SHIR TMAKERS AHEAD,
Ten Contractors Sign the New
Agreement.
Their Employ ees Will Now Make
SO or 50 a Week.
Others of the Contractors Are Being
Urged to Submit.

The Executive Committee of the Shirt
Makers Union reported to-day that the
prospect of winning the strike now in
progress Is bright. Ten contractors have
signed an agreement to pay the new
scale of prices, which will enable the
workers to make so per cent. more wages
than formerly. or about IS or 50 a week
each, ten hours being the limit of
workday. The Committee is in negotia-
ton with other contractors who are ex-
pected to enter into the new arrange
ment.
This Contractors Association sent a re-
quest to the Executive Committee of the
Union that the cooperative shops be
abolished. as they were detrimental to
the interests of the contractors because
they were competitors. These co-opera-
tive shops are formed by members of
the Union and have no middleman to
take away the profits Of their labor.
The contractors thought 1t would be I'M
fair to ask them TO pay the new scale
II the cooperative shops were contin-
ued.
The unions committee would not dis
cuss the matter, nor give an answer for
the reason that the men and women
who run the cooperative shops are
members OF the union, who have had to
contend against the competition and
starvation wages heretofore paid by
the contractors.
Subsequently a committee OF the con-
tractors announced to the union commit
tee that the Contractors Associa ton
had split. One half OF the members. It
was stated, requested the union commit
tee to furnish them with the Hebrew
price-list for making shirts, and the
Committee promised to give an answer
before the close Of the day. The other
