HELD FOR PRINTING FAKE UNION
IAEEk>

Louis S. Streep, job printer, of 80
Rose street, Manhattan, was arrested
Nov IS on a warrant secured by Morton
b. Connolly, secretary of the New York
Allied Printing Trades Council, charging
him with illegally using the Printers
Union Label. Streep was arraigned Nov.
19 before Magistrate Barlow in Jefferson
Market court and held for trial in Spe-
oial Sessions, his bail being fixed at $500.
The officers of the council suspected
for a long time that Streep had label
cuts in his possession. and they planned
to secure evidence that would insure con-
viction. The fact that the defendant was
held under bail for trial is evidence that
the council has a case in which the proof
is complete.
For over year the officers of the AL
lied Printing Trades Council have been
endeavoring to run down fraudulent
users of the Union Label, and the warn
ings that have been given to the non
union printers guilty of practicing this
fraud has greatly reduced the evil. The
assistance that has been given by mem

WoRKMEN's COMPENSATION ACT.
Under the Workmen's Compensation
Act in Great Britain it must be proved
that a workman's injuries have been
caused by an accident arising out of and
in the course of his employment.
decision was recently rendered by
the British Court of Appeals which
hinged on the question of what consti-
tutes an accident within the meaning Of
the aforementioned act The case be-
fore the court was suit for damages
for death due to heart disease from the
man suffered from a serious aneurism
of the aorta; that he was tightening
nut by the use of a spanner, in a ship
building works. when he suddenly fell
backward and almost Immediately ex-
pired. and his widow sued for compensa-
ton At the hearing before the county
court it was proved that the aneurism
was in SO advanced a stage that 1t might
have burst at any time, and that a slight
strain might have brought about such
condition.
The Judge found as fact that the ex-
ertion used in tightening the nut had
caused rupture to which death was
due and that the cause of the death was
strain in connection with the ordinary
labor of the deceased operating upon
condition of his body, rendering the
strain fatal. The judge held that there
had been an accident within the intent
of the act, and awarded compensation.
The employers appealed to the Court of
Appeals and that court dismissed the
appeal. holding that the weakness pre-
disposing the deceased to the injury
causing his death was not material: that
the deceased sustained the injury in the
reasonable and ordinary discharge of his
duties and that his death resulted from
an accident within the meaning of the
law. It is believed that the decision will
have its due weight as a precedent In
determing parallel cases arising under
liability laws of this country.

THE LOCAL SITUATION.

In the year just closing there has been
a great deal of controversy among the
various labor organizations. We, at
home, think that we may be the only
ones who are unable to agree but it has
not been simply in Denver but universal
ly, all over the United States, a great
deal of misunderstanding and jurisdic-
tion disputes have arisen. We hope that
the coming year may prove to see more
harmony and better feeling towards men
than the closing of this year. We notice
in reading the various labor papers from
all over the United States that since the
American Federation of Labor conven'
tion last November, in Toronto, that
many unions who have heretofore re-
manned outside of the central bodies and
state declarations are now getting into
line and being represented where they
should be. We notice of recent date a
circular being sent out by Frank Morri-
son, secretary of the American Fedora.
tion of Labor, notifying all these various
unions that they are compelled to affili-
ate themselves with the central bodies
or have their charters revoked by their
nationals. We can see no reasons why
the various unions should be at logger
heads so much. 1t appears as if they
walk around with a chip on their shoul-
der, awaiting the time for someone to
knock it off and when that is done they
then have more trouble than ten thou
sand people ought to.
So we sincerely hope that this New
Year may be started in a sensible man
ner and men will use sane thoughts, get
into line, become union men in their ac-
tions, as well as in name. So we will
close with wishing all Happy and Pros
porous New Year.
