University employees made their second major gain in two weeks yesterday as negotiations ended on a five percent wage increase for hourly-paid workers. At the beginning of the month, all salaried personnel went on a five-day week.

The University offered the five percent raise Monday, and it was accepted without reservation yesterday by all labor unions except for one unit of the University Employees Representative Association.

This unit--employees of the Athletic Association--will ask for more in a meeting with Athletic Director William J. Bingham '16 next Monday, according to H.U.E.R.A. President Daniel G. Mulvihill.

Yard Cops Too

Mulvihill also stated he would ask an increase for Yard police, a unit paid by the week and not covered by the present offer. Other H.U.E.R.A. units are the maids and janitors; maids will now receive 87 cents an hour, and janitors $1.26.

Dining hall personnel, which comprises two locals of the American Federation of Labor, is a large group benefiting from the new increase. Last spring, employees of the University bakery broke away from the A.F.L. to join the H.U.E.R.A.

All maintenance personnel--from 200 to 300 men--also come under the pay raise. They are affiliated with the Buildings and Grounds Maintenance Association, an independent union. In addition to these mechanics, all operating engineers will receive the five percent boost. They are a unit of the H.U.E.R.A.

Press and bindery workers--some of them members of the International Typographical Union--are generally paid according to prevailing rates, so the blanket five percent raise will be specially adjusted in their case.
