Tile Federal Mediation Board, meeting for the first time, received the demands of the workers and a picture of niill conditions from Francis J. German, national strike leader. George A.

However, an inpcndent survey in midafternoon estimated that 370.000 were on strike. A number of‘ mills reopened, but the total of those go- ing back to work was offset by new shutdowns, resulting in a net in- crease of 10,000 strikers over yes- terday.
