topic was the purpose and work of the
American Anti-Boycott Association

something solid in the South besides
that. 1t is the open shop That is
fair to labor. because 1t asks nothing
but merit and skill. There are cities
IN the South that have not n single
union shop in them. Chattanooga is
one of them. We are prepared in the
South to protect the open shop with
the same strength as we protect the
sanctity of the home. and we beg OF
you to do your duty as patriotic citi-

and the East just as solid against
trades unionism as we have made the
South"
