Garment Workers
To Strike To-day
Slack Season Minii,,,izes
Effect Of Walkout; All
Parties Good N0tured

BY order of Benjamin Schlesinger
internatlonal president of the Ladies
Garment Workers Union, union en-
p!ioyes of 2,400 cloak, skirt and REFER
shops will strike at 10 o'clock this
morning for the forty-four-h week
a weekly wage instead of the piece sys-
tenn, higher wages and the guaranteed
ing by the manufacturers Of payment
for all work done for them by sub
contractors
Nominally $4,000 workers, mostly
men, are affected. Actually not more
than half of that number will quit
work, for this is between seasons in
the trade and few shops have full crews
at work. In others few hands are
employed on sample garments. Yet
others have no work on hand, and ex-
pect none much before June Is.
The strike starts with the best of
feeling existing between the $50 mem
bers of the Cloak, Suit and Skirt Man
ufacturers' Associatio" and the union.
These $50 employ but a minority of
the cloak makers, although they have
the largest output, operating through
ub-contractors and the smaller shops.
Saul Singer, president of the associa-
ton, and Mr.. Schlesinger headed com
mittees which yesterday discussed the
situation at the Hotel Astor. They
were agreed that a strike was the
only way out, both sides expressing the
opinion that within. month an agree
ment could be had on wages and the
question of substituting day work for
piece work, which are the only ones
in dispute.
An agreement in this time would
mean little real loss to the trade, which
ordinarily does not begin on fall and
winter business much before July l..
Should it extend beyond that time, it
is explained, it would occasion loss
and disturb the pleasant relations now
existing between the association and
the unions.
The real fight will be against the
smaller contractor. The average num-
Der employed in the small shops is not
above twenty-five and it is anticipated
that difficulty will be experienced in
forcing these employers to agree to
the changes demanded and which the
larger manufacturers are eXpectd to
accept within a short time.

Bankers Are Ready to
Lend Cash to Builders

Heads Of banking houses which
make extensive loans to promote build
ing operations declared yesterday that
the present lack Of construction of
apartment houses IN New York is not
due to any unwllingness to advance
money to builders. They asserted that
any legitimate building project will re-
ceive from banks as much encourage
ment now as before the war.
One of the reasons advanced by
builders for the lack of apartment
house building to relieve the conges-
tion and check soaring rents was that
they were unable to obtain loans on
advantageous terms.
One builder, who complained of his
inability to obtain loans to build five
story 75x100-foot apartment house
asked loan of $102,5OO on a building
which, when completed, would be val
ued, with the lot, at S107,5OO, it was
said yesterday.
81 do not believe it is their inability
to obtain LOANS which is dscouraging
builders. One buile told me he could
purchase apartment buildings COM
pleated at less than it costs to build
them"

Municipal court justices, real estate
operators and storage warehouse own
ers declared that new record for the
sub-letting of apartments for the sum-
mer months has been established.
They agreed that the practice will
partly relieve the situation, but pre-
dicted that the fall will find the city
fscing the most appalling housing
shortage of its history. Justice Solo
mon Oppenheimer, of the Sixth Munich
pal Court, pointed out that conditions
in October might be so critical that
even a programme of intensive con-
struction would fail to relieve them.
Warehouses are reaching their ca
racity. as hundreds of families store
their effects and move into sub-let
snartments. said C. S. Morris, presi-
don't of the Van Owners Association Of
Crater New York Mr.. Morris, who
has been associated with the storage
and moving business for thirty years,
characterized the present housing con-
di.ions as unprecedented.
No Moving Going On
There is practically no moving" he
said. "For five months families of the
middle class will not feel the discom-
fort of the shortage. But when the
summer season closes and families
pour back into the city, those who have
occupied their homes will be forced to
search through already overcrowded
sections for new homes.
"Hundreds, perhaps thousands, of
families will be forced into the street.
Building operations on a tremendous
scale must begin Immediately, or the
city will be confronted with housing
crisis which it cannot meet.

ing their capacity. There will be
shortage of storage facilities soon.
