The Ohio Federation Of Labor has
gone on record against the products
of convict labor being placed in COM
petition with free labor. Ohio, Wis
consin and Illinois have laws reouir-
ing the convict labor label to be placed
on all goods made by convicts. There
is a proposed federal law which would
require all convict-made goods to bear
the label also. Secretary Goldsmith
OF the federation, IN speaking Of the
proposed law, said:
ohio firms employing convict labor
are compelled to label their goods sold
IN Ohio, but there is no obstacle to
their sending these goods into other
States and selling them there un-
marked. Ohio cannot stop this and
that is the deficiency that the national
resolution proposes. 1t states that the
same conditions shall prevail in the
disposal OF goods shipped into another
State as obtain in the State In which
they were manufactured"
