Open Shop Gains in Building Trade

New York and national figures show open shop construction rising sharply since 1919 with 1925 and 1926 gains of 200 to 300 percent in many cities. Noel Sargent of the National Association of Manufacturers links this to efforts by building trades unions and to a broader shift away from closed shop policies. Excluding New York City, 119 communities with 6.92 million population reflect rising open shop activity and a clearing shortage in 1920-25 turning toward open shop growth despite renewed closed shop pressure.
