The local Syndicate, mentioned
in these columns last week, is to

of this city, who win have en-

trades workers were given slight wage
decreases and new working rules
were set up in the arbitration decision
Judge Landis handed today. The de-
cision opened the Chicago territory TO
call contracting firms and, according
to contractors and union men, opened
the way to renewal of millions OF dol
lars worth of construction. A top
price of SLIP 12 for fire proofers and
$110 for bricklayers against the form
er hourly rate of $1.25 was fixed by
the decision, which affects about 50,-
900 workers.
Some of New Rules
Among the new rules laid down in
an effort to prevent strikes and lock
outs, and reduce the cost of construct
ion. are clauses providing that in case
of scarcity of help, non union men
may work with union men; that small
tasks requiring not over thirty, min
utes may be performed by workman
of another trade; that there. be no re-
striction as to the amount of work a
