An Explanation By The Master Plumbers of Evanston, Wilmette and Kenilworth A Plain Statement of Facts in the Controversy Between the Master Plumbers and the Plumbers Union In Violation of the arbitration award of Judge K. M. Landis, the Piumbers Union has refused to permit its members to work at the arbitrated wage scale, has called a strike in Evanston and has an- nounced that "Never in the future" can union plumbers work for Evanston Master Plumbers who have elected to stand by Judge Lan- dis' decision. The union gave us until last Saturday noon, September 17, 1921, to sign up at the old wage scale of $1.25 per hour, they to ignore their agreement to abide by Judge Landis decision. All but one Evanston master plumber refused to be coerced or intimidated. Tt is important that the public be acquainted with the facts that it may co-operate with the master plumbers in bringing about lower prices and normal American conditions in the building trades. WHY PLUMBERS' WAGE WAS FIXED AT 95c Judge Landis fixed the plumbers' wage at 95¢ per hour, somewhat lower than the wage for other skilled labor, because the plumbers refuse to allow any but union plumbers to do the rough, unskilled labor attendant upon the installation of plumbing. Their rules re- quire that none but union plumbers shall carry plumbing materials into buildings and do other similar unskilled labor. This condition ddes not apoly to other skilled laborers. The Bricklayer, for in- | stance, has his brick and mortar brought to him bv a lower waged | hod carrier. Judge Landis justly ruled that for this sort of work the plumbers are not entitled to pay as skilled laborers. After mak- ing allowance for the average amount of unskilled labor they do he fixed their pay at 95c. He gave them until Nov. 1 to revise their rules with the understanding that he would readjust their wages when they did so. HOW YOU CAN HELP LOWER PLUMBING COSTS When the Master Plumbers and the Plumber's Union agreed to enter into the arbitration of the building trades situation they both bound themselves in honor to accept the award. The union is in- sisting on the same wage scale that prevailed before the arbitration. We are asking the public to help .us uphold Judge Landis' decision, enforce American principles of fair play and bring down the cost of plumbing. We ask you to support us in our refusal to be dictated to, or intimidated by the Plumber's Union -- we want you the realize that we are fighting YOUJR battles for lower prices, as well as our own. We ask you to be patient in our temporary shortage of labor.
