LABEL LEAGUE
TAKES ACTION
At the Regular Meeting of the League
Action Is Taken Against Former Sec
retary-Treasurer Henderson.

Union Label League No. 1 met in reg
ular session last Friday evening in its
hall in the Club building. Much import
ant business was transacted, such as TAX
ing up the many propositions brought to
the attention of the League, and referred
to the proper committees.
The greater work of the League is cen
tered in the general label committee, OF
which Miss Genevieve Miles of the Gar
ment Workers is the secretary. The
choice of Miss Miles could not be i'm
proved on as she is one of the most act
i've members of any labor organization in
the label movement in Denver and is al
ways present when there is work to be
accomplished ]. w. White, president of
the League, is to be congratulated in Sc
curing the services of Miss Miles as sec
retary of this committee-the most i'm
portant outside of the financial business
of the League. This committee is the
outcome of the deep study President
White has given to the label movement
in general, and through this committee
the League expects to do its most effect
i've work. All unions in Denver are urged
in touch with this committee to boost
their respective labels and the labels Of
other organizations

Spokane. Wash, League, in which it was
stated that former Secretary Henderson
had used the mails in obtaining from that
League $40 for a charter for label
league during his incumbency. The sec
retary was instructed to inform the Spo-
kane people that the Denver Label
League would pay the $40 fraudulently
obtained from them, and would take jur-
isdiction of the case as regards prosecu.
ton. The Denver League does not issue
charters to new organizations, and the
act of Mr. Henderson in taking this ac
ton is believed to be to defraud the
Washington label people and will be pros
ecuted by the officers of the Denver
| League through the postoffice department
unless steps are soon taken to settle his
shortage with the League. The League
desires to inform the public that the bust
ness of the League and of the United
Labor Bulletin will be conducted in the
future along fair and square business
lines. and any misconduct of any of its
representatives. should be reported to the
proper officers of the League and 1t will
, at once be called to the attention of the
defending parties and correction made.
The League insists more urgently than
ever that all members of union labor pur
chase only goods that have the union
label when you purchase other than
label goods you employ nonunion labor
just the same as if you employed non
union man in your own trade. II youI
merchant does not show you union goods
| find out why he does not show them first
in preference to the non-label goods
Insist that he give them to you. They
are better.
