Arbitration Plan Ends Labor Conflicts for New York Trades
A dawn conference between the Building Trades Employers' Association and twenty unions produced an arbitration plan that curbs strikes and outlines a two-tier system. Each side appoints arbitrators, with a general board and appeals court to settle disputes, and a majority verdict or umpire decision binding. The Civic Federation helped convene the meeting at 1123 Broadway, with leaders from both sides approving most clauses and a ten-member committee to resolve the remaining four.
