Washington, D. c., May ia eau
Gus of the Republican members of the
house has been called for tomorrow
evening to determine the attitude of
the majority toward the so-called
antiinjunction legislation at this SEES
sion of congress. The conference call
is the upshot of the agitation that has
been rife in the house for some
months and was the direct outcome
of a formal petition signed by the
requisite so members today.
Perhaps every member of the
house, Democrats as well as Repub-
licans, has been made the recipient Of
numerous letters and kilograms for
and against the passage Of the bill to
restrict teh powers of the federal
| courts to issue injunctions without
| previous notice to the party sought to
be enjoined.
Labor leaders have been active il
| demanding that such legislation bs
| enacted at this session, while repre-
sentatives of capital have been equal
/ ly insistent that the laws be left a:
they are. Various anti-injunctioI
bills have been introduced and re
ferred to the committee on the judi
| ciary, whence no one of them has beer
| reported to the house.
1t may be predicted on authorit!
that, in all likelihood, no anti-injunc

any bill is approved, it will be on tn
