commented on the fact that "Con"
gresham Bartholdt was very effectu.
ally prodded from st. Loulsp in con-
nectlon with a vote on proposition
to exempt labor unions from prosecu.
tion under the Sherman law. Members
or the committee conducted a rather
lengthy examination to determine Just
what the method of prodding' was
employed by the association. The wit
ness explained that letters and tele-
grams were started from the constitu-
ents of the congressman sought to be
influenced by communicating with the
gresham district. AS an instance
of this sort of activity, there was in
troduced a telegram sent by Emery
during the fight against this same
labor union proposition in 1910 to A.
V. Williams of the Minnesota Employ
ers' association in st. Paul, which
urged him to ''please get as vigorous
