RESOLUTIONS CONDEMN
GAS LIGHT COMPANY
Central Labor Union Objects
to Discharge of Old and
Faithful Employees.

Condemning the Washington Gas Light
Company on the ground that it has dis
missed old and veteran employees in order
to pay larger dividends, and asking that
Congress enact legislation to take over
the property of the company, resolutions
adopted by the Central Labor Union have
been presented to the Senate by Senator
Gallinger. chairman of the Senate Dis
trict committee
The resolutions declare that the gas
company is able ito pay handsome divi-
dends to its stockholders by reason of the
enjoyment of its exclusive right to manu-
facture and sell gas" and continue:
THE cost of manufacture of gas has
been greatly reduced by reason Of i'm
proved methods, the use of oil and other
cheap processes, and by reason of the
reduction OF the wages OF it's employees
and the discharge Of old. faithful and
of their lives in the service of said COM
pany.
Entitled to Good Service.
1.-THE dividends paid stockholders
come out Of the pockets Of the peo-
pie, and the said corporation is a pub
lie service corporation. and the people
are entitled to have good service and
to pay no more than what is just and
proper for the use of gas which should
be up to the standard In quality.
1.-The Central Labor Union condemns
the action Of the Washington Gas Light
Company in the reduction and discharge
of it's faithful employees as inhuman,
cruel and contrary to the growing tend
ency of the age to look after and pro-
vide for employees who have used their
strength and energy to serve their en-
ployers. who may grow rich and enjoy
their old age while their faithful and
less fortunate men must end their last
days in want or on charity
"As a solution Of this problem the
Congress of the United States should pass
a bill to take over the Washington Gas
Light Company and its property, accord
ing to the law in such cases.
