Don't Weep At
The Ice House

forced TO give to these leaders is going
to be recognized and if they are going
to conform themselves and their future
work and actions in accordance there
to-
Let the people remember that COM
ment, The Federation of Labor in par
ticular stands before the bar OF pubic
opinion having been convicted OF sell
fishness and a disposition to rule all
the people Of the country IN the interest
of the few"
The great 90 percent of Americans
do not take kindly to the acts of tyran-
nv by these trust leaders openly de-
manJing that all people bow down TO
the rules OF the Labor Trust and We
are treated to the humiliating spectacle
of our congress and even the chief eX-
ecutive entertaining these convicted
law breakers and listening with con-
siderStion to their insolent demands
that the very laws be changed to allow
them 10 safely carry on their plan of
gaining control eyer the affairs OF the
people.
The sturdy workers % America have
: come to know the truth about these
martyrs sacrificing themselves IN the
noble cause Of labor" but it's only the
hysterical ones who swell up and cry
over the aforesaid heroes" remind
ing one of the two romantic elderly
maids who, weeping copiously. were
discovered by the old janitor at NJ.
Vernon.
What is it ais you lajies?"
Taking the handkerchief from one
swollen red eye. between sobs she said:
why we have so long revered the
memory of George Washington that we
feel it privilege to come here and
weep at his tomb"
''Yas'm, yas'm, yo' shore has a desire
to express yo' sympathy but yo' are
overfowin' at the wrong spot, yo' is
weepin' at de ice house"
Don't get maudlin about law breakers
who must be punished if the very ex-
istence of our people is to be MAIN
tanned
If you have any surplus sympathy Il
can be extended TO the honest workers
who continue to earn food when threat
ened and are frequently hurt and some
times killed before the courts can liz
tervene to protect them.
Now the Labor Trust leaders demand
OF Congress that the courts be
stripped OF power to issue injunctions
TO prevent them from assaulting or per-
haps numbering men who dare earn i
living when ordered by the Labor Trust
to quit work.
Don't weep at the Ice House and
don't permit any set of law breakers
10 bully our courts, if your voice and
vote can prevent. Be sure and write
your Representatives and Senators in
Congress asking them not to vote for
any measure TO prevent the courts from
protecting homes, property and persons
from attack by paid agents of this
great Labor Trust
Let every reader write, and write
now.
Don't sit silent and allow the organ
lied and paid men of this great trust
force Congress to believe that they rep
resent the great masses of the American
people Say your say and let your
representatives In congress know that
you 40 not want to be governed under
new laws which would empower the
LABOR trust leaders with legal right TO
tell you when TO work, Where. For
Whom! AT what price! What TO buy:
what not TO buy! Whom not to vo:e
!or; how much you shall pay per month
IN ices to the Labor Trust, etc, etc,
etc.
rms power is now being demanded
by the passage of laws N Congress.
IeI your senators and Representatives
plalhIy that you don'r want theme to
vote Tor any measure that will allow
any set OF men either representing Capt.
tai or Labor to govern and dictate TO
the common people, wHo perefer to be
Tree 10 go and come, work OF not, and
vote for whom they please.
Every mans liberty will disappear
when the leaders of the great Labor
trust or any other trust can ride rough
shod over people and mass their forces
to prevent our courts from amording
protection
There's a Reason"
