GOMPERS'
Editorial
Says Sherman Law Must be
Amended SO as to Exempt
Labor From All Charges
of Trust.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service ]
WASHINGTON, Jan. Whether
organized labor Is to be "out-lawed" is
a question which the American people
must decide without further delay ac-
cording to an editorial by President
Samuel Gompers of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor in the January Ameri-
can Federationist issued today. He
viewed with alarm the Sherman law
indictment of United Mine Workers
officers In West Virginia and declared
that "the very life OF organized labor
Is at stake"
The anti-trust law. az now inter.
preted and applied" he said, "consti-
tuted the most serious menace to the
labor movement"
THAT law, which was intended to
benefit human beings. to prevent or
check monopoly and absolute control
over the products OF labor and OF the
soil and to assure to the people the
necessities Of life at reasonable prices
has proved useless in establishing con
troll of regulation over the trusts and
monopolies," said Gompers.
In a spirit of glee these Same
monopolies, trusts and corporations
unharmed by the law which was to
have regulated them, now turn this
law against the human beings who
We're to have been protected"
Gompers demands that the Wilson
administration shall give substance te
its conviction il it Is not in favor OF
outlawing organized labor, for, be
charges, "as was the custom under
the late regime the present administra
tion has permitted, under the provi
sions OF the Sherman antitrust law,
indictments against men helping theil
fellow workers to secure high wages
and a shorter work day"
Imperative necessity for the ameno
ment Of the Sherman law to exempt Ia
