EMPLOYERS' STATEMENT. The employers' stand may be sunyned up in the following portion of the announcement: Our stand at this time is as in urn In the interest of the men as the management One cannot work without the other, but the plan under which they work together must be one that will recognize: First That unles we get business there can be no jobs at any pay at all. Kccond That cannot get business unless we. meet the price of our competitors. Third -That we cagftorSmeet competition unless we are assured of economical production, or, in other words.

that eight honest work will be given for hours' pay. MEMBERS ARE A UNIT. These paragraphs were the climax of the announcement. The preceding portions follow: Tho members of this assoela-; tlon. who represent all the shipyards and most of the outside jliops, are as a unit In their de- iniinalion to stand by the government in its effort to restore normal conditions.

I We will do this because It is our us loyal cltixcns and because, as manufiicturers, we. know that tho manufacturing Industry of this community depends for Its. existence on a return to normal coiidiUons. During tho war the rules of economical production were thrown, to ihe winds. Conditions crept in during the emergency and have persisted since, which prevent our competing for business in the world market or against other communities.

Just as the whole world must be reordered on a normal basis so must the metal Industry here be established so that it will offer a fair return to the employer and steady, well-paid work to the employee.
