    Masons and Bricklayers Duke It Out By Sherie Winston, ENR
    Cement masons’ union General President John J. Dougherty claims victory in the dispute, asserting that his union "could no longer tolerate wholly artificial territorial allocations where the [cement masons’ union] provided the bulk of the manpower in [bricklayer] areas and were expected to leave working dues behind to [bricklayer] locals that had become nothing more than toll collectors."

    But bricklayers’ union President John J. Flynn argues that the ruling "effectively ensures that competing jurisdictional claims for plaster and cement masonry will continue unabated, with both unions free to pursue concrete and plaster work without limitation."
