GRAFT IN LABOR UNIONS.

The statement in the Cincinnati Times
Star of the boss strike blocker is the
most startling disclosure Of grafters in
the ranks Of labor organizations ever
made. II points the vital Importance Of
eliminating the opportunities for graft
and dislOyalty that exists with such
guarded secrecy now in vogue in most
unions There is no logical reason why
unions should not hold open meetings or
allow their full membership to learn full
particulars and vote on every matter Of
Importance 70 the lodge
In some unions only small percentage
(as low as 4 per cent? Of the members
can or do attend meetings Those present
only make the laws which must be obey
ed by the So per cent If the officers are
under suspicion or accused of graf. il
is next 10 impossible to convict them
Laws and rules that fine members for
mentioning any business outside the
lodge room prevent the other members
who could not attend from learning a true
state of their unions affairs.
The machinist organization had an off,
cial who was recreant for years. and only
by the passage Of the Prince Jaw, which
compelled the Erie Railroad 70 make the
purpose Of all disbursements known. did
the Erie cease TO hire the machinist. and
did his union learn they had a traitor in
