Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Collective Bargaining and Trade Agreements in the Brewery, Metal, Teaming and Building Trades of San Francisco, California
In the pages which follow, I have brie?y traced the history of the unions concerned, given the story of the development of the trade agreements, and presented in detail the terms of those agreements in force in 1915. Certain other data relating to conditions of employment then prevailing have also been included.
I also acknowledge my indebtedness to two of my former students, Mr. Paul Chatom, graduate of the University of Cali formia, 1914 and Mr. Monroe C. Kidder, graduate of the University of California, 1915, both of whom assisted in gathering the data upon which this study has been based; to the many trade union and employers' association officials who gave freely of their time in answering questions and in supplying the requested information; to my colleague, Professor Carl C. Flehn. Who read the manuscript and made numerous helpful criticisms, and finally to my wife, an interested coo'perator in the prepara tion of that which follows.
