There is much rejoicing among Los
Angeles locals over the grand opening
of the magnificent new Union Labor
Temple which, although not a formal
| opening, was, nevertheless, grand in
every sense of the word to all loyal
union men.
| Last week about llalf-dozen locals
moved into their new permanent head
quarters in the Temple. and will soon
| be comfortably and artistically settled
! Several others are now fixing up tenn
porary quarters pending the compile
ton of the suites engaged. and, though
scarcely completed, the big Temple has
somewhat the appearance of a real In
dustrial beehive.
In celebration of this important ep-
och in the progress of Los Angeles
unionism several of the locals are
planning big dances and jubilees for
the near future. Other festivities are
also being contemplated, and Los An
geles' social life may take on decided
impetus in the joyous elation of the
next few weeks.
