A Boston Builder and
His Fight With the Unions

leaders kept after the men. BAD feeling

some concrete forms that the work had
to be done over, and on Monday they
struck. In two days 40 men applied for
the vacant places, and the builder man

Tact and patience helped him. One,
for example, was 50 weak and emaclated
he could hardly handle a hammer.
Without work for six months, destitute,
with big family, he was not physically
fit to toni. The builder advanced him
money day by day. He is now one of
the most active men in the force. Thus
the employer builds UP his gang
These delegates tried many times in
directly to beat this builder, to pen
alize him somehow for his audaclty in
undertaking to fight the, unions. For
example, the bids for plasterlng were
very nigh. He rejected them all Then
five contractors, all strangers, without
solicitation, submitted bids so low that
he became suspicious. investigation

the unions.
Experienced builders well know the
game probably intended i'll this case

advance money as the work progresses
then by collision the contractors would
stop naying the men for few weeks
and quit the job without warning. The
owner would have to make good the

be quite high enough when he got to the
end of his plastermg. This builder
avoided the trap; he hired his own men,
foreman and all. at so cents an hour,
and saved himself large amounts both OF
money and trouble. Several OF the men
at the outset were not AL plastCrcrs,
but they wanted work, and he paid them

and supporters.
The trap was tried many times. as by
