Pres. John TObin
Predicts Clash.

Boston. Feb. ga yelled prophecy OF
a labor war among some of the shoe rae
tories in Brockton was made tonlght by
President John F. Tobin of the Boot and
Shoe Workers Union, in speech before
the Claiming Club of this city. Mr.. TO-
biE said that there was an element IT.
the ranks of the union that believed IN
strikes rather than arbitration and thar
there may be an attempt TO estaollsn
wages in Brockton by the former method
when certain contracts expire on March
I. Mr.. Tobin. however, expressed HIM
self as confident that the arbitration sys-
tenn would prove superior.
Mr.. Tobin was introduced by Georges
IF. Ellis, local printer, the president
of the club and strong advocate of tho
open shop. In his opening remarks MIR.
Tobin referred to the open shop and ex-
obtain, but not until employees and EN-
ployers were more educated in regard to
the labor situation than at present. Nj.
Tobin said that it was the pONDy of the
Boot and Shoe Workers Union to elimi-
nate strikes, but something of that ma
ture was now threatening in Brockton.
1T may be possible" he said, Ito
avert q strike there; but if not, believe
the result on the whole will be beneficial,
although there has been eight years Of
uninterrupted progress in the business"
Mr. Tobin said that the Brockton man.
ufacturers had issued q statement claim
ing that the wages in the shoe factories
were the highest in the world and that
the proposition that had been made to
them. Tor new contracts provided that
there should be arbitration only on the
question OF increase i'll the wages. There
Is no provision in the proposed new con-
tract for any decrease in wages. Mr..
Tobin thought that such a position was
unfair and that contracts should be made
mat would work both ways.
al the conclusion of the Boot and Shoe
Workers Union at Milwaukee in Noven,-
per resolution was adopted to the eff
iect mat future contracts made by the
inherent unions should provide for no re-
AUCTION In wages, but only arbitration
vi the question of increase. Since Ian :
d numper OF the shoe manufacturers who
Ilao contracts with the Booth and Shoe
workers Union have not been using tn.
union stamp ON their products hac.ns,
I'll anticipated difficulty with the union.
Inc contracts with eight firms in BROOK
ION expire March !, but no movement h. :.
peeh made by any of them to sign a nen,
wage agreement.
