Labor Interests Push Actions Through Central Trades Union
The Central Trades and Labor Union met in Wadman Hall. A Wolfe Tone Assembly letter urged interference against Roxbury Stone Company over underpay, with stone masons boycotting its stone. The Bakers' Union No 4 discussed the Klitske boycott, a committee was named to verify tenement-made clothing in New York sold in Boston, and Brewers urged buying union beer. The Women’s Work committee deferred agitation until August, Labor Day plans were set, and sixteen bodies organized since the last report. The legislative panel urged city take over street railways over alleged abuse and mismanagement. A J P Shaw case about ten hour days led to a city discharge request.
