Efforts of the wage scale committee of the Milk Wagon Drivers' Union and the Teamsters' Joint Council to have the membership of the union accept tl agreement tentatively entered Into between the wage committee and the big mi'k distributers proved fruitless last night.

At a long and stormy meeting of several hundred of the membership, the agreement was turned down. Pres Jeremiah F.
