MASTER PLUMBERS
DECLARE OPEN SHOP.
History of the Trouble Between the
Journeymen and Master Plumbers.

After several recent meetings of the
Master Plumbers association, a unan-
lmous vote for the open shop was
passed at a meeting on Tuesday even
ing. at the Buckingham Memorial.
Since April list the strike declared by
the journeymeh plumbers has been in
effect.
discovery by the journeymen
plumbers that they were working I'M
der a printed agreement with the mas
ter plumbers that terminated at the
end of this year. instead of at the end
of last year. paved the way for the
present difficulty between the men and
the employers. The last working
agreement was reached in the usual
way by conference between commit
tees from the two organizations. After
the agreement had been signed, it was
printed, each side taking turns in hav-
ing the printing done. The last time
1t belonged to the master plumbers to
have the printing done, which it did.
According to the records of the jour-
neymen's union their committee re-
ported that a working agreement had
been entered into for three years, but
after this agreement had been in force
for about two Years the business agent
for the plumbers happened to see a
contract in a shop, and noticed that
its expiration date would commit the
jOurneymen to four year agreement,
instead of the three year term they
supposed they were working under.
Following this. the .journeymen have
asked for conference with the mas
ter plumbers over the agreement, but
the response of the master plumbers
has been that the agreement was still
operative and that they were willing
to abide by it's terms and declined to
enter into any discussion of the agree
ment. 1t is understood that the jour-
neymen have asked the master plum
bers to produce the original document
that was signed by the two commit
tees, but this the master plumbers
stated they are unable to do, as it was
lost or mis1aid when the printing was
done.
A further demand was made this
spring upon the master plumbers by
the journeymen for a change in the
wage scale and when this was refused
the strike was declared which has
been in effect since.
National officers cf the journeymen
plumbers association came here soon
after the strike was instituted, in
vestigated the union mems claims and
declared that they We're justified in
their strike and would have the full
backing of the organization,

|REMODEILINc FINISHING GO. PLANT
New Three-Story Brick Building 17Ox175 With Rein
forced Concrete Floors-First Step in Rebuilding
Old Plant.


The first work on the large project
of reconstructing the old portion Of
the United States Finishing company 9
plant in this city is under way and
being pushed along with the idea Of
having the building closed in before
cold weather puts a stop to the work.
At the present time only one building
will be constructed. but it is probable
that as soon afterwards as the weather
permits another section of the plant
will be changed and this gradually
continued until the old buildings are
eliminated and the plant becomes one
of the most up to date in the country.
1t will require some time to bring this
all about, and the expense will amount
to seyera, hundred thousand dollars,
but by the change the business can be
handled better and more work turned
out, as all the requirements of the
business will be looked after with that
end in view.
The building to be constructed this
fall will be about 100 by 175, the first
distance being along the river and the
second from the river at right angles
in the direction of the canal. The
building will be of brick, three stories
high, and having reinforced concre.e
floors and gravel and tar roof. AS far
as possible the new buildings will re
constructed without interfering with
the present building which it will take
the place of, though no part of the old
building can be utilized. This build
ing is being built next to the present
new section of the plant, and good

There is force of about so men at
work there OH the foundation. the wall
along the river side of the property
being under construction at the pre- :
ent time. A very heavy stone founda-
ton is being put in just outside the
present wall. 1t is seven feet wide on
the bottom and will be Is feet high. It
has now reached height of four feet
and it is believed it will be completed
lin about two weeks. This river wall is
to be continued the entire length Of
the property in time. but only the 10
feet for the building now under way
will be built now.
This building, which is the stepping
stone for the reconstruction of the eu-
tire plant, will be utilized by other de-
partments during the reconstruction
period. 1t will be well lighted and
the fact that it will have reinforced
concrete floors will make it practically
fireproof building. 1t will have 6S.-
ESQ square feet of floor space.
When the reconstruction Is completed
the home plant will be the best in the
possession of the United States Fin
ishing company. 1t is now turning out
yearly under Manager John Rogers a
vast amount of goods, but it is expect
ed that with the new buildings ard

still further increased. This is one Of
