The proposition to furnish some sort

favor of putting the ~convicts to work,
but opposition of one kind or another
has arisen when the subject was

proposition. IL rs suggested that the
making Of hrooms. Irvine or digging
coal from the land owned by the in

bring the results desired. Il Is pointed
out that by working the men in the

OKLAHOMA UNION
LAW is AFFECTED


VIZ ASHINGTON. Jan, 25.-Tho con-
w stitutional right Of employers
to require employees to renoumcc their
union affiliations as a condition Of
employment was sustained today by
the supreme court In n decision, far
reaching 10 organized labor, I'm which
the Kansas so-called coercion statute
was declared unconstitutional.
Associate Justice Day, Joining a dis
scuting opinion with Justices Hughes
and Holmes, declared he believed
similar laws in 10 other states, in
Guiding oklahoma and Porto Rico,
fell by the decision.
Under the Kansas statute il was
unlawful for any individual or cor
poration to coerce on influence any
person to enter into al agreement not
to Join or remain a. member OF a la
Dor organization Hs a condition OF OBJ
tanning or continuing employment.
The case today arose from the con-
vlCtiuu Of +. h. CopBagc, a division
superintendent of the Frisco railway
system. for threatening A. Il. Hedge.
a switchman, with dismissal II he did
not withdraw from the Switcnmen's
I mon or NOrth America.
The substance OF the opinion Of the
majority OF the court was In this par
aEraph.
Just as labor organizations have
the inherent and constitutional right
TO deny membership to any man who
Will not agree mat during such mem
hcrship he will not accept or retain
employment in company with non
union men. and just as a union man
has the constitutional right TO decline
proffered employment unless tho en-
uloyCr viii agree not 90 employ any
~nOn-union man, 50. the employer has
the constitutional right 10 insist that
the omploye shall refrain from afilia-
ton with the union during the term
OF employment"
The contention Of the dissenting
Justices is expressed I'M the main in
tins paragraph of ttelr opinion:
could an employer not be forbid
den from demanding agreements that
an cmploye should not Join the ma
ttoual guard Could not the state
strike down agreements net to Join
% certain political party? Why not
labor unions. whatever members NJ
this court may think OF these
unions"
Justice Pitney. In announcing the
maiurity's opinion. made it clear that
he lid not consider actual coercion"
as beyond the power OF the states TO
prohibit.

IN order 10 interest the Tulsa chil7
dren in the question Of conserving ma

at the meeting Of the municipal park
board Yesterday morning to employ a
teacher to work in the city during
the spring and summer months, or

nearest their homes two or three
times a week. The members Of the
board are heartily in iSvor Of the plan

Miss Hampton lives at Springfield,

No doubt many small children who

there is little question that the plan

the best stump speaker the Republi.

His speech was along the lines of
those made by Morrow, Green and
other Republican speakers. A large
proportion of his auditors were DEM
ocrats who were in town to attend
court. There was little enthusiasm
shown by Republicans and the recep-
tion given the orator was in striking
contrast to some of his ovations on
previous occasions.
