RIGHTS.
Grafton of Labor, which body
would then be able to call them
out on sympathetic strikes.
Senator Cummins of Iowa de-
clared that strikes by govern
ment employees would be 'little
less than treason"
The officers of the postal de-
partment have denied LaFol-
lette's charge that his letters to
postal employees were opened. La
Toilette says he can prove it.
LaFollette said he had thou
sands of letters from postal en-
ployes, showing how they had :
been prosecuted by the depart
ment because they refused to
abandon organizations disap-
proved by the officials.
An amendment by Reed Dem,
MOI, prohibiting membership or
animation with any organization
which countenances strikes, was
adopted.
Another amendment that the
right of any government employee
to furnish Congress any informal
ton should be interfered with
was also adopted.

Washington, Aug. 13.-The
right of postal employees to or
ganize and strike if they so desire
caused bitter debate in the SEN
ate today.
The question came up in con-
nection with the postofice appro-
priation bill. Yesterday Senator
LaFollette made the startling
charge that his letters to postal
employees on the subject of Union
ism had been opened by depart
ment officials, and the persons to
whom the letters were addressed
disciplined.
Today Senator Smith upheld
the right of all government en-
ployes to organize. He said that
there was not, nor could be, any
law preventing an American citi-
zen from joining any organization
he pleased.
eff postal employees are dissatis-
fed with their wages" he shout
ed, 'or with the conditions of
service, they have the right to-
give up their positions when they
feel like it"
Then Senator E1ihu Root, who
was chauffeur of the Taft steam
roller at Chicago, got up.

be able to arrange strike against

ated," he said. ct will be a sorry |
day for this country when we

employees to strike. There would
soon be no government"
