Samuel Gompers. Of the American
Federation Of Labor. has discovered
and frustrated a plot 10 aid ship sub
sidy legislation by the fraudulent use
Of the name Of the Marine Trades Coun-
ell Of the port Of New York. Unions
all over the country received circulars
purpOrting to come from the New York
Council and which misrepresented the
provisions OF the proposed subsidy law.
When one Of the circulars was pro-
duced at a meeting OF the Marine
Trades Council, that body repudiated
It. An investigation by District At
torney Jerome revealed the fact that
professional lobbyist had paid $500
for the use Of the name Of Walter S.
Weeks, secretary Of the Council, but
that he did not understand that the
Marine Council was to be made sponsor
for the circular. President Gompers
intends TO lay the entire affair bare
in Washington.
At the last meeting Of the Vallejo
Labor Council, among other business
transacted, the Typographical Union
suggested that business men take care
TO see that the union label is on all
tickets, cards and other stationery used.
The bill introduced by Congressman
Jones at Washington raising the wages
Of all civil service employees 20 per
cent was also discussed. The labor
unions Of Vallejo are in a f1ourishing
condition.
