause included. "All that we can expect to onforce is that wt get the 10 per rent," said b». "It fe hardly the thing for us to think we cau also dictate to the compantea how thej shall pay the advance."
