Building Trades
 Unions Will Clear Up Jurisdictions

Washington, March A.--There will be no more strikes of building trade" unions growing out of disputes over division of work.
 Agreement has been reached, it was announced at American Fedora ton of Labor headquarters today that the many unions represented on the construction work will abide by the decisions of representativ boards now in session here which will set tie finally all troublesome questions, The assignment of work to the diff ferent trades will continue in effect indefinitely and in case further dis putes arise there will be a resort to arbitration as in the present in- stance rather than cessation of work.
 Union officials and representatives of the American institute architect meeting with the building trade dele gates, said the agreement to be given formal expression by the joint board was one of the most important in the history of union labor. It was em- phasized as especially important just now, when building activity in every state is greater than ever before in the effort to make up the shortage of homes and business structures resulting from the curtailment of construction during the war.
 With the elimination of one fruit ful cause for disputes, members of the conference said d<they looked to new record in construction this summer.
