According to:the by laws Of the club,

ten warning upon their first offense and
summarily expelled upon its repetition.
The officers Of the club are quoted as
saying that this rule will be strictly en-
forced in the coming season.

bers of the automobile fraternity there
is a strong contempt for the driver

Further, the more thoughtful realize
that it is in the power Of a few road
hogs to bring the automobile into such
disrepute that it will be hardly toler

The stand taken by the Minneapolis

by Informing his critics that he has not
control of the letting of printing con-
tracts for his department. He takes
exception to the action Of the Allied
Printing Trades Council, which took
him to task recently upon the label
question, and this week The Union has
long article giving Mr.. Williams
views in the matter. It appears to be
a fact that the head Of the state labor
bureau has nothing to say as to whether
the printing for his. department. shall
bear the label, and this being SO, he de-
sires the fact to be known by organized
labor thruout the state, with which he
is in strict accord and has been actively

LOOKING FOR ORGANIZER
Brotherhood Of Painters and Decorators
to Have New Official.

A. G. Smith, fifth general vicepresi-
dent of the Brotherhood Of Painters
and Decorators was in Minneapolis to
look over the field in the twin cities in
the interest of the parent organization.
GERS of the twin city locals and George
B. Howley, business agent Of the Build
ing Trades council. He was in
st. Paul, interviewing the officers Of
the union in that city, and one night
Mr. Smith was a member of a box party
given by the local painters at one of the
theaters.
One Of the principal objects Of his
visit to Minneapolis was to select a
suitable man for the position of general
or district organizer. The place was
rendered to A. G. cambridge. several
months ago, but he was compelled. to
decline because Of the illness of Mrs.
cambridge, who suffered a stroke Of
paralysis last fall. It is likely that the
appointment will not be made for a few
weeks, as Mr.. Smith will probably re-
port his recommendations to the inter
national officers before anything is
done. '>s

Sky LOOKS CLEAR
All Building Trades Unions, Except
Bricklayers, Are Ready for Work.

z +
Officers Of the Building Trades coun-
Gil, who should be in a position to-
speak with some certainty, are unit
in the declaration that there will be no
trouble between the contractors and
the building trade unions the coming
season. It IS understood that the scales
of the carpenters and the painters have
been practically accepted by the con-
tractors, and any difficulty from that
source seems improbable.
The situation has become somewhat
complicated thru the refusal Of the
contractors up to this time to accept
the proposed scale Of the bricklayers.
A raise from So cents to 60 cents an
hour is asked, and it is asserted that an
absolute refusal on the part Of the en-
ployers to grant the demand has been
made. The Bricklayers union is not
affiliated with the Building Trades
council. but the former have asked for
conference with the representatives of
the council. It is regarded as extremely
improbable that this will be granted,
for the reason that the local union has
been travelling independent Of all affl-
iations. both local and international, for
long time, and there is disposition
in building trade circles to let them
fight their wage battle, if it comes to
a fight, independent of other local
| unions in the building trades.
| Information comes to the effect that
if the Contractors association does not
agree to stand out against the demands
Of the bricklayers some Of the larger
concerns will do SO Of their own accord
A strike of the bricklayers would per-
haps tie up building operations indef-
:nitely if the other trades lend their
support, but the latter are under no
special obligations to the bricklayers,
and might conclude to ignore any action
they might take and work with men Sc
cured from other sources. However
there is reasonable chance that an ad
justment will be effected and that
everything will be; harmonious before
building operations commence this
spring. "a.
