Gonpern' Editorial.

Washington, Feb. S4s--CFor. the slg- nature of Samuel Gompera, an editorial In the American Federationtat Tor thts month attacks the recent decision rof the Supreme Court of the United states in the case of Loewe & CO, pcpularly known as the Hat case.% which, is der. ciared to be ''the most drastic and fare reaching decision which ever has been handed down." and as s'afkecting dtrects ly ali labor and hence the whole peo1 pie" sTss
 The ediotorial begins with tAe stater ment that Tabor organisations must not be outlAwed," and then prcceeds at great length to review the courts decision, point by point, with view. to showing that the court erred. Says Mir. Gompers: we trust that it will not be Iese majeste if we say that in our opinion the Supreme Court in this and other recent decisions af- fecting labor tends to revert to the mediaevai procedure rather than to make the application of legal principles to the present industrial situation.
 pT'lie language of the hatters' de- cision makes it clear that the Supreme Court has not. informed itself on mod ern economics. Tn it's opinion the rights of hats seems to be greater than the rights of men. Tn fact this de- cision goes to an unheard of length in puniSnluS tu0 WOIAShS AOA Nho sC9AOtNA1S of their rights
 It is denied that a labor union is 'frust' for there cannot be a trust" iR something which is not produced. The editorial. continuing. declares that while the conscience of large ma 5ority of employers win not permit them to take advantage of this de- cision, there is always the selfish, ava ricious conscienceless type of employ CTS which might infiict great hardship under the protection, of such decree.
 It is noticeable that the current is- sue of The Federationist omits the usual eve do not patronise'' list. but instead a paragraph at the end of the editorial declares:
 Tt should be borne in mind there is no law, aye, not even q court decision, compelling union men and the friends of labor to buy" Claiming the partic- ular articles which form the basis of the Supreme Courts decision.l

G0MPERS GOES AFTER COURTS Says Decisions Arc Against Laborers. DEFENDS m ROOSEVELT. Labor Union Leader Speaks Before
 Judiciary Committee. He Make. Predietien That working People win Be Heard From In
 The ImpendIng Presiaen-
 tiaI Election.

Washington, Feb 2l.--President Gompers. of the American Federation of Labor, before the House Committee on Judiciary today. asserted that labor organizations are not going to be driven out of existence" notwithstand- ing adverss decision by. the courts.
 He expressed confidence that the President of the United States sincerely sympathixes with -alf cur people" and added. T have reasons to believe that the President is not thoroughly inform ed as to the real remedy for the cause of the complaint"
 These statements were made in an argument on. the Pearre biIi to regulate the issuance of restraining orders and fnjrncffons and to limit the meaning of conspiracy" in certain cases
 Of all thersmeasures before the ju- dietary committee. said Mr. Gompers. the Pearre bill comes the nearest to giving the working people what they want.
 Events have demonstrated clearly in my mind" he said. ''that it is the . only bill that can be at all effective to deal with these invasions of human rights."
 The Pearre bili, MT. Gompers said, is intended to bring the injunction process where its was before 1t was abused in in it's application to labor disputes.
 The trend of the decisiSns of the courts.'' said Mfr. Gompera, ehave been to take away from the working man the principle of effective defense against eneroachments or imposition of onefous conditions The climax was reached when the Supreme Court hand ed down it's decisions in what are known as the hat cases. Under that decision 1t has made labor organiza- tions combinations and conspiracfss in restraint of trade.
 sI don't know what the courts will do and what executives will do. geaded on by our victorious enemies, but wapt to say to you. just as goIemnly an I can say. organizations of labor which have done much to protect and improve the conditions of the working people, win hot be driven out You cannot afford xo pisee ths stigma of unlawfulneas hboFs tic oFganiaekiana. wisich have dons NS Magn within tpo- law to improve the condition Of the. working pe6pIs.P
