ACTION OF BOSSES MAKE LABOR
WAR SEEM SURE
The official declaration Of war Of
the Building Construction Employers
Assn against the building trades
unions came yesterday with an order
to lock out all unions who fail to sign
the uniform agreement when their
present contracts run out. All SYM
pathy strikers are to be locked out
also.
The action of the bosses puts the
next move up to the union men. They
have already made their stand
against the uniform agreement. They
will strike.
The employers want the union men
to sign an agreement along with the
unions affiliated with the Building
Trades Council, dominated by Simon
O'DonneI. This contract would take
away from the unions the right to
strike for better conditions or to aid
brother union in trouble.
Disputes under the uniform agree,
ment would be settled between the
Building Trades Council heads and
the atty's for the employers, putting
the business agent out of power. The
unions are, in most cases, not asking
raise or better conditions, but wish
a separate agreement with each con-
tractor.

are up to, If l can" He didn't know
how he would stop it; he was talking
more to draw Gee-gee out than for

yers could impeach 1t even if they let

But they probably wouldn't let him

Gee-gee shifted her mental attitude.
She was getting her second breath
and caution whispered to her to con-
troll herself. This handsome young
gentleman had been the most indiffer-
ent member of the quartet on that in
suspicious occasion on the roof; in
deed. he had yawned in the midst Of
festivities. Bob, in love, cared not
for show girls or ponies. He had even
tried to discourage Dan and the 9th

critically. As young-man-sure-of-
himself, he had impressed her on that
other occasion! Instinct had told her
to avoid Bob and select Dan. Now
that same instinct told her 1t might
be better to temporize with this blunt
speaking young gentleman-to
sound him.
