PAINTERS VOTE
SYMPATHY WITH
ALL CRAFTSMEN
Union Men to Decline ANY
Wage Cut-Crafts to Meet
in Hall Tonight.

The Painters union Of the Trade
Council OF South Bend went on
record in it's meeting held Thursday
night 10 fall In line with the rest OF
the craftsmen Of the city by refusing
to accede to the wage decrease pro-
posed by several contractors Of the
city upon the expiration of their
contracts. Rather than submit to
the decrease they assert they will
hang up their overalls and refuse to
Tx.
John Hostetler, business agent Of
the painters, announced that busi-
ness has been exceptionally good in
their line Of work. Only a few of
the building contractors in the city
refused TO renew the old wage scale
of 81 per hour and not one man be-
longing to the union is out OF en-
ployment. In fact there is a short
age of painters, Mr.. Hostetler de
clares.
on the other hand the three
major trades connected in the pres
ent turmoil, the carpenters. masons
and plasterers. have decided TO work
for only those building contractors
who have not decreased their wage
scale. Those contractors who pro-
posed the decrease listed have been
listed by the craftsmen as unfair.
and no work is being done for them.
However should they desire to hire
the men at the previous scale,
union leaders in the city declare that
they will not prohibit the men from
going to work for them.
As It now stands those contractors
listed in the unfair" category who
refuse to maintain the present wage
scale are branded by the craftsmen
as guilty Of what IS termed in labor
circles "a lockout However the
