EXECUTIVE COUNCIL
OF THE FEDERATION
Several Matters Of Interest to
Unionists Are Considered
at Length.

At a meeting of the executive coun
ell of the State Federation of Labor
held at the Eagles club Monday night,
a committee was appointed to invcsti-
gate the use Of non-union labels
on clothing sold in this state.
1t appears that certain Utah clothicrs
have been offering for sale clothes
bearing Il counterfeit union label, the
garments having been made by tho in
valid prisoners Of the Missouri peni-
tcntiary instead Of by union worlmen.
The federation has secured three prom
inent attorneys and. after thorough
investigation has been conducted, all in
fringemcnts will be prosecuted. All
dealers handling clothes bearing coun-
4erfeit union labels also Will be prose
euted,
The meeting udorsed the amendment
TO the tariff bill, making 1t compulsory
for all foreign cmigrants coming to this
country to pay $l2 a head. The coun-
ell took the stand thut too many for,
ciguers are now in the country, ana
emphasized existing conditions i'll
this state; how white labor is
being crowded out by foreigners who
will work for a little less than n white
man will \ resolution was drawn up
jndorsing the amendment.
The federation strongly condemned
the action of cheap real estate pro
molers of Montana advertising that
Montana needs men, Montana is the
Ciibraltar Of union labor IN the west
and this advertising tends to bring III
foreigners and non-union workmen, who
thus take the place of white labor. Tie
federation takes the stand that if these
so.callcd real estate promoters are per.
mitted to do this III Montana, it will
soon be the same in Utah, and in fact
throughout the entire west.
Another matter taken UP by the coun-
oil was that of so-called advertising
mon soliciting the names Of union men
for labor directories and the like, which
they propose to sell to the union men
Of tho state The council condemned
such action and decided TO discourage
the purchase of these directories, by
union men In this action the fedora
ton is supported by tho Ad club.

PACIFIC COAST POINTS
SECURE LOWER RATES

WASHINGTON, April 26.--An i'm.
portapt series Of rates was today filed
with the Interstate Commerce commits
sion affecting westbound traffic TO Pa
cific coast terminals. The rates, which
arc TO become effective June s. make
an average reduction OF 10 cents per
hundred pounds on all commodity
tariffs from the Atlantic seaboard TO
the Pacific coast,
On January ! the transcontiuental
railroads put into effect rates TO the
Pacific coast, to which the western
shippers strepuously objected. It was
evident that complaints were TO be
made 70 the Interstate Commerce com
mission unless some amicable adjust
ment OF the situation could be reached.
In February, at Chicago, conferences
were held between representatives of
the shippers and railroads at which a
tentative agreement was reached The
result of that agreement is embodied
in the tariffs just filed. No reduction
has been made in the eastbound traffic
from the Pacific coast, but 1t is eX-
pccted that tariffs soon TO be filed will
make corresponding reduction on such
traffic.
