Mr.. Phillips further stated that he
was informed from a reliable source
that gunner, and leaders Of strike
breakers were under cover in the city,
ready to import workers or to "start

The fighting commissioner further
reported that Messrs. Mcleod &
Smith signified willingness to finish
the work and to pay the old scale,
but that the builders Soviet had de-
MED permission for the firm to pay
more than the reduced wage, fixed by
the Soviet.
Commissioner Murnian said that It

against the contractors and that the
proper method seemed to be to prose-
cute for that offense.
There was a big and hot meeting
the next day in the city hall. Mr..
Phillips said:

DULUTH'S BUILDING TRADES

Contractors Fail TO Finish City Building Seemingly Fearing

John L. Morrison in The Rip Saw:

John L. Morrison in The Rip Saw:
Bolshevism is credited with being
the cause of suspension OF work on the
new city building for the water and
light department. This Bolshevism is
backed. so it is alleged. by Live
Wire" Armstrong; Soviet, the Build
ers' Exchange. Messrs. Mcleod &
Smith seemingly fear to continue the
work against the wishes of the Rus
sian bunch. Bricklayers, who are
home-owners, taxpayers and long res
idents, are walking the streets, while
imported gunner and craftsmen are
credited with being close at hand to
take the local work if occasion re-
quires and opportunity permits.
Messrs. Mcleod & Smith secured
the contract to ervct the new city
building. Their bids were based on a
wage of $1.25 an hour for bricklay.
ers. The work was to be finished May
1 and it was taken for granted that
wage rates would not be changed
while the work was going on. Any re-
duction would materially increase the
contractors profits.
Not long since, Messrs. Mcleod &
Smith cut the wages of bricklayers 20
per cent. 1t is understood and be-
lieved that each and every member

OF Live Wire, Armstrong; Soviet
agreed to put wage reductions into ef-
feet, despite the fact that negotiations
with craftsmen to that end were not
opened.
The bricklayers refused to accept
reduction while the contract was un-
finished and they walked off the Job.
No strike was called-the men merely
quit work.
City commissioner Phillips did not
take kindly to the idea Of having the
completion of the city's building de-
layed, especially because it was i'm
perative to get into it by May 1. A
week ago last Monday, the Little Com
moner brought the situation before
his fellow commissioners. He asked
that the council call a. joint session
with the contractors. He reported that
the contractors were willing to con-
tinue the old scale of wages until the
JOB was finished. but that Live Wire

streets at present.; with wives and
families at home in need. The ques-
ton is, do we want few men who
style themselves the Builders ex-
change to- rule the city? Mcleod &
Smith are fair. They do not wish
outside men to come in on this work.
Neither do I.
THE contract was entered into and
the building started with the verbal
understanding that the men who
worked on the building would be paid
the same scale during the time of con-
struction of the building. Then an in
visible influence stepped in and said,
hands off, All Task is for the Build
ers' exchange to be fair and to grant
these contractors the. right to COM
plete the building at the same rate Of
pay as was started in the beginning.

While Duluth boxing fame have seen
some wonderful exhibitions OF science
and smuggling this season it must be
said that the next INIT" carnival Of
the Duluth Athletic club, which will
be staged at the Shrine auditorium on
Wednesday evening. March 30, looks
in advance to be the best of the year
to date.
Neil Allison, the Morgan Park slug
ger, who has knocked out more oppo-
nents than all other Duluth fighters
combined, will meet Kid Billings of
Superior. Wisconsin's best welter-
weight, in the main event, a sched-
uled 10-round quarrel. It is just an
other one of those Duluth Superior
affairs in athletics in which one city
is trying to down the other, and, as
such, will prove mighty attractive
magnet. Betting on this battle so far
favors Allison to win by knockout
and he is being literally supported by
the several thousands of employees at
the Minnesota Steel company's plant
where he is employed.
Billings has a mighty following over
In Superior who favor him to defeat
Allison and by such g. margin as to
leave no room for doubt. The Badger
fans point to the fact that Jack Brit
ton, worlds championship welter-
weight, couldn't stop Billings in 10
rounds, so it is hardly likely that AL.
lison will be able to accomplish the
feat.
The great Al Van Ryan, the sturdi-
est and fastest lightweight developed
in Minnesota in recent years will APP
pear in the semi-windup number, an
