STATEMENT (From P-L, Saturday, May 31) effort to enforce the dition ing room « rday. a! unton emp Post-Intelligencer struck y (2) Thin action was taken after repeated ef on the part of this paper to obtain a con from the union which would afford com- plete protection to its members and ide them with one of the highest wage ecales tn the United States. (2) This action was taken fm the face of an offer on the part of this paper to submit the isnues to arbitration. (4) The contract which the union Inststed accepted was of such an unreasonable ‘ er that po newspaper could submit to its terma end retain control of production. (4) It completely excluded the ownership from the participation in the conduct of Ite compos- ing room. ($) It provided for tmpossible working condi- Uons and unreasonable wager. (7) It perpetuated the Intquitous “dead horae” law under which work done by union printers in other loc has to be done over again be- fore it can be used. This © have required the reproduction of the Amer Weekly Sunday magazine section, which ts produced for the Po: with ‘all union labor in San Franctsco, reproduction ts generally recognized as purely waste of time and money. (8) It obligated the acceptance of a book of rules passed by the local union to cover working conditions: (9) It provided that {t was null and void tt this paper was unable to settle @ contract with any one of its other mechanical departments. (16) It eliminated a previous provision re- quiring arbitration and made it incumbent that should be settied by conciliation Imporsible it granted the union the privilege to strike. (1) It prohibited the transfer of men from one part of the composing room to another ex- cept under certain limitations, for the express purpose of creating work (12) It required a provision that made It prac- Ucally impossible to discharge an employe. (12) It lacked any provision for a joint com- mittee to settle disputes that arise under its operation. (14) It provided for a wage scale from fifty- one dollars to fifty-eight dollars and fifty cents a week, the bulk of the men employed to receive the higher rate. (15) It excluded any condition providing for arbitration on any question under any circum- stances (16) The union, while property insisting that it should be pprmitted to be represented by any one of its own choosing, reserved to itself to insist that this paper should always be repre- sented by its publisher (17) Entirely contrary to the accepted prin- ciples of negotiation, after an adjournment by the joint committee. tle had been taken, with the understanding that such meetings would be resumed at the call of either side, the union succeeded in compelling another paper to sign its contract and then In- sinted that because this contract had been ac- cepted in another office, Its xeceptance by the Post-Inteliigencer Wan mandatory. This places tho Poat-Intelligencer In the position of being required to accept a contract in the making of which It had no volce. (18), This paper was willing to pay an ade- quate Increase in its present high rate of wages. (19) ‘This paper was willing to continue x very rensonable work-day of seven hours of work. In sympathy with the printers, the stereo- typers alao walked out. UNIONS’ REPLY 1, Members of the Typographical Union were compelled to act to secure the same rate of wages and same conditions from the P.-I. that have been granted by all other Seattle newspapers. 2, This action was taken after repeated efforts on the part of the P.-I. to obtain a contract from the Printers (and also from the Mailers and Stereotypers) at less wages, longer hours and dif- ferent conditions than had been granted by other local papers. 8. The unions refused to arbitrate a wage agreement with the P.-I. that had been voluntarily granted by conciliation by all other Seattle publishers. 4. The contract which the three unions agreed to with the other papers is working satisfactorily in every instance. 5. The contract in no sense prevents the owner from participa- tion in conduct of the departments affected through his foremen. 6. It provided for the conditions that have been in existence in Seattle for years (many of them for more than 20 years); it also provided for the same rate of wages agreed to and paid by The Star, Times and Union Record. 7. It provided for foliowing the P.-I. policy of “Supporting Home Industry” on the American Weekly supplement. This sup- plement was reproduced for several weeks when it was first added to the P.-1., and then arbitrarily stopped by the then man- ager, contrary to the letter and spirit of an existing wage agree- ment and an existing arbitration agreement. 8. It provided for acceptance of the rules of the International and local union as a guide (this has been the custom for years) ;" it also provided that where a conflict occurred between the rules and the contract, the terms of the contract should be paramount. 9. It provided that none of the unions affected would support each other in any arbitrary action ‘and also ‘provided that none would support any publisher in an arbitrary action against any of the unions involved. 10. The experience that the Printers and Stereotypers have had with the P.-I, under an arbitration agreement is such as to con- vince them that an arbitration agreement is valueless. 11. The Printers have had a rule covering transfer of mem- bers from different departments for many years. It is intended to prevent discrimination and dissatisfaction between the mem- bers and does not prevent the economical or efficient operation of the composing room. 12, It provided that the foreman could discharge members for incompetency; for neglect of duty; for violation of office rules (which shall be conspicuously posted) or of iaws of the chapel or union, and to decrease the force. 13. It provided that the Executive Committee of any of the three unions involved and the publisher should adjust any con- troversy that arose. 14, It provided for a wage of $8.50 for day work and $9.25 for night work (approved by Hearst executives in New York), and for a 50-cent bonus for those members of the Typographical Union who were compelled to work objectionable shifts, granting a concession of 25 cengs a day to the office for those members who worked favorable hours. 15. Because of our previous experience none of the unions in- volved will enter into an arbitration agreement at this time with the P.-I. 16. The unions involved insist that the fair and harmonious way of determining any question is by conference with the publisher. ' 17. The committees representing the unions made every effort for two months to arrive at an agreement; their efforts were and have been without result as far as the P.-I. was concerned. 18. The P.-I. on May 80, 1924, notified the Printers that -it would pay the wages in effect for the past four years (no in- crease). Similar notice had been previously given to the Mailers’ and Stereotypers’ unions. _ 19. The P.-I. notified all three unions that it would make an increase of one-half hour per day in the working time. The issue involved in the controversy is whether the Mailers, Printers and Stereo- typers will abandon working conditions that have been granted by the Star, Times and Union Record; whether they will accept less wages on the P.-I. than the other newspapers pay, and whether on the other papers. To all of these propositions they will work longer hours on the P.-I. than they do the unions concerned say “No.” The above statement is published for information of the people of this community —members of which, these striking printers and locked-out mailers and stereotypers and their fellow-unionists, are a part.
