Lynn Carpenters Reach Temporary Settlement on Union Split
In Lynn on March 9 a temporary settlement was reached between the local Carpenters union and the Independent Carpenters union after a night of talks with the Lynn Central Labor union. The plan allows Independent members to apply for a charter as a separate union under the Brotherhood. The Carpenters union had opposed a second local union, preferring one large body. A Central Labor committee will attend the Carpenters meeting Thursday to argue for the plan. If ratified, the boycott against the Independent Carpenters will be lifted once initiation fees are paid in the new union.
