To Employees of the Printing Industry For more than a year, a reduction oi' the printer's week from forty-eight to forty-four hours has been advocated by some of the unions. May 1st, 1921, has been set by these unions as the date for this reduction in hours. During the war, employing printers conceded the necessity of granting their employees higher wages to meet increased living costs. In fact wages in most instances have been more than doubled. This increased cost was necessarily passed on to our customers. Printers' profits are always too close to permit absorbing extra charges of any kind. In the state of business at that time ft was possible to advance prices. But things are different now. In many other lines wages have been reduced to meet the insistent demand for lower prices. In spite of reduced living costs we have not reduced our wage scales; our profits have been cut almost to the vanishing point in an effort to meet market conditions, and we can go no further. The proposed reduction of hours without any reduction in pay would add a burdensome load to our labor costs at a time when every effort should be in the opposite direction. We submit these facts to our employees first of all. We want them to recognize the futility of opposing the obvious tendency of the day. We cannot increase our prices, and any attempt to force the issue will be at the cost of suffering to our employees, their families and to all of us who are in the printing industry. We believe sincerely that the proposed reduction in hours is against the true interests of the very men who advocate it. We recognize as well our duty to the public and have determined to resist this movement to the utmost. In this spirit we ask the co-operation of all our employees, and. of every user of printing as well as the general community.
