MONON TO HAVE AN OVERALL FACTORY.
Eisenberg & Glick, manufacturers of union made overalls, shirts and union suits, now doing business in Chicago, have leased the Homer opera house in Monon and will move their plant there at once. Their lease in Chicago has expired and the chaotic labor conditions have compelled them to seek an outside location. Wages regulated by the federation of labor will be paid from the start, and after serving a short apprenticeship, during which the operatives will receive pay, the average wage will be from sls to $lB per week, with some making as high as $25 a week.
