dustrial Conditions Here
and in Canada.

WASHINGTON, Mar. l6.-James l..
Carr. ofWeston. w. Va, has been sup
plying the President with some in
formation tending to show the sim
ilarity Of industrial conditions in the
United States and Canada, as we'll
as indicating that the proposed rec
iprocity with Canada would not af-
feet labor in the United States.
In letter received at the White
House, Mr.. Carr says he was for ten
years members of the Flint Glass
Workers Executive Board and Con-
ference Committee and much of this
time was spent in gathering statistics
as to the cost of labor in the United
States.
Every flint glass worker in the
Dominion, he says. is member OF
the union. His wages are identically
the same as those paid in this
country, and are settled at a confer
ence held each year. OF the thirty
six annual conventions held by the
union, "a were held in this country
and two in Canada. the pay for Can
ldian workmen being fixed in this
country.
Mr.. Carr adds that every green
bottle and fruit jar maker in Canada
IS member of the Green Bottle
Blowers Union and works under The
'ame conditions as the flint glass
workers.
Bricklayers, Mr.. Carr says, work
,nder the same conditions as men of
heir trade do in the United States,
rhe same is true, he says, of mach
nists, printers, molders. BARRIERS and
very other skilled trade in Canada.
AS to common labor. he says there Is
practically no difference.
