PEACE BETWEEN
AND.
WORKERS NEAR
New Wage Scales Signed,
nd General Tendency to
Adjust Differences.
STRIKES NOT LIKELY
Numerous Increases Re-
ported in Wage Scales
in All Trades.

The approach of the May 1 period
finds the following outstanding fea-
lures in the building trades situation
throughout the country: New wage
scales being signed up on the basis of
substantial increases; practically a
100 per Get employment of labor, the
bonus system still generally existent
and likely to continue, and a general
tendency to adjust differen.>5 in such
a way as not 10 disturb the progress
of building activities, according to a
general building labor survey just COM
pleted.
The necessity OF practical recipro-
city and cooperation between employ
ers and employees is now so apparent
to all concerned that a radical stand
on the part of either side does not at
this time seem likely, the survey
shows. An analysis Of the new wage
adjustments which I've recently been
made in various cities shows that labor
is inclined TO fully compensate itself
in keeping with the great demand for
it and the increased cost of living, and
that builders are endeavoring TO hold
the unions within bounds which will
not make future construction prohibi-
tive on the score of cost.
Peace in Chicago.
In Chicago, negotiations have been
completed which may insure peace for
some time between workmen and en-
ployers, the Chicago Building Trade
Council having signed a three-year
agreement with the building ConStruc-
ton Employers Association, with the
Lands Award as the basis for all dis
putes. Bricklayers have signed an
agreement of s1.25 per hour which
practically sets the new scale for other
skilled workers in the Chicago district.
Lands Award carpenters now receiv.
ing 81 an hour will receive S1.15 after
May 81. Carpenters not working I'M
der the Lands award have served no.
tice that they want S1.25 an hour and
it is reported that contractors will pay
that scale. Similar increases asked by
structural iron workers, plumbers,
plasterers and steam filters will prob
ably be granted. The painters who
want an increase from Csc an hour to
S125 have already signed an agree
ment with employers making Saturday
holiday. The tile layers unions
(fire-proofers) have signed new

agreement with the Fireproofer's Asso-
citation, granting them loo an hour
increase. or $l.2T12 per hour rate.
In Minneapolis a new scale effec-
tive June ] grants 10 per cent in
crease to all skilled labor, which ap-
plies 10 thirteen other Minnesota cities.
In Louisville carpenters have signed
for an increase; in Duluth contractors
have decided 10 grant an increase to
most trades effective June l, ranging
from 10 and 1919 per cent. In At
lanta, Ca, and Columbus, Ohio, in
creases have been granted and in Buff
gallo bricklayers are receiving S1.2o an
hour which includes q bonus of PKG.
In st. Louis, bricklayers are demand
ing Sl.j0 an hour and painters have
signed up for S1.05 until May l when
the scale will go to S1.1212. In De.
troit some trades have been increased
20 per cent. in Kansas City, common
labor is paid as high as 75c an hour.
Labor Shortage In South.
In many important southern cities
a shortage of labor is reported and
any new wage scales are based upon
this situation. In Oklahoma City
steam filters threaten to strike unless
they are granted $40 day; in Boston,
increases have been allowed for 1923
with further increases in 1924; in
City all trades not still under
contract have been granted increases;
in the Pittsburg district increases have
been granted from 10 to 25c an hour,
for skilled mechanics, and laborers are
Coo with an increase of Toe
after July l.
In San Francisco there is shortage
IF labor, and contractors are nearly all
paying more than the scale; in Nash
vile. Tenn, the labor situation is re-
ported easier with five cuts in wages
and two increases effective May 1; in
Omaha, Neb.. five trades have signed
agreements and the building crafts

10 work at S1.10 an hour. an increase

NO CEMENT TAX
Knebel Says Committee Opposed Ia
Taxing State Industry.

G. NJ. Knebel, executive vice presi-
dent OF the Texas State Manufacture
ers' Association. has just returned
from Austin. On Wednesday night he
attended hearing before the revenue
and taxation committee of the House
on bill introduced by Representative
Quinn which would place. il passed a
) per cent sales tax on Portland &C.
ment. Mr.. Knebel stated to the COM
mittee that he did not consider it just
or fair to single out few industries
and place upon them the burden Of
taxation.
The committee. after going into the
proposed bill very fully, voted unani-
mously that the bill be reported back
to the House unfavorable with the rec.
ommendation that it do not pass.
