Vintage Original 1928 Union Bricklayers Approve Five-Day Work Week Print Clipping - Denver Colorado - James J. Davis - U.S. Secretary Of Labor - Roaring Twenties Era - Ready For Framing

This 1928 Clipping Presents Union Bricklayers In Denver, Colorado, Officially Moved To A Five-Day Workweek. The Decision Was Made By A Vote Of Three To One Among Local Union Members. Building Contractors Were Notified And Were Expected To Approve The Change. This Action Reflects A Broader Labor Trend During The Late 1920s, As Organized Workers Pushed For Shorter Workweeks. The Clipping Also Includes A Statement From James J. Davis, Then U.S. Secretary Of Labor, Emphasizing That Wages Must Not Decrease To Maintain National Purchasing Power And Prevent Unsold Goods. This Document Captures A Specific Moment In U.S. Labor History.
