WINTER is CoMiNG-SEE THAT
THE LABEL is IN ALL NEW
PURCHASES.

This is the time of year when you be-
gin to think of the fall suit or overcoat,
| or underwear, ETC., and lest you might
forget, let us call to your attention the
desirability of seeing to it that it has
union label in it. One of the greatest
weapons for good that has been fur
nished to organized labor. is the union
label, and the true union man is judged,
not SO much by what he says, but by
what he does. There can be no reason
able excuses offered by union man
who fails to spend his union-made dol
lars for union-made goods, yet how
many men, who call themselves strong,
staunch union men, willing to proclaim
| it from the housetops, never think OF
purchasing union goods, and as gen
eral rule are the first ones to seek the
aid and assistance of the union when
they have something to gain personally
Let each one who happens to read this
article resolve that in the future he will
buy union-made goods and thereby show
to our enemies that we realize what our
purchasing power means and that we
will no longer spend our union-made
dollars for sweatshop, child labor and
prison-made goods. And further, let
each one who takes this resolve also re-
solve to point out to his fellow union
man who is derelict in this most import
ing of the union label, what it stands
for and the benefits that will come to
the labor movement in general when
ever the union men and women fully
awake to the Importance of demanding
the union label on every article that is
purchased.
We oftentimes hear union men say
that union-made goods are inferior to
the non-union-made goods, that union
restaurants, laundries, etc, give poorer
service than the non-union ones. When
ever we hear man talk thus we feel
sorry for him for we realize that he is
only showing up his own weakness and
Judging all things from his own view
point 1t is true that there are some
INSCRIPTIONS merchants and manufac-
turers who take advantage of the label
agitation and hold up their customers
by selling them the cheaper grades of
goods and charging the higher price for
them, but this should not discourage
the true union man, and he should make
it his duty to expose such merchants
who resort to this method of robbing
their customers who demand the union
label. If the two million or more union
men and women of this country who
belong to trades unions would demand
the union label on all things which they
need and which are made by union men
and women there would never be any
excuse to complain on the quality or
price of the union-made goods, as no
merchant or manufacturer would dare
to use the union label as a means for
cheating the union men and women in
their purchases. Our enemies realize
better than some of us do the tremend-
Gus weapon our purchasing power is and
they are ever alert to take advantage of
the weakness of human nature and will
use any and all means to keep the work
ers from unitedly supporting one an
other by the demand for the union label.

The following circular, which is being

CONNECTICUT LABOR MEN.

Danbury-The workingmen OF Con-
necticut propose to become an import
ant factor in the forthcoming election.
AS in the campaign of two years ago.
candidates for Office are to be ques-
toned as to their position on important
matters affecting labor's interests. The
Connecticut Federation of Labor will
give publicity to the answers of those
questioned and will give support to
those who are friendly and will oppose
those who are unfriendly. 1t was also
decided at the last convention of the
State Federation Of Labor to advise all
members of labor organizations to vote
only for those Candidates for public of
fee who favor the principles of the
workingmen's Compensation bill, repre-
sentation in the legislature in proportion
to population, and the abolishment OF
the personal tax.

The Bakers are still on strike at the
Old Homestead bakery. Are you assist
ing them in their struggle by demanding

The Laundry Workers are urgently
requesting union men to withhold their
work from non-union laundries at this
time as they have good prospects of
signing up a few more laundries. When
this has been accomplished a vigorous
campaign of agitation in behaIr of the
Laundry Workers is to be inaugurated
by the Women's Trade Union League.
The recent session of the supreme
lodge of the Fraternal Order of Moose,
held at Kansas City, adopted a resolu-
tion declaring that hereafter all Moose
printing must bear the label" If union
men who belong to the different lodges
would get together it would only be a
short time until the label appeared on
all printing used by the fraternal organ
izations in the city.
The worlds baseball championship
series between the New York Nationals
and the Boston Americans has been de-
cided in favor of the latter team. With
careful treatment the baseball-mad pop
ulace will again resume their normal
condition until one year hence. If the
union man who is baseball fan" could
in some manner become inoculated with
the same amount of enthusiasm for the
union label as for baseball. think of the
large number of underpaid workers who
would be able to attend some of the
games during a season.
Don't forget the Tent and Awning
Workers. This is a new local recently
formed and 1t should have the support
of every union in the city. 1t has the
ear-marks of a substantial organization
and by persistent demand for the label
of this craft it will only be a short time
until we have another valuable addition
to the ranks of organized labor. When
in need of tents, awnings, flags, banners,
horse bags, ore sacks. etc, demand the
union label on them and help this young
and enthusiastic local to become
power to benefit she condition of the
tent and awning workers of the city.
The new law recently put into effect
by the Trades and Labor Assembly
which requires a delegate to show four
labels on his wearing apparel before be-
ing entitled to seat is working salts
factorily and is bringing results for the
label. At first there seemed to be a
feeling among the delegates that this
law would work to the detriment of the
assembly, but like all good laws, when
once put into effect they are found to be
a benefit instead OF a hardship. 1t shows
hypocrisy of the worst type for a
man who claims to be a union man and
gets up on the floor of a central body or
local union to make a talk in favor OF
unionism and at the same time be
clothed from head to foot with non
union-made goods.
