Building Workers
.To Quit Because
Of Cut in Wages
I T1
wuiuJifiTinivnu wmm-
duclion, Says Trade Coun
cil Secretary Some of
Contractors Against Cut.
A strike of all building workers
affected by the 20 per cent wage re
duction unanimously favored by the
Omaha Builders' exchange Wednes
day night, will start this morning,
according to John M. Gibb, secretary
of the Building Trades council.
"The men have voted against ac
cepting a 20 per cent wage cut, and
I believe all of them have the un
derstanding they are Jo quit if the
decrease is made," said Secretary
Gibb.
"There are about 3,000 members
of the Building Trades council now
working. Some downtown jobs will
1 be delayed, but home building will
j . A Mieye the thing
will resolve itself into an endurance
lest in which men, with less over
head expense than the contractors,
will be victorious.
Business Agent R. A. Wilson, of
the Carpenters' union, agreed with
Secretary Gibb that a strike will
occur in the morning wherever con
tractors cut wages.
Offered Compromise.
"I am sorry we even offered to ac
cept a 10 per cent decrease now,"
said Mr. Wilson. "There are about
1,300 'men belonging to carpenters'
unions. Almost 700 of these are em
ployed. We believe, however, that
many contractors will ot insist on
a 20 per cent reduction. Only a part
of the contractors of the 'citywere
present ,at the meeting last night.
ITie carpenters will go out only
where the reduction is insisted on."
Mr. Wilson charged that many
material men were present and that
they influenced contractors to vote
for the 20 per cent cut tomorrow,
when agreements expire.
Hopes to Avert Strike.
"We weren't admitted at the meet
ing, but we could see who went in
ana came out," he said. "Many of
the contractors are not tied up with
the Builders' exchange, either."
Howard Covert, business agent for
the structural iron workers, said that
union would meet with subcontrac
tors tonight and that he hoped a
strike would be averted at this meet
ing. "If the contractors insist on a 20
per cent cut there seems no othet
way than to strike, however," hi
said.
Secretary Gibb, who is also busi
ness agent for the electricians'
union .asserted every electrician
now employed would quit in the
morning if the 20 per cent reduction
was put into effect. The electri
cians' union will meet tonight to
consider the situation. as will the
Building Trades council.
Say Won't Back Up.
According to Secretary Gibbs
neither organization will back up on
their original refusal to accept more
than a 10 per cent cut.
Among the downtown jobs which
will be affected if men quit are the
Brandeis store addition, the Burgess
Nash job, the M. E. Smith addition
and the Woodmen of the World an
nex. Several dozen mechanics are
employed at the Iten Biscuit com
pany, according to Secretary Gibb.

Showing Picture Found
In Pal's Pocket.
Cheyenne, Wye, March 31.-
(Special.) Enlisting from the same
town in Wyoming, William G. Scho
euwald and George Carliss, marine
privates, were buddies in France and
ate prunes and beans from the same
plate.
They used to talk of the old town,
and Schoenwald occasionally men
tioned his wife.
"Some girl," he would say.
Carliss never could be drawn into
a discussion of the girls back home,
and he particularly avoided any ref
erence to his pal's wife. Schoenwald,
thinking Carliss did not know her,
used to deliver long stories about
her.
Side by side they stood and fought
for hours. It was at Landreville that
the end came. Suddenly Carliss
stopped, and then slid abruptly to
the ground. He was dead when his
pal reached his side.
The pal happened to think of his
buddy's folks back home and, stoop
ing, extracted a number, of papers J
from the dead man s pockets.
It wasn't until after the spurt I
was over and they were all back in !
the mud again that Schoenwald I
thought of the mementoes. Then he j
looked at them.
As he dislodged a letter from tne j
I pile he came upon the picture of his
wife. He looked again. Yes, and she
i was clad in the very dress she had !
worn when he left. And the picture j
showed his wife in the arms of his
pal. !
Now, two and one-half years aft- !
erward word conies from Chicago i
that llie photoeraph constituted the
grounds upon which Judge Lewis of
that city granted Schoenwald a di
vorce there last week.
The wife still resides at their for
