Master Builders 10 Adopt Plan OF Lock-
outs for Mutual Defence.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 25.-The Builders
Exchange, composed of master builders of
this city. adopted a plan to-day to force
strikers on their operations to come TO
terms. Their agreement provides for
sympathetic lockouts in cases where dis
putee with employees cannot he settled by
the firm involved. The feeling here is
that the effect of the anthracite coal COM
mission inquiry Is TO make union labor more
powerful and TO require equal solidarity
of employers to cope with it.
An advisory board Of five will be ap-
pointed by the president Of the exchange.
To this board is to be referred any dispute
that the employer cannot settle with his
workmen. Ii the board cannot settle it and
a strike is ordered by the men on that work
this advisory board is to have power TO
order a general lockout on all operations
being carried out by members of the
associat ion
