with rumors Of explosions and resig

Henry Campbell Zimmerman, the Lib

Campbell- Zimmerman attempts to
pour oil on the troubled waters with a
letter explaining that he has never
thought OF blaming the soldiers, but
condemned those who are responsible
for instituting the concentration camps,
as every hardship inflicted on the wom-
en- and children can only prove an I'm

strikes were cailed on the building these

1t is anticipated that they will take the

During the past year the Council of
the Allied Building Trades has establish
ed record that breaks every previous
record of organized labor in this city.
especially where so many unions are
affiliated IN one central body. 1t has
won every strike during the past twelve
months, an exceptional outcome in the
labor field. due to the conservatism of
the executive board of the council. which
| investigates thoroughly the underlying
reasons for dissatisfaction and never
orders n strike unless the circumstances
warrant such action.
| Only two strikes ordered by the ex-
ecutive board. which has sole power to
act in such eases. have lasted more than
| two days. One Of these was ut the
Merchant and Mariner Building the new
structure now in course of erection for
the Girard estate at Third and Chestnut

TAX placed nnon the union men for thu
