Agreements With Union
Signed By Forty
Shoe Bosses
BY /. ROSENBERG

Forty shoe manufacturers have
already signed agreements with the
United Shoe and Leather Workers
Union Twenty Of these manufac-
turers organized themselves as the
Shoe Manufacturers Adjustment
Committee who signed a collective
agreement with our union, which at
the same time is binding every in
dividual manufacturer, regardless
of whether he remains member
of the Association or not. Twenty
manufacturers sign individual con-
tracts. Nineteen slipper manufac-
turers are now negotiating with our
union the renewal of agreements
and new prices, the agreements ex-
piring Sept. l. Seven chi1dren's shoe
shops. small establishments are
negotiating for renewal of contracts.
In the slipper shops, several manu-
facturers have already signed the
new agreements.
In this article I wish to dwell
mainly on the results of settlements
in the shoe factories. AS already
stated in previous articles one of
the main detectives was to bring
up the lower paid departments in
the shops to a higher standard
using the minimum hourly rates as
the measure to guide ourselves by.
One of the tasks was to determine
precisely the average hourly earn
ings. Invariably the manufacturers
would take position that their
employees are earning their mini
mum and when proven the con-
trary. their next claim would be
that their workers are exceptionally
slow. 1t required careful sitting

Manner from SO to SO cents with
new extras; Sacks g. Shame from
so to 50 cents with new extras.
Warner from As to 40 cents base.
Lax 81 Abowitz from 81 to so cents.
Seymour Troy from 60 to SO cents
base. The same proportion holds
good for the heeling department
running from 1 to cents increase
on the base in quite number of
shops. The fitting departments
presented two problems. First the
problem of adjusting prices of fancy
stitching and folding on the basis
of the go cents per hour; second,
the readjustment of prices of base
operations, such as, edge stitching,
binding, closing, lining making.
Where the time rate was less than
so cents the new agreement pro-
vides, of course, for the new rate.
The base prices have been set
tied more or less uniformly, hav-
ing in view two things, the hourly
rate, as we'll as the general price
level. On the basic operation the
increases run from one-half cent
to one cent per pair.
The question of the week work
ers, semi-skilled as well as the I'M
skilled is best explained if we again
go through a number of shops, as
examples: In the Brass, for ex-
ample, the Union succeeded in get
ting a raise for "a week workers,
receiving an increase from one to
four dollars per week. The average
increase amounts to $50 per week
for the 81 week workers. In this
shop every other department re-
ceived wage increases.
The same can be said about the
Stone shop and about the Becker
& Friedman shop where 20 week
Workres received a 2 per cent in
crease. In the Goldstein Footwear,
five week workers received 50 a

Many Gains Won For
Workers in Strong
Fight For Demands

in the country that is entering a
new year, with more pay for the
workers, with more power to advance
and prepare for the future, with
membership that stands solid and
united under its leadership. This
is an achievement.
This leads to our next steps. First,
to consolidate every gain we have
made, to be watchful about our
conditions in the shop To sharpen
our activities amongst all shoe
workers with the objective of rails
ing the question of the 30-hour
week with increased pay not as
theoretical problem, but as a
problem of forging the widest unity
Of action of all shoe workers in
order to be prepared to struggle for
these demands. Unemployment in
the shoe industry is not decreas-
ing, but on the contrary it is in
creasing; production has not risen
since last year, but dropped The
action is, preparation for struggle
for the 30-hour week and for I'M
employment insurance, for immedi-
ate relief for the unemployed. Let
us go forward in confidence in our
organized strength, in the feeling
that We have a rank and file union
that stands on guard to protect the
best interests of all shoe workers.
Again, at this time, we say to
all our members and all shoe york
ers, Let us build our organization
let us constantly strike to improve
in our work, but above all let us
remember that our victory lies in
our following a clear line of class
struggle"

at the exact hour But in no case
has any shops crew loosened up
its grip upon the situation. The
crew has always stood ready to
follow instructions of the union
With many shops prolonging nego-
tiations for days, with all the shops
crews holding two or three meet
ings before the final settlement was
agreed to, we can say that only
the understanding that our mem
bership and the shop committees
has had of the question involved,
only the loyalty and confidence of
the workers in our organization,
made it possible for the union to get
the fullest cooperation of the
workers in the shops and thus COM
plete the work in the course of two
and one-half weeks, covering every
shop to q, satisfactory degree.
PROFESSIONALLY the workers will
have an opportunity to discuss our
