Union Contracts Worth Anything Depends On The Union
The Daily Times accuses the Daily Age of refusing to sign or display a pressmen’s union label while the Times itself labels as a union contract the arrangement with Pressmen’s union. The piece argues union agreements set wages and conditions and could enable union shops, affecting local printers in Cohesville and Franklin Station. The union controversy centers on whether such contracts are binding and fair or merely instruments of control, with a key meeting expected tonight to decide the matter.
