Union Wage Scale Restored At Grant Park
The park board restored the carpenters wage to 80 cents an hour and raised common laborers from 35 to 40 cents, introducing an eight hour day. A split vote followed a weeks-long dispute tied to contractor pay cuts amid pressure from Jerome Jones and Federation leaders. The decision ends weeks of contention over wages at the Grant Park cyclorama project.
