GOMPERS BRIEF Is FILED
Labor Leaders Contempt" Case
Goes to Supreme Court.
In Argument for UniOntsts, Judge
Parker Makes Plea for
Freedom of PreAs.

Judge Alton B. Parker and the lawyers
associated with him in the defense Of
Samuel Gcmpers. John Mitchell and
Franz Morrison. officers Of the American
Federation OF Labor. filed their brief
yesterday in the Supreme Court in the
contempt case growing out of the in
junction granted on the petition of the
Bucks Stove and Range Company Of ST.
Louis. The case goes 10 the supreme
Court on writ Of certorari Of the Court
Of Appeals.
The officers named were enjoined by the
Supreme Court Of the District of Column
bia from placing the name Of the Buck 5
Stove and Range Works on the unfair
list of the American Federation Of Labor.
They were also enjoined from boycotting
the goods OF the firm. Later, the re-
spondents were brought into the court
for alleged disobedience Of the injunction
and were adiudged to be in contempt and
sentenced 10 Imprisonment They appeal
ed. but the Court of Appeals of the Dis
trict of Columbia, by a vote OF TWO 10
one, affirmed the decision OF the Supreme
Court. The labor leaders then petitioned
the Supreme Court of the United States
for a writ OF eertiorari, and their petition
was granted and the court will review
the decision OF the District Court.
In the brief filed yesterday Judge Par
ker and his associate counsel rely chiefly
for defense on the contention that the
official organ of the American Federation
of Labor did not contain matter that
amounted 10 a contempt for the courts
decree, or 10 a disobedience of the in
junction. The brief contains a stirring
press.
