Clothier's Exchange Accepts Pro-
posal For Settlement Made
By State Board.

ROCHESTER,. April 10.-The strike
of the men and women engaged in the
mems garment industry Of this city
was terminated by the acceptance of
a proposition by the Clothiers' ex-
change through the State Board Of
Mediation.
The principal features of the con-
tract are the abolition Of subcontract-
ing; So hours to constitute a weeks
work; overtime to be paid at the rate
of time and a half for week workers
piece workers to be compensated for
time lost by operation of the 50 hour
week. No work is to be performed
on Decoration Day, July 4, Labor Day,
Christmas and New Year. No dis
elimination against employees if
members Of the union, nor any dis
elimination against any of the strik-
erS.
Manufacturers are to meet and
Employees who were on strike to- be
re-employed as rapidly as possible
and before any additional help is en-
gagged.
AS a result of the strikes which
were lnaugurated y by the Garment
Workers in December, the member
ship of the International organization
has been increased to nearly 100, 900,
and efforts are now to be put forth
to perfect this large organization so
that there will not be the urgent
necessity in the future Of engaging in
industrial contests Of such propor-
tions as have just taken place.
The officers of the Garment Work
ers acknowledge the great debt they
owe to the workers in other crafts
for the magnificent moral and finan-
cial support given to the garment
workers during their contest.
