Charlotte Strike of Street Car Men Nearing End, 1919

“Charlotte Strike Nearing a Settlement,” from the front page of the Rockingham Post-Dispatch, Sept. 4, 1919
The strike of the street car men at Charlotte seems very near a settlement now.
In order to give its readers the very latest in regard to the strike situation there, the Post Dispatch this (Thursday) afternoon at 5 o’clock phone Charlotte.
The only news available is that a committee of car men are this afternoon conferring with President Taylor of the street car company, and all differences have about been smoothed over with the exception of whether ALL the men who went on strike will be taken back. The company objects to a certain few. It is very likely that this will be smoothed out, and the strike may be declared off possibly Friday or Saturday.
