SAYS THE LIMIT HAS Been
REACHED IN SAN FRANCISCO
Contractors and Builders Declare That
Further Increase In Wages Will
Result in Suspension of
Building.

San Francisco.-The precipitation
of fearful industrial struggle in this
city in throwing down the gauntlet to
trades unions by declaring a gigantic
lockout of the thousands of building
craftsmen engaged in the work of re-
habitating San Francisco for long
time hung in the balance Wednesday
afternoon at meeting of the principal
builders and contractors and repre-
sentatives of the manufacturers. Sew
eral speakers declared that the only
solution of the continual industrial
strife and labor troubles in San Fran
cisco was the open shop" and urged
immediate war upon the unions and
flight to the finish without quarter"
by the cessation of all building opera
lions until the employees would be
glad to return to work at wages that
builders and contractors and other en-.
ployes could pay without loss to
themselves.
Other speakers with equal vigor OPP
posed such radical action, urged more
conciliatory tactics in dealing with
the situation, pleaded for the rights
of labor organizations and pointed out
the possible results of such a tremend
Gus struggle between capital and la
Dor. The conservatives finally won
and succeeded in having resolution
adopted calling for the appointment OF
a committee Of five representing the
builders and contractors to confer with
the unions with view of securing
peace for at least one year.
