One Federal Judge Actually Denies a
Labor Injunction.

One Federal Judge Actually Denies a
Labor Injunction.
Judge Baker. of the federal court IN
Indiana. denied an application ON the
2Sth of the American Sheet and Tin
Plate company of Elwood. Indians. for
an Injunction restraining its striking
employees from picketing the plant of
the company. The company ccm-
planned that some of its employees had
been attacked by strikers and intim-
idated: that the wives of some of the
men who had remained at work had
been threatened and hints made that
homes would be dynamited, and, that
but for the picketing of the strikers,
many employees would return to work,
but under present conditions were
afraid to do so. But Judge Baker de-
MED the Injunction because, as he
said. the affidavits of the company did
not make any specific allegations
against any of the defendants, and
did not show that the defendants had
attempted to interfere with the free
dom of the company in the labor
market. He held that the strikers had
a legal right to organize and leave
their employer in a body, and that
they did not interfere with the en-
ployer's access to the labor market
Elwood city authorities testified that
the strike had been orderly.
