given to Voltaire (1694-177S), the
French philosopher, of whom Thomas
Carlyle said, "Voltaire is the Eigh-

BUILDING TRADE
STILL TIED UP
Conflicting Claims Made
by Contractors and
Unions

Conflicting claims were made to.
day regarding the tie-up in build.
ing construction here, brought about
by a wages disagreement between
the contractors and the local build.
ing tradey union. At, special
meeting OF the Fairmont Builders
exchange last night, It was ciaimet.
that practically all Of. the local COT.
tractors were working on an open.
shop basis, while the union leaders
contradtcted this with the state.
ment that fhe only extensive con.
struction work in progress was be-
ing done by union labor.
The union plasterers have volun.
tarily reduced their wages to tina
scale decided upon by the builders
exchange. 1t was pointed out at the
meeting last evening. The brick.
layers, however. have not met the
scale in reducing their wages to
$1.25 an hour, It was said, the rate
set by the exchange being 81 an
hour.
The principal issue involved IN
the dispute, It is believed, is wheth.
er the contractors will adopt an
open.shop basis. No action 70 put
the work on an open.shop basis has
yet been formally taken by the con.
tractors, although It has been init.
mated that such action is conten;,
plated.
