Use of the Label
Another resolution was offered by Presi-
dent Feeney which provides that as the
Allied Printing Trades Council label is the
emblem of all the affiliated branches of the
printing trade, composed of printers, press
men and assistants. bookbinders, stereo-
typers and electrotypers and photo-en-
gravers; and as the control of the label at
present Is technically and practically in
the hands of the international Topographic
cal Union; and as such control, IN justice
to all interested parties, should be given
equally to all the affiliated bodies, for
them to elect such representatives as in
their judgment would promote the use of
the label;
1T is, therefore, decided that this con-
vention, for the purpose of bringing this
idea properly before the conference board
of the Allied Printing Trades Council, in
struct our international president to re-
quest meeting of the conference board
soon as possible, and for him at said meet

after many efforts, to induce Congress to

working people of this country, and the

assembled in convention in Washington, d.
c., that all efforts to obtain relief from
Congress by petition for new legislation and
enactment OF laws beneficial to the people
be now suspended, and every effort be put

PLANS FOR THE DEFENSE FUND

The eight hour day has become the shib-
boleth of the convention of the Interna
tional Brotherhood of Bookbinders, now in
session at Typographical Temple. Soon after
the convention convened this forenoon the
matter of the shorter work day was taken
up by the bookbinders in committee of the
whole. and formed the theme of a number
of speakers. representing many parts of the
United States and Canada. The sentiment
developed was all strongly in favor of eight
hours for DAYS work.
After the meeting had been called to order
by President Robert Glockling the delegates
took UP for discussion the recommendations
contained in his annual message President
Glookling holds that the only opposition
left to the eight-hour day is the narrow and
mercenary views of few capitalists, whose
armor in the battle is not logic or reason,
but strength of capital, which strengths is
beng shattered right and left. The remnants
can be easily scattered out of view If the
workers will only realize the Importance and
necessity of meeting this opposing force
force. or, to put it more plainly, we must
pvt UP our cash--create fundS-tO success
fully meet the starving process, the only
weapon left the enemy in this fight.
Compliments the Printers
In our search for evidence of the value of
money in this campaign for the eight hour
day we need go no further than the SPLEEN
Old and absolutely unique attitude of 10y
atty and good sense of our sister craft the
l. I. U. The membership of the Interna-
tional Typographical Union has written a
new page in trade union method in the
propaganda for betterment of condition in

earnings a strike fund. So far as | am
aware 1t has no parallel In trade union his

standard, and one that has demonstrated
beyond all doubt its utility and value. The
story of the progress of Their eght-hour
strike~has been one of continued victories.

have said before, and say again. that II is
a matter of regret that circumstances had
not so shaped themselves that the. eight
hour campaign had not been joint cam
paign within the entire crafts of the print
ing trades.
In discussing the proposed eight-hour
movement of the bookbinders it was the
sense of some of the delegates that 1t
should not be inaugurated until there is
a larger defense fund on hand
One of the features of the future con-
sideration of the eight-hour matter, it
Was announced, will be an address by
Mr.. James T. Lynch president of the In
ternational Typographical Union, who is
expected to reach Washington this after
noon.
The president of the Stampers and Gold
Layers Union of New York city declared
that we have the women with us, and
they will add strength to our movement"
