The communication was signed by
Jack Stuart, secretary of the hodcar-

No. 1917.
Contractors Oppose Increase.
Local contractors are unanimous
n the belief that the demands of the
strikers are extravagant. Many of
them fatty refuse to even consider
the increase.
Strikers point to the fact that they
are only asking the same scale now
being paid in other cities for the
same kind of work. The strikers
are meeting at the Labor temple to
determine what action shall be taken
to enforce the demands.
1t is claimed by the Vaughn Con-
struction company that the present
controversy has affected them but
little. The company is engaged in
erecting a plant for the Overland

skilled and unskilled, struck We'd
nesday to enforce their demand for
higher pay. A flat increase of from
10 to IS cents an hour is demanded
by the strikers. They ask for 80 to
IS cents an hour with time and
half for all overtime and double
time for Sundays and holidays.
Construction work in the city is
practically at standstill, many of
the locals affiliated with the labor
ers having walked out in sympathy
with the strikers.
Stop Work on Packing Plant.
All work~on the Skinner Packing
company plant has been suspended
by Collins Brothers Construction
company, who are erecting it. Men
who refused to walk out with the
strikers were paid off, as the work
had practically stopped by the labor
ers' refusal to work. About, 400 men
have been affected by the action
taken by the Collins Construction
company.
A committee composed of mem
bers of the building trades council
is meeting with the heads of the
construction company and the Skin
ner Packing company IN an effort
to perfect some temporary agree
ment whereby the men may be
enabled to return to work pending
the settlement of the controversy.
Demands Made April IL.
The demands of the strikers were
made known on April II to all local
contractors. At the time it had been
understood that unless contractors
complied with the demands a strike
would be declared.
Following is the schedule Of
wages demanded in a circular sent
to all contractors on April IL:
Hold carriers, mortar mixers,
plaster tenders of all descriptions,
scaffold building and concrete mix

John Glib, secretary Of the
Building Trades council and head
of the Electricians local No. %.
stated that the trouble is the out
growth of the attitude Of the Build.
ers' exchange. an organization com.
posed of the majority OF the local
contractors.
He stated that the exchange had
refused to recognize, or deal with
the building laborers' union. The
question of wages is not the prin-
cipal one involved, he stated. The
right Of the laborers to organize for
their own protection will be de-
manded. If the Builders exchange
would agree to meet with a COM
m.ttee, of the builders union the
differences could be easily settled,
Glib says.
Many of the contractors not con-
nected with the Builders exchange
have already reached an agreement
with their men and it is expected
that they will return to work today,
Glib claims. r
Twenty-eight men employed BY
the Drake Construction company
have returned to work, according
to Glib.

The same applies TO amount OF cur

In handling Electrical troubles it
usually takes much more time to To-

After a battery has been overhauled
tests can be made that show if plates
