THE BUILDING TRADE.
AT a MEETING of the MASTER BUILDERS, held
man3ll T HuasuA.y, at the Portico, Newington, at which more
One Hundred Masters were present,
JOHN TOMKINSON, Esq. in the Chair,
If teas Resolved unanimously,
,°l)"ed by Mr. KILPIN, and seconded by Mr. HENRY COLE,
,„_! That, while this Meeting deplores the continuance of the
golterences which exist between the Employers and the Work-
en, they again express their belief that the resolution agreed
Pon at the last Meeting was ,just and reasonable, and was im-
keratively called for by the exigencies of the case,,,
"rroPosed by Mr. SAMUEL HOLME, seconded by Mr. EDWARD
• WILLIAMS,
" It having come to the knowledge of this Meeting, that great
Zumbers of the workmen now standing out are impressed by a
botion that their signing a mere declaration, that they are not,
and will not continue, a member of a trades' union, will be
binding upon them in law; and it having been industriously
propagated that it is the intention of the employers to take
advantage of the same, this meeting desires. in the strongest
Manner, to repudiate such an intention, even if it was possible
or legal, and declares that the signing of the declaration is only
binding in honour upon every man, and was the course adopted
in 1833, and to which no objection was then made."
proposed by Mr. JOHN WALKER, and seconded by Mr. Tilos.
cc JAMES,
•
That this Meeting, for the protection of Employers, and also for the protection of those Workmen who have resumed
their avocation, feel the necessity of acting with firmness and
flour ; and every Employer now present pledges himself not
r resume work with any man who refuses to separate himself
-join a combination which takes upon itself to dictate both to
~-;truployers and Workmen, and whose interference is so preju-
ulCial to the best interests of society."
~Proposed by Mr. JOHNSON, seconded by Mr. CRELLIN,
That an Acting Committee be now appointed to meet at
Tch times and places as may be deemed advisable, and
`o.!t. it consist of the following gentlemen:—
