Boards Of the District Assemblies ITO, III

resolutions:
To all labor organizations:
WHEREAS, 1t has been evident to sssrs
observing man that the corporations
Of the country are uniting and
acting in concert for the purpose
of breaking down the labor organizations
and Trade Assemblies, and
WHEREAS, All said organizations are the
outgrowth Of stern necessity forced upon
them by the aggression of corporations
who srrogate to themselves rights which
they deny to others, and
WHEREAS, Said corporations have made
the nonrecognition of Trades Assemblies
and labor organizations the rock on which
they propose to wreck the commerce Of the
country; therefore, be it
Resolved-Thst we Insist upon our rights
as American citizsIs to assemble and or
gauize and negotiate and treat with other
organizations and through our delegates
and repre- sentatives with the representa-
tives OF any and all other combinations and
organiz stions whatever.
Resolved. That refusal on the part of
represe natives to treat with the represen-
tatives of labor is silly subtertuge for the
purpose OF perpetuating strife and running
country which it is becoming evident
they cannot longer rule.
Resolved, That we request ell labor or.
ganizatious and trades assemblies in the
land to unite in a demand tor recognition
of their representatives and their right to
negotiate, treat and deal With individuals
or bodies as the case may be.
Resolved, That We call upon our legis-
tors, both Sale and National, to enact
such measures as will compel the recogni-
ton of labor organizations and trade as
SENT bies, and also to compel corporations
to arbitrate differences between and with
themselves and their employees.

there was any error in that decision.
