Chicago Federation of Labor. The terms, of the, meat market em- ployes' organization as presented to the employers in New Trier Town- + ship were considéréd so radical and "'uncomproértising' as' to actually take "away the employer's right of prop- 'rietorship lin his own business, back- 4 ed by 'his own capital and for the "tonduct : 6f 'which' he' alone 'is held the New 'Trier Commercial associa- tion, was that the dictitoriat demands of the tinion would necessitate an - imniediaté advance in prices of from 5.to0 10:'pet cent." 7' Trier.

Articles in the.terms of the Amal- gamated Meat Cutters and Butcher © Workmen of North America which were responsible for strenuous ob- jection on the part of the employers and which were summarily rejected, it was said, were briefly as follows: "Article 10. When in need of help, employer shall give preference to members in good standing of local 241 A. M. C. and B. W. of N. A. (Ev- anston local). When non-union men are employed they shall file applica- tion for membership in local 241 not later than one week after date of employment. ; readily have the effect of seriously injuring a business in the between the formal notification and the actual time of expiration of the employes' services. : ; Other clauses in the proposed, agreement establish a nine hodr work day, except 'Saturdays and days preceding holidays when the work day is extended to 13 hours. There is{_ not to be more than one hour over- time in any particular day and all work performed between 8 A. M. and 6 P. M. behind locked doors is con- strued as overtime and paid for at}! aprons to the meat cutters in the shap without charge to the meat cutter. Holidays designated by the agree- ment are : Labor Day, Christmas Day, unday, Decoration Day, Fourth of July, Thanksgiving Day and New Years' Day. Wages of meat cutters in New Trier shops range from $25 to $35 at the present time, it is said. Some especially competent men are now re- ceiving nearly the wage minimum established by the union. Such men, the employers insist, would be justi- fieid in demanding much higher than the established minimum wage scale by reason of their ability and ex- perience. A clause in the proposed agreement provides for no reduction | of wage in the instance of a man re- ceiving higher than the minimum wage.
