Cut Throat Competition Under Tariff
Lash Real Cause of This Big Strike
Garment Manufacturers Fear Each
Other and Many Would Gladly
Grant Demands They Admit Are
just If All Would Agree.
BY IL. f, Wilson.

NEW YORK, Aug. 22.-The
strangest thing about the strike
of the $4,000 cloak makers OF
New York is that many of the
biggest employers as individuals
want the strikers to win. while as
an organization they are fighting
the unions demands.
The reason is that the employ
ers believe the employees have
had harsh conditions of work. Yet
the manufacturers have been
helpless, for they have had to
meet their business rivals in a
cut-throat competition that has
hardly a parallel in these days
of trusts. The INSCRIPTIONS
manufacturer employs men and
women for pitifully small wages;
his business rival must pay equal
ly low wages or fall in the race.
This fear of rivals makes the
recently formed association of
manufacturers stand stoutly
against the unions demands.
Each man fears some rival would
evade the strike settlement
agreement, and so gain trade
advantage.
The cloak manufacturer stands
with his back to the tariff wall.
The Aldrich tariff increased the
cost of woolens to him an aver
age 10 per cent. But the manu-
facturer is confronted with the

TROOPS OFF
To ORE.
FIRE

PORTLAND, Ore, Aug. "a
Companies A, F, G, H and I, First
infantry, numbering 25S men, and
a pack train from the Second field
artillery, arrived in Portland last
night from American Lake and
left almost Immediately for Med
ford to fight the forest fires in the
Crater National forest of southern
Oregon. The troops will reach
Medford today and will be sent to
the fire front as soon as possible.
The fire in the Crater National
forest grows steadily worse, ac-
cording to information received at
the local forestry headquarters to-
day. The present force of fire
fighters is inadequate to handle
the situation. Some of them have
been on the fire line for ~ hours
without sleep. Many exhausted
men have dropped in their tracks.
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1910-08-22

competition of the retailers, sharp
er now than ever before because
of the increased cost of living. And
cheap clothes have never been in
such demand.
The treasurer of the American
Federation of Labor is in New
York, closely watching the strike
and advising on all movements.
President Gompers spent several
days there recently. One of the
best A. F. of L. organizers, Grant
Hamilton, is also on the job. The
federation regards this strike as
very important, because of its
rapid development of the union
idea among a large class of work
ers hitherto unorganized.
Both walls were constructed by
Aldrich and his wooden schedule
the increased cost of the wool
ems to the manufacturer, the in
creased competition among the
retailers demanding cheap cloth
ing. Between these two walls the
cloak manufacturer and the
cloak maker have stood. There
has been room for only one to
live. The manufacturer, the
stronger, has crushed the weak
err, the operative, and SO lived
himself.
1t cannot be doubted that the
manufacturer would welcome a
widening of the space to give room
for him and for his employee to
live. But unless all consent to
pay increased wages to the work
ers and unless all raise the
prices of their products, not one
manufacturer of the association
will give in. 1t would be ruin for
him If he did. 1t is estimated that
the wholesale price of women s
suits has not increased nearly in
proportion to the increase in the
cost of wooden cloth. The 5000
cloakmakers of New York, not the
public, have been paying the Aid
rich wooden schedule duties.
Said Maurice Leader, business
agent of the reefermakers: Il be-
lieve the strike could be settled in
a few days If it were not for the
lawyers. l know many of the
manufacturers believe the union
demands are just. One large man.
ufacturer told his men the day
they walked out that he wished
them success in the strike. But
both sides have employed lawyers

he said. Let the men get more
if they want it; it simply means
we shall have to add that much to
the cost of garments. But we
want the other manufacturers to
do the same thing"
The lawyer for the manufactur-
ers, when he began the con-
ferences with the strikers COM
mittee, said the manufacturers
were much in earnest in wishing a
plan for the worke0s to get a bet
ter living on such terms as would
not be suicidal for the manufacture
ers themselves.
Perhaps the cloak manufacture
ers deserve public sympathy as
well as the strikers. For both are
caught between the walls the Aid
rich tariff is forcing together upon
them.
! There is no more uncertain bust
ness in the United States than the
cloak and suit business. 1t is a
continual story of failures and
quick successes. No one occupa-
tion in New York sends so many
cases to the bankruptcy courts.
The evil contract system,
which has turned thousands of
East Side tenement homes into
sweatshops, is also attributable to
the sharp competition in the trade.
The phenomenal growth of the
cloak business began in 1894 at
the close of the last great strike.
The strikers lost, their organiza-
tion was disrupted, and they took
up piecework, against which they
had made an unsuccessful fight.
There came on a boom in the
business. Under piece work the
contract system flourished. Soon
the contractors, starting some
times with only the wage despos
it's of their employees as capital,
began setting up their own es.
Establishments, employing other con-
