Whereas, it is claimed that this
rule is contrary to the provisions of
an Act of the Legis lature of Nevada
entitled AN Act making it unlawful
for employers to enter into agreement
or continue as members OF local or
.anizations; and prescribing penalties
for violation thereof.
Whereas, This association believes
that said Act is unconstitutional and
void. and in favor of observance OF
al laws, and does not wish to be
accused of even violating law that
is constitutional, therefore be it
and it is adopted as rule three OF the
rules and regulations of the GOldfeld
Mine Operators Association:
Rule all mines, mills mad redue
ton plants operated by members o1
this association, shall be operated un
der the open shop policy, and all mel
seeking employment from members
of this association shall only be re
oulred to satisfy the secretary of th'
association and their employers OF
their compentcncy and reliability.
