COMBINE LABELS
Tailors and Garment Workers Likely
to Unite. - ..


There seems to be every likelihood
that the Journeymen Tailors union and
the Garment Workers. International
union will become one organization,
with one label. At conference held
recently in Detroit, Mich, the joint
conference committee decided to SUBJ
NIT the proposition of consolidation to
a referendum vote of the two organiza-
tions, and this will be done. g..
The name selected for the new Or
ganization is the Garment Workers and
Journeymen Tailors' International
Union of America. If the referendum
carries, another vote will be taken for
the selection Of officers. There are
about $4,000 members in both organi-
cations, and a merging of interests
would mean the strengthening of both
branches, which have had considerable
conflict, because Of the fact that each
| organization has label, the use of
which has been limited to garments
above and below a certain figure. To
illustrate: Where both labels are used
the custom tailors' label is put on
suits for which $25 or over is paid
| and under this sum the garment work
ers label is used. AS rule, customers
have never been able to understand
the situation, and much confusion has
resulted. ..r...,-

definite was done. If there is
going to be a fall carnival, it's
high time something was being
lone.
