AS VIEWED BY EMPLOYERS.
0pen-Shop Employees Working With
Union Men in the City.

Union Men IN the C1Cy.
The open-shop situation in the District
Is the subject of a statement issued by
the Employers Association of the build
ing trades of the District Of Columbia
The statement follows:
mine out of eleven bricklayers work
ing for Mr.. Bayne. master bricklayer. on
Mr.. Pickfords apartment house. Goth
and p streets northwest, refused to obey
the orders of the delegates,'to quit. two
only needing the demands of the dele
gatec and the others continuing to work.
On another job nine or ten union brick
layers are working on strictly open
shop job for a prominent member of the
Employers Association. In defiance Of
the order of the delegates to quit. On
still another job eleven union bricklayers
are working side by side with thirty non
union bricklayers. and applications are
being made by union men for work upon
every non-union job in town.
1.-The carpenter situation Is practically
perters are working anywhere and every
where, despite the orders Of the dele
gates.
1.-The stonecutters and masons have also
evidently given up the fight for the closed
shop as they are working indiscriminate-
tinuing to cut stone for Mr.. Melton
work. in the face Of the fact that the
stOnema sons were pulled from the job
and have been replaced by non-union
men, and that all Of the other trades
are open shop. The same union men
are cutting and setting stone on Mr.. Pick
ford's job above referred to, although
the bricklayers were there ordered off,
and the job is open shop. The Butte.
Chappell Company is also furnishing the
stone for Middaugh & Shannon, where
only non-union bricklayers are employed.
From all this 1t Is more than evident
that the men are satisfied to work and
anxious to work under Open-shop con-
diticns An interesting and significant
phase of the situation Is that many OF
the men who have quit the union express
their relief that they can seek employ
ment without an intermediary walking
delegate and engage In such work as their
merit entities them to.
