CARPENTERS SCORE TRIUMPH !
OVER CONTRACTORS

carpenters have passed the buck to
the Carpenter Contractors assn.
The carpenters have accepted the
plan of the state arbitration board
and declared willingness to mediate
with the contractors. 1t is evident
that this move is not pleasing to the
contractors, but it is believed they
will gracefully accede to mediation
proceedings, knowing they would be
damned by public opinion if they did
not. They will make decision by
Thursday
Mediation does not mean arbitra-
ton. The former means no more
than open discussion.
Nothing said or done during me-
diation would be binding. Action
taken during an arbitration meeting
would be binding. The state board
hopes that arbitration may follow the
getting together of the factions for
mediation.
Labor, leaders are not displeased
with the situation. Not all journey
men are out of work. OF 10000 out
side carpenters, 1000 are employed
and there is work with fair con-
tractors for 5000 more as soon as
material can be secured. Of 270 con-
tractors employing the 5000 inside
carpenters, So have signed the ia
vorable agreement, which 800 outside
carpenter contractors have signed.
Officials of the painters and lath-
ers' union say they have more men
at work than there were working at
any time last winter. R. C. Stewart,
business agent of the hardwood fin
ishers, has been especially success
full in getting big contractors to sign
his unions agreement.

voted to refuse to sell lumber to con-
tractors who are employing union
men in opposition to the contractors
