These employers' organizations have a two-fold object: the destruction of the trades unions and the establishment of the open shop which admits union and non-union men alike. It is questionable, however, whether the open shop is beneficial to the working classes. It results in the introduction of cheap foreign labor, and the lowering of wages.
