T|EUP IN
BUILDING
CIRCLES

The General Contractors Association
Of East Chicago and Indiana Harbor have
been in session for three days trying 10
adjust labor problems. The hod car
rIers OF. common laborers are demanding
seventy cents per hour, and eighty cents
for mortar men. bringing their wages
nearly TO par with the skilled mechanic.
This demand IS being refused BY the
contractors. who are willing to agree for
another year at the present scale, sixty
cents for hod carriers and seventy cents
for mortar men
There IS also a difference between the
team owners and teamsters, which the
association has done all in their power
to get them to agree to a fair wage. The
association IS organized for the purpose
Of working IN harmony with all parties
concerned in the building trades to give
a square deal to bath the laborer and
consumer. They are also working joint
lv with the Hammond and Gary associ-
atoms to arrive at a reasonable conclu-
sion.
The fact that ell the contractors arc
united in this stand for the good Of
building interests gives reason for q
speedy settlement.

THE WAY TO
STOP THE REDS

The Times believes that the
way to stop bolshevism in Lake
County is to stop the haranguing
Of excitable foreign-born by
speakers in Russian, Croatian
or any other foreign language.
These infammatory speeches
are against the United States
and the constitution. They are
seditious. These foreign speak
ers 90 the limit. The police
cannot understand them. They
would not dare to say in English
what they rant in a foreign
tongue. Good old United States
is the only language for Ameri-
cans. The minute any man
talks to a crowd in a foreign
tongue clap him in Jail. Arrest
him for provoke, for he is incit-
ing a riot.
