HEALEY BUILDING
STRIKE At CRISIS
Superintendent Collins Declares
"0pen Shop" Practically De-
flying Union Men,

Defiance of the labor unions was
uttered Friday morning by Superin-
tendent Collins, of the Healey Build
ing, when he declared that hereafter
the construction work on the new
skyscraper will be an open Job" and
that any man who applies will be put
to work if there is an opening,
whether he is a union or nom union
man.
The first step in the warfare against
the unions was taken Friday when
fifteen non union carpenters were
employed in the places of the men
who went on strike Thursday.
I'VE have tried to deal with the
unions" said Superintendent Collins,
but we have done with them now.
They came to us in committee ana
declared that they would make the
Healey job either an open or n
closed job, and they've made an open
job of It
1--WE talked with Mr.. Healey and
Mr. Morgan and others interested in
the construction of the building, and
they agree with me that it is time to
break all negotiations with the union
and employ non union men. Here
after this will be an open job. 1t
won't matter to us whether the men
eyed heard of the unions or not"
Mr.. Collins declared the work was
not being hindered to any marked
extent by the strike, The trouble
originated when non union painter
was put to work on the building by a
subcontractor. The union painters
went out on strike Tuesday followed
by two engineers, a number Of plumb
ers and bricqlayers and the employees

of candidates to reckon with unless
he stemmed the tide quick!
1t may be stated, however, that
Cox, the appointee, was far away in
the lead in the matter of Endorsements
before the Governor at the time the
appointment was made, and it looked
as if he certainly was the choice of
his circuit for the position.
The Governor was decidedly in
cllned to Cox, even before he was
sure that Park had been named for
Congress-but it is not likely he
would have been rendered the Albany
Judgeship actually before Judge
Parks resignation was in hand, had
it not been for the scramble set in
motion for the succession.
AS for Eugene Cox, he is one of
the brightest young lawyers in Geor-
gia, and in every way measures up to
the position. He will make a good
Judge-a conservative and wise Judge.
There can be no doubt whatever II
that. His Endorsements were of the
very highest character, and his record
is exceptionally good as a member of
the Georgia bar.
The nomination of Eugene Thomas
to be chief judge OF the Municipal
Court of Atlanta apparently is ex-
tremely gratifying to the Atlanta bar
There has been nothing coming be-
fore the Governor however, that has
given him more genuine concern than

Still later both Of these gentlemen
withdrew formally in favor Of McClel-
land and it looked as if McClelland
was to get it without protest. Final
ly both Thomas and Ridley withdrew
their Withdrawals and their indorse-
ments of McClelland and it again
became a question of a choice be-
| tween Thomas and Rid'-v.
