UNION PLUMBERS
REFUSE TO WORK
About TwO-Thirds of the United
Association Members De-
mand Sc Per Day.

Because the master plumbers re
sion to the members of the United As
sociation Of Journeymen Plumbers Of
this city, about two-thirds of the
plumbers failed to report for work at
headquarters yesterday. The couces-
sion which the plumbers demanded was
salary scale of So per day, and the
request w9s made about three months
ago, at which time the members Of
the organization asserted that they
would refuse 10 work if they were not
granted the increase on certain date
this month.
The raise did not seen, to be forth
coming, and as the time Limit expired
about eight days ago several special
meetings were called last week to CON
slder the matter, with the result that
the walk out was determined upon. As
some of the employers acced ed to the
that about onc-third of the union men
are still at work. while the remainder,
about forty men. refuse to work for
less than So per day.
In demanding n higher wage scale
the plumbers based their calculations
on The salaries paid IN some of the Pa
cifc coast cities. They explained that
high as in the towns on the coast, and
therefore they could not continue TO
work for $3.50 per day. as heretofore,
The employers, on the other hand,
maintained that the journeymen
plumbers in Denver and other Colorado
cities were content with the same scale,
while their expenses were no less than
those of the local plumbers. Some
OF the employers, however. assert
that they would consent to pay So per
day, but that they refuse absolutely
to accede to the request of the union.
These arc now attempting to handle
their business with non-union work
men, and, as might be expected, their
force of worlSmen is at present entirely
unable to cope with the situation. Other
shops have been employing non-union
men, and these, of course, are not
affected by the walk-out.
