PREJUDICE, SAY LABOR MEN
Local Leaders Think Justice
Wright Was Too Bitter.

Oricers OF local labor bodies declared
they were surprised and disappointed at
the conviction by the Supreme Court Of
the District OF Columbia Of Samuel Comp
ers. Frank Morrison and John Mitchell for
contempt Of court. James Wilson, secre-
tary Of the New York District Council Of
the International Association OF Machin-
lists composed Of twelve local unions, said:
fully believed that the charges would be
dismissed this time, and ] was greatly
surprised when | heard that the former
sentence was reaftirmcd in their cas- IS.
The statement OF Justice Wright In an
rouncing the verdict is so bitter as to leave
TO doubt that he had a feeling Of prejudice
AGAINST the defendants All men are human
and can err, including Supreme Court jus
tees
The decision in u case like this. where
one. based on theories. The fair way would
b IN have had a jury trial, in which the
men would be tried In a practical way.
Justice Wright In his statement ignores
aoything that could be said on behalf Of
the defendants. though there are two sides
TO every question.
Ernest Bohm. corresponding secretary Of
the Central Federated Union. which repre-
sonts three hundred thousand organized
workers thought the decision outrageous.

WOMEN HAVE MARKET PLAN
Want Jersey Farmers to Sell Dl'
rect to Consumers.

The Housewives League is considering
new plan that IT hopes will benefit pro-
Queer and consumer alike. Mrs Julian
Heath, president Of the league, wrote yes
terday to the State Grange Of New Jersey
TO ask whether it would be feasible for some
of the truck farmers of that state to cross
the Fort Lee ferry with their produce ana
establish a small market on the land near
the ferryhouse, which is owned by the city
Mrs Heath is confident of obtaining the
city's permission to use the land for that
purpose If she can prove that the scheme is
practicable. and she says she can answer
for thriving trade if the farmers will come
over and sell directly to the housewives.
They will get higher prices for their
produce" said Mrs Heath land We shall
ray lower ones than We are paying now
and be sure Of getting fresh stuff
In order to guard against hucksters
masqueradng as farmers Mrs. Heath plans
to give those agriculturists approved by
the Housewives League some kind of dis
tinguishing button.
