TIN-PLATE PLANT EMPLOYEES MAY
RESUME LABOR ON MONDAY.
Partial Agreement at the Conference
Between Employers and the Wage
Scale Committee.

CHICAGO. July 12.-Bars instead of bill
lets and a ratio of one-seyenth instead of
one-fifth was agreed on tonight at the con-
ference between the members of the Anal
gamated Iron and Steel Association and
representatives of the American Tin-plate
Company as the basis from which the slid
ing wage scale Of the tin-plate works will
be figured for the coming Industrial year.
The abandonment of billets as a basis from
which to do the figuring and the substitu-
ton of tin-plate bars in their stead was de-
cided on as the more equitable. from the
fact that the bars do not enter into so many
items of finished steel products. The change
of ratio was simply a necessary detail at
tending the change of base. The change is
an important one and each item in the long
list of details going to make up the new
scale had to be gone over carefully by both
sides before any Roadway could be made
toward its adoption.
The long conference will in all likelihood,
end tomorrow and the mills of the Ameri-
can Tin-plate Company will resume opera
tons next Monday. The advance which the
men will secure over last years scale will
figure out about 10 per cent. If the predic-
lions made tonight hold good at to-mor-
rows conference.
