All LABOR TO HAVE 4 CHANCE
CORPORATION COUNSEL HOLDS THAT CITY
WORK CANNOT BE RESTRICTED
TO UNION MEN

Corporation Counsel Rtves has rendered an OPINION
that any ordinance contract containing a pro
vision compelling the employment of union LABOR
only for city work is unconstitutional
At the meeting of the Board OF Aldermen on Tues
day resolution was introduced by Alderman Doull
of Manhattan. requesting the legislature to amend
the laws that effect In addition Alder
man Goodman received a resolution from the
subordinate Association No. Of the Lithographers
tiona Protective and Beneficial Association
of the United States and Canada" requesting that
every contract for lithographic printing and sta
tionery by the city and should bear the
union label OF the photographers union. Alderman
Goodman referred the subject 10 Mr. Rives for an
opinion.
The proposed legislation is unqUestiona bly, bad,
and your board has no authority TO pass it. says
tke opinion.
Mr. Rives says that the precise point involved
has not been adjudicated here but quotes similar
case in Illinois, where the court held that pro-
vision that none but union labor should be en-
ployed could not ne lawfully made in contract
by a public corporation. : it constituted dis
elimination between different classes OF citizens and
was OF such nature to restrict competition and
TO increase the OF work
Nj Rlvcs in applying the reasoning Of the Illinois
judge holds that il will prevent non-union labor
from bidding for city work.
