WAGE FIGHT LOOMS
In BUILDING TRADES
Employers Ask Council to Dis
cuss Proposed Cut on
Thursday.

The attempt of the Building Trades
Employers Association to persuade 1O0.-
900 employees to accept 2 wage cut of
81 day now and thus avert a deeper
cut after January l next. when the
present agreement expires, has thus far
como only to this The twenty-five
union groups affected have politely re-
ferred the employers to the Building
Trades Council. with which alone any
question regarding wages must be dis
cussed.
The board of governors Of the Build
ing Trades Employers Association re-
ceived the reports of the twenty-five
groups yesterday and then sent to the
executive committee of the Building
Trades Council request for joint
meeting to be held at 2 o'clock Thurs
day afternoon. 1t Is believed this meet
ing will be held. as the representatives
of the two great interests in the build
ming trades customarily get together
when either side suggests it.
But the men are all opposed to the
proposed reduction" Patrick Crowley,
head of the Building Trades Council,
said. Instead, they want an increase
in pay"
The attitude of the labor men will
be defined in a meeting of the Building
Trades Council this morning. following
report from the executive committee,
which had long session yesterday
afternoon
The employers organization and the
unions had a wage agreement covering
the period between January l, 1920, and
December 81, 1921. But because of in
creased living cost and of the decision
OF Mayor Hylan. who was made arbiter,
that the wages of the bricklayers should
go up to $40 a day, an increase of
$1.50. the employers consented to 81
increases all along the line, beginning
May l, 1920. Now that the cost Of liv-
ing has subsided somewhat, the en-
ployers contend that this extra increase
should be abolished.
