one dealt with.
The Day Book today has to
thank the Hearst publications in
Chicago for an entirely gratitu-
Gus piece of advertising.
In a cute little box on the front
page of the American today, the
following sentence occurs:
"The whole object (of the
strike) is to make a condition
whereby the Daily Socialist,
Daily World and Day Book will
get more circulation"
The American states that this
is a quotation from the speech of
John c. Harding, secretary of the
Chicago Typographical Union, in
his speech to the printers.
Harding did not mention the
Day Book in his speech. He did
make a reference to the Daily So
cialist and Daily World, although
not in the words of the American.
But he did not mention the Day
Book. For all the Day Book
knows, or cares, Mr.. Harding
may not be aware of its existence
But apparently the American is
painfully aware of the Day
Books existence. Apparently the
American is. annoyed by the Day
Book. Else why should the Amer
ican take the trouble to print
deliberate lie, which, by the mere
fact Of its being there, advertises
the Day Book?

The Pressmen's Union of San

against the Examiner, Hearst's
paper there, Saturday night. The
Examiner got out with an eight
page paper today. The publishers
of other San Francisco papers, al
