so.

H|LLMAN HOT AFTER
EMPLOYMENT AGENTS
Socialist Member of Legislature
Proposes to Outlaw Them.
Petitions Are Circulated,

Charles H.. Fischer of Minneapolis,
secretary of the Legislative commit
tee of the Public Ownership party, is
sending out blanks to the trade
unions and Socialist locals Of the
state, urging the members of these
organizations to fill out petitions and
forward them to Representative n. S.
Hillman at the State Capitol.
The petitions are for the purpose
Of urging the legislature to pass H.
F. No. 369, which is bill to make the
charging or receiving of a fee for Sc
curing employment for another per-
son a felony. This bill is known as
the Anti-Employment Agent bill.
Mr.. Hillman introduced a measure
on the same subject two years ago.
Under it's provisions, if passed, it will
be unlawful for any person to en-
gage, bargain or contract for labor or
to operate an employment agency for
fee or any sum of money to be
either directly or indirectly paid in
person or deducted from the wages
Of laborer by virtue Of any service
he may render.
The penalty Of the bill is very
strong. For the violation of the law
any person found guilty is liable upon
conviction to be punished by a fine OF
not less than $1,000 nor more than
. 5000, or by Imprisonment in the
penitentiary for not less than a year
nor more than live years. n 5555.s
