Union Masons Get Saturday Half Holiday
The union masons, stonemasons and bricklayers have been granted a Saturday half holiday with no large wage cuts, while several hundred non union workers employed by Interstate Association firms do not receive this perk. At Bricklayers & Plasterers day meet a mortuary fund adopted at the Boston convention will take effect, providing $200 to the widow or relatives of a deceased member. The union may raise the accident benefit from 5 to 7 per week. Non union workers miss these benefits due to lack of organization.
