one which declares that there Is lit
tie fault to be found with many OF
the sections, says of this feature of
the bill:
Under this language we see nothing
TO restrain organized labor from de-
clarinG boycotts against those who
venture to do business with concerns
which IL has boycottcd. If Il manufac-
turcr in Connecticut incurs it's enmity
II can persuade" jobbers and retail
crs who deal in such product as his all
over the country not to buy from him
on pain of seeing themselves put upon
its unfair list. This gives to organ
lied labor the power to destroy those
who will not yield to ii. This is gross
favoritism.
The Times-Dispatch is by no means
certain that this Interpretation can
be placed upon the language quoted.
There was Ii great difference Of opin-
ion on the question in Congress, and
President Wilson does not so con-
Strue it, SO the matter will be put
up to the courts. But we cannot help
wishing that the House had not
evaded the issue in that way. but had
clarified the language before adopt
ing the section. 1t is this confusion
that damns the measure in the minds
of SO many, and it is from this prac-
tice OF passing knotty problems on TO
the courts that arises much Of the
belief that the judiciary is encroach-
ing upon the preserves of the legis-
lutive branch OF the government
Shifting responsibility is anything
but commendablc, and this the House
of Representatives seems to have
done.
