WORKERS DEMAND REHEARING OF CASE Insist However, This Is Not Re- jecting Landis’ Finding Chicago, Sept. 10.—Two construc- tions today were being placed on the unanimous vote of the Chicago build- ing trades council declaring the Lan- dis wage award “unjustifiable’ and ex- pressing the “‘universal dissatisfaction™ of the workers over the decision of Judge K. M. Landis as arbiter in the building trades controversy. Wage cuts of ten to 33 per cent. were made in the Landis decision. Buildars and contractors held labor's verdict and demand for a re-hearing as tantamount or rejection of the award. Others asserted labor had not broken its pledge to abide by the de- cision and termed the action “an ac- ceptance under protest.” The declaration of the union bodies and the request for a re-hearing today was considered a serious setback to the prospective peace in the Chicago building world and the proposed im- mediate starting of $100,009,000 worth of building and the emplovment of nearly 50,000 men. Members of building trades unions on a number of jobs vesterday threw down their tools. Thomas Kearney, president of the building trades coun- cil today expressed his intention to try to keep the workers on the job until decision regarding a re-hearing had been reached, but admitted that it would be a dig task. At the meeting of the trades council, dissatisfaction was heard on every side and among all unions, he asserted. James Conroy, secretary of the building council asserted that the ac- tion of the council in asking for a re- hearing did not constitute a rejection of tho Landis award reducing wages from 10 to 33 per cent. The workers merely expressed their intention of re- fusing to work for what they consid- ered inadequate wages, he said. E. M. Craig, secretary of the build- ing construction employers’ associa- tion, on the other hand, characterized the action as a virtual rejection of the agreement and expressed his belief that no re-hearing will be granted so long as the men fail to star on the job. The action of the building trades council and the request for a re-hear- ing is to be submitted today to Judge Landig, who is on a vacation at Burt Lake, Mich. FIREMEN ON VACATION. Captain M. W.
