Eventually it was decided to throw the company to the wolves in the case of the brick- layers in the interest of the great number, with the understanding that Mr, Green would exert his good offices in its bebalf.

Thornton of Boston, acting president of the bric! , insisted on a surrender y point, and in the end, after contracts had been written and torn up, got it. By the terms of the agreement, in which the Fuller Co. declares its sym- pathy with and adhesion to the union shop, the 150 or 8o non-union brick- layers now in the service of the com- pany are to be immediately discharged and work resumed under union condl- tions Tuesday morning. Non-union tile layers and masons who may have been employed by the Fuller Co. also will be discharged The union, on its part, agrees to do its | best to supply full forces immediately. | Board to Settle Grievances. Tho next move will be the selecting of the tribunal to investigate and ad- fust the grievances of the two unions t Is understood that each will name two men, and the four thus named a fitth, with Mr. Green, in the event of the four being unable to agree, nam- ing the odd man. The first question to be taken up in all probability will' be the status of the dual unions of cement finishers in New York. This is expected to be stralghtened out early, and after nec- essary preliminary investigations the board will proceed to Florida, where the trouble started over the setting up of plasterers’ locals, to investigate conditions there. In the end s plebi- scite will be held to determine who is who in that State. Several months probably will elapse before this latter part of the work is undertaken. There is an ad- vantage in delay, for in time the weather in Florida and tempers will be_cooled. Horo- | 5, Ends 30 Years’ Service CHARLES A. LANGLEY. CIVIC WORKER QUITS POST HELD 30 YEARS Charles A.
