CASE DECIDED

One development Of the present Con
gress of Daughters of the American
Revolution which has been awaited
with interest by the delegates. is the
report of the special judicial commit
tcs of the national board. on the long
atardiRg controversy between Mrs
thomas Roberts and Harriet Baird
Huey. society leaders of Philadelphia.
whose rivalry for leadership in the
ranks of the Philadelphia Daughters
led, several years ago. to an open rup-
ture in their formerly amicable rcla-
tions
2 he controversy came to the atten-
tor, of the national society during the
reign of Mrs. Daniel Manning, of Al
bany. as president general, when, in an
open meeting, Mrs. Roberts ma lie
charges OF such a nature against Miss

brought a suit for SANDER against Mrs.
Roberts, IN Philadelphia. It was said
a the time that while il was permits
sIble for charges TO be lodged with the
national organization. Mrs. Roberts vio-
lated the rules by narrating them in
meeting. the proper method being to
submit charges In writing.
Thrown Out of Court.
The suit was throws out of court, be-
cause the official stenographer who was
depended upon 20 give authoritative tes-
timony as 10 what Mrs. Roberts said
about Miss Huey, admitted that his re-
port OF the proceedings had been edited
and expurgated. Since the collapse OF
the court proceedings, Miss Huey has
carried her suit for vindication into the
judicial department of the national
board Of the Daughters of the American
Revolution, where IL has been season

ed manufacturer to recover three-fold damages, not from the unincorporated labor unions but from the individual members. The case is that of D. E. Loewe & Co.,, vs. certain members of the United Hatters of North America. The defendants number 250 and their real and personal estate to the value of S130, GOO and their bank and savings accounts to the amount of $50,000 have been attached in suits under the state and federal statues aggregating s340,O00. Should the supreme court decide the case in favor of Loewe & Co. the property and savings of the defendant matters. the accumulation of years of toil-will swept away; they will be utterly ruined and a death blow will be dealth the boycott. Few men will care to father a boycott if their property can be attached for resulting damages, and the prospect of a decision against the Hatters union in the Loewe case will make the Garment Workers careful about employing such tactics.
 The way will also be opened to other

hat manufacturers, now restrained from declaring the ''open shop by fear of suffering losses such as Loewe & Co.,, have borne to defy the Matters union with fmpunity and as many of them were forced to unionize their shops by just such methods and have been chafing under the rigid and imperialistic domination of the union officials, there is every reason to believe they would gladly welcome an opportunity to emancipate themselves. Thus a victory for Loewe & Co. would seem to foreshadow the destruction of the Hatters' union. On the other hand de- cision against the manufacturers would practically legalze the boycott as em- ployed in interstate commerce by leaving the boycotted firm supstantiaIly without remedy or relief and would be speedily followed by attacks upon the few remain ing independent or non-union matters, only twelve out of more than eighty. with the inevitable result that within a short time the entire trade would be controlled by the union.

colt, for years organized labors most formidable and fearsome weapon, is largely, if not entirely due to the Ameri can Anti-Boycott association, of which President Eliot of Harvard university, in his latest address on The Industrial Con- fiict," said:
 .It has already proved to be an ef- fective combatant, and all people of good will may wisely wish it success in de- feating and ultimately eliminating the boycott as conducted by the American Federation of Labor or other numerous bands of unionists." The boycott does not appeal to the American sense of fair play. Its very name is distasteful. To again quote Dr. Eliot "rhe boycott is a method of combat which is eminently a method of ill-will, being an attempt to ruin the business of a person or cor poration that will not conform to the regulations of the unions in the manufac- ture or distribution of its product. It is a gross interference with a just industrial liberty, and it is often extremely cruel in purpose if not in achievement" He might have gone further and said it is inseparably identified with a rule or ruin" policy.
 The Anti-Boycott association has un- dertaken to make the boycott already eXtTeIltiy uhpopuidi WllH lHt COHSuui- ing masses, equally so with the labor organizations merely by rendering it in- effective. This it proposes to accomplish by hampering in every legal manner the efforts of those employing it; by surround ing with every legal safeguard the busi- ness of those against whom it is direct ed: by counteracting it's effect in every possible direction, and, finally. by secur- ing the enforcement of all existing laws against boycotting and the enactment of others of preventative and punitive character. For this purpose It maintains a corps of able attorneys headed by Dan iel Davenport, of Davenport & Banks. Bridgeport. Conn.,, who devote their en- tire attention to the application of labor laws to special cases affecting members of the association, which cases are to be fought through every court 10 that of last resort. the association having prac- tically unlimited financial resurces.

 The first of these will reach the Tinted States supreme court next winter and is regarded as being the most important case in which labor questions are in- yolved since the employment of writs of injunction in labor disputes first begun The court will also pass upon the oues- fjon of the violation of the sherman Anti Trust law by labor organizations engaged fin boycotting, and the right of a boycott-

necessary for him to work so intensely in his profession. But to him, work was a second nature, and he found satis- faction in working in the law that noth- ing else could afford. He died "in the harness" As a counsellor, more than an advocate, the fine qualities of his mind and nature were exhibited. His alertness of mind, his ability to concentrate at tention on the matter in hand, his great wisdom, and his kind and affable dispo- sition, gained for him a host of admiring friends.
 As a Citizen.
 As a man and citizen, his life was ex- emplary. He was eminently a man of af- fairs, and while various business inter- ests and an active law practice made great draughts on his time and attention, he was keeny alive to the duties of citizenship and patriotism. He never ex- hbited any impurity of thought, word or action. And, ''so he bore, without re- proach, the grand old name of gentle man" And, finally, brethren, whatso- ever things are pure, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are lovely whatsoever things are of good report" he thought in these things. He has left us an exam pie WOTtHy or eT0u1aIlOn.
 Therefore, we, the members of the bar of Jefferson county, do
 Resolve That in the death of William A. Walker, the bar has lost one of it's ornaments, whose great ability, high standards, lofty integrity and untiring labor, together with his manly, honest and pure life, had placed him at the head of his profession in Birmingham. where he enjoyed the respect and esteem alike of bench and bar, and our state has lost one of it's foremost citizens.
 Resolver further, That we extend to the aged mother, widow and children of our deceased friend our heartfelt sympathy with them in the loss of son, husband and father, who was so devoted so in- dulgent and so good.
 Resolved further, That these resolutions be presented to the several courts of record in this county, and to the federal | court at Birmingham, and to the supreme court of Alabama, with the request that the same be spread upon the minutes of the court; that copy hereof be forward ed to the family of the deceased and that the city papers be requested to publish l these resolutions.
