Little progress toward settling the threatened strike by poultry shochtim was ade in the six-hour closed conference of attorneys representing the several factions in Judge Otto Rosalsky’s chambers Thursday, it was learned Friday.
Another parley will be held Monday night in a New York hotel.
Judge Otto Rosalsky completely reversed his previous decision, raising the price of poultry one cent per pound to pay for kosher slaughtering and rabbinical supervision at Thursday’s meeting, it was learned.
A bitter, long-drawn debate over who should absorb the one-cent increase marked the conference. Threats of strike and lockouts were voiced frequently.
