BUILDINGTRADES
PLANFIGHT ON
OPEN SHOP
HeaIey Strike May Result in Gen.
eraI WaIkout-Low Wage
Scale Claimed.

A fight against the open shop in the
building trades section of the FEEDER
alton of Labor that promises to be
the hardest in the history of organ
lied labor in Atlanta will be the out
come of the strike on the Healey
Building unless a settlement IS
reached shortly
International officers representing
the fourteen organizations composing
the Building Trades Council are either
in Atlanta or on their way here A
meeting of the Building Trades Coun-
ell will be held Friday night, when
steps looking to a settlement of the
differences or to arrange for a finish
fight will be taken.
officers Of the building trades con-
cerned in the controversy state that
wages in Atlanta ere 80 per cent lower
than in other Southern cities, and
they attribute this to the fact that in
Atlanta alone is the open shop per-
mitted.
The open shop as operated in Al
lanta, according to the officers of the
building trades, is that only that class
of work requiring the greatest skin
and which can alone be done by mem
bers Of the organization is done oy
union men, while all other work is
put in the hands of non union men
In this way, the results to the con-
tractor can be attained and the unions
get the worst of it.
The strike precipitated by the con
tractors putting non-union men work
ing on the cutting of the pipe for the
electrical contract will mean finish
fight between the Building Trades
Council and the contractors against
the open shop, and may tie up work
in Atlanta for some time.
The work on the Healey Building
is at a standstill, not a sound being
heard from the new skyscraper, and
this silence may continue for many
days unless the closed shop is accept
ed by the contractors.

PRE EslDENT WILSON FACING sE- RIous PROBLEM IN THE MAT
 TER OF REVISION.
DON'T AGREE WITH LEADERS
Wilson Has Not Vet Decided Upon the Manner in Which Revision Shall Be Taken up--Must
 Decide Soon.

Washington, April 2.-President Wilson was tonight face to face with the most serious phases of tariff re- vision.
 With the work on the house ways and means committee before him and lhe extra session of congress only few days off the president proceeded far enough into his study of the tariff bill to realize that before the demo- cratic caucus met there were many points upon which he himself must take a definite stand. It was admit ted at the white house that he wonld do so ''in day or two"
 It was declared also that the presi- dent had not finally made up his mind as to whether the tariff should be revised schedule by schedule or ill single bill, whether sugar should be put on the free list or given a reasonable amount of protection and whether the income tax should be by flat rate or graduated. These and kindred questions the president has not yet decided absolutely; but from what he told his callers today. taef6 was well defined impression of his inclinations. The president leans fo ward revision by single bill. He thinks the income tax question can only be decided after ali agreement has been reached upon tariff rates. He believes that sugar should go on the free list. but is open to conviction on that point. The president aas been hearing arguments that people in Louisiana could readjust their busi- ness to meet the new conditions inl- posed by line removal of the tariff on sugar.
 Tonight the preDident talked over the tariff situation with Senator Wm. Hughes. of New Jersey, member of lhe new finance committee. Senator Simmons, chairman of the committee, sought an appointment with the president and tomorrow will bring with him Senators Stone and Hoks Smith also of the finance committee. for discussion of the tariff bill
 The president devoted most of tk2 day to talking tariff He discussed the woolen schedule with Mir. Rainey of Illinois. The latter Is an advo- cate of free wool and, on coming away from the white house, said he was perfectly we'll satisfied with tho presidents attitude. It Is hacwn that the president believes in big reduc. tion on wool. but whether 1t extends to removal of all the duty is poi x- that has not been definitely dis closed.
 Members of the ways and means committee, after an all day session today spent in perfection of tariff bill details, declared there was no substantial difference of opinion be- tween the committee and the presi- dent over the duty to be imposed on farm products. The committee has cut the agricultural duties over 50 per cent in the new bill While President Wilson Is understood to fa- yor further cut in some of thenS members of the committee declared tonight that a complete agreement would be reached with the president without difficulty

 Not one of the bomb throwers re- turned, but they had accomplished their object and the Montenegrin in fantry following close upon them charged the trenches.
 The Turks covered their ground and a desperate, bloody, hand to hand fight ensue,i. lasting an hour and ending in victory for the Montene- grins who lost 300 men killed anS wounded, Tier after tier of entrencl- ments had to be taken, but the troops of the southern division under Gen eral Martinovitch, to whom the task had been assigned, overcame all ob- stacles.
 The tactics followed, particularly in regard to the use of bomb throwers, were similar to those adopted in the capture of Adrianople. But in the advance on Adrianople the soldiers wio cut and divided the wire en- tanglements surrounding the forts, were clad in cuirasses and provided with shields. At Taraboscih the rough mountainside made it neces- sary for the Montenegrins to dis pense with all impediments.

AMERICAN INDUSTRY
 Is JUST AWAKENING
NEW SECRETARY OF COMMERCE THINKS TRUSTS WILL GIVE
 BETTER SERVICE.

New York. April 2.--Amerlcan in dustry has long been a sleeping giant and is but now awakening: the coun- try is just reaching out to take aer place in the commercial arena of the world. in tlse opinion of William c. Redfield, secretary of commerce. who addressed the graduating class of the New York trade school tonight.
 The great corporations that carry on big business are adjusting them selves to meet the will of the peo. ple,' said Secretary Redfield. They begin to realize that their security lies in service and in that alone. The men within the mill are admitted on every hand to be of far greater value than the mill itself and profits are deemed wrong that spring from re- pression of the worker. The indus tries of America are shaking off the shackles. and face serenely the pros poets of competition, before whicn many of them have covered in the past.
 The products of our steel mills go abroad at the rate of d million dol lars daily We are exporting the out put of our factories to the extent of almost fifteen hundred millions a year
 Great as this total is. it is of great CT import when we compare 1t with the past: the rate of increase in our foreign trade in manufactures of all kinds during the present fiscal year Is thus far at the rate of ahout ha v a million dollars day. Ill manufac- lures ready for consumption our for eign trade has increased in the eight months ending with February by eiehty-eight millions of dollars. We are more than holding our own in the foreign field.
