DECISION AGAINST
BOYCOTT REVERSED
Injunction Given Parkinson Com
pany Against Building Trades
Council Dissolved
Court Holds Evidence Failed to
Show Coercion and Decides
in Favor of Union

The decision in the case OF the J. f..
Parkinson company versus the build
ing trades council OF Santa Clara cOun-
~, in which the lower court awarded
the plaintiff permanent injunction
against a boycott of the defendant.
was reversed by the supreme court in
a lengthy decision yesterday afternoon
The original action was 20 enjoin an
alleged boycott. Parkinson Is the
owner OF a lumber yard in PalO Alto
and employed a large force of me
chanics. members of the building trades
council. In his complaint he alleged
that the defendant. for the purpose of
coercing the plaintiff into the subjec-
ton of its business control. entered
into a conspiracy 20 compel him to
comply with the rules of the council in
regard to whom he should employ or
the council would declare a boycott.
A preliminary injunction was issued
and at the conclusion OF the trial In
the lower court a verdict was found
in favor of the plaintiff and perma-
nent injunction issued. The council ap-
pealed and in its appeal contended that
the evidence was insufficient TO sus-
tain the Issuing of a permanent in
junction.
In the opinion reversing the decision
the supreme court held that the fnd-
ings of the lower court. so far as sus-
tanned by the evidence. did not war
rant the issuing of an injunction. The
evidence submitted did not show coer-
cion. and to enjoin the men from
working would be ineffective unless
the court has the right to compel them
to go to work

PENDANTS in the case OF Valentine Nerio
ct al versus Frank Maestretti and

works. in which the plaintiffs brought
action to enjoin the board of works

streets as nuisances. was affirmed by
