UNION WORKMEN
HAVE FEW TROUBLES
Carpenters Complain Of Navy Yard
Wages-Filtration Plant Trouble.
Satisfactory Elsewhere.

Conditions Of work for union men on
the filtration plant have not changed,
despite the protests of the leaders, and
the matter may be considered at the
next meeting Of the Building Trades
Council.
The carpenters are also complaining
of the fact that the Navy Yard is pay
ing less than union wages, and pro-
test is to be made against the practice.
The union men, however, have no COM
plant to make against the conditions
on all other Government work Except
at the filtration plant conditions are
satisfactory.
Conditions were never better" said
Joseph Reilly, the business agent OF the
United Brotherhood of Carpenters and
Joiners' local union, between the union
men and the employers than they are
today. In all District work the only I'M
pleasantness is on the filtration plant
AT the War College and Arsenal we
are being treated fairly, and have moth
ing but praise fer Captain Seward. Al
the Navy Yard. however, the men are
being paid from $2.56 to 1925, and $3.50,
instead of $3.50 straight, the union
wages
Regarding the charge that carpenters
have been employed at the Home Club
at a rate of 81 q day, instead of $3.50,
it was said this morning that the men
were not Elks, as asserted When the
were told that it was a case OF Elks
helping Elks. but the union agents say
they have discovered this assertion to
be untrue.
