BIG DEMAND FOR HOUSES
Boss Carpenters Grants Request OF
Journeyman.

While no action viii be taken as an or
ganizAtion or the new wage and hour
schedule Of the union journeymen carpen-
ters, it was practically settled at last
nights meeting of the Hudson County
Boss Carpenters Association at the Ave-
nue House thas the requests OF the jour
neymen will be acceded to.
Mr.. Simmons in discussing the subject,
said that never before was there such a
demand for houses in the West BERGEN
section Of Jersey City as now The sup
ply could possibly meet the demand, he
declared, but under present trade condi-
tions it was impossible TO get moyed men
to invest in new houses. because the in
come would not pay a proper percentage
in the investment.
The question of admitting stair build
ers to membership was discussed, but no
definite action was taken.
A caluse was ordered inserted in the
constitution and bylaws forbidding mem
bers to sign contracts for work in which
it was stipulated that owners could retain
a percentage until ninety days after the
completion Of the job.
The suggestion of the bylaws commit
tee that a business agent be employed
was again discussed, but not decided.
Six new members were elected.
