AFTER ARM0RY BUILDER
BUILDING AIDES COUNCIL,
WANTS TO COMPEL HOSTILE
CONTRACTOR TO EMPLOY ONLY
!. UNION LABOR. fz

The Building Trades council lis on
the trail Of John Porten, the st. Paul
contractor who has the contract for the
new Minneapolis armory. Porten is
regarded as an enemy Of organized
labor, and the purpose of the attack is
to compel him to employ union labor
only in the construction Of the armory.
However, Porten seems this far to
have the best of the situation. He has
secured the contract from the armory
board and has filed his bond as re-
quired. The labor council representa-
tives have gone before the armory
board to ask it's assistance. They
stated that Porten had always fought
the unions at every point and that in
all probability non-union labor would
have the preference. ........
The board, while willing to listen to
the protest and disposed to help if pos,
sible, was unable to give the delegates
from the council any encouragement
They were told that Porten in comply.
ing with every requirement of the
board had so fortified himself that it
would be impossible for the authorities
to interfere.
Phil Carlin, business agent of the
Building Trades council, is out Of the
city and nobody in authority is willing
to say what steps will be taken. Sec

would be done, but he was not in {
