OF LABOR WANTS TO KNOW
ABOUT COUNCLLMENS TRIP TO THE COAST

Members of the Chicago Federation
of Labor attach much significance to
the fact that a trainload of aldermen
leave for San Francisco with the
mayor after the council meeting to-
night. After various delegates had
told of what the body had pulled off
in the past resolution calling on the
entire federation to attend tonight's
council meeting as committee was
passed.
''The people of Chicago have not
been informed as to who are the phi
lanthropists who have invited all of
the aldermen to leave the city with
their wives and families after this
meeting of the council" said VIM.
Resell, delegate from the machinists.
''Are they going as the guests of the
people who paid the expenses of the
farcical probe of the Senate commit
tee? If this is so we would like to
know about it,
''The amended rule recently passed
by the school board is even more
drastic than the original rule" Sec'Y
Nockles told the delegates. "This rule
forbids the teachers in technical
schools from belonging to union,
so you see it is directed at the whole
labor movement. The employers as
sociation and the members of that as
sociation have sent letters to the
mayor praising the action of the
school board and asking him to ap-
point members who will lcontinue the
present program against the teach
ers."
L. P. Straube asked the officers of
the federation to take action so that
there would be no possible chance of
visitors being barred from the gallery
as they have been in former times.
Victor Olander said that no attempt
would be made to bar visitors. On
the school board appointments he
said: "The same interests who want

that association telling them to write
to Mayor Thompson in the hope of
influencing him in his school board
appointment We must not believe
everything the newspapers say, espe-
cially when they tell us that the ap-
pointments to the school board will
not be made until the 18th of this
month. They have been responsible
for so many questionable practices
that we should not trust their re-
ports"
Margaret Haley of the teachers ex-
planned that she heard from one very
authoritive source that the appoint
ments would be made and from an
other they would not you ask your
aldermen not to vote for the appoin-
tees proposed by the mayor until they
pledge themselves that they will up
hold the teachers federation" she
! said. 1--WE want every trustee ap-
pointed to be with us. Every one of
those left are against us.
eff we do not win this fight we will
have a system as bad as the Sooley
system in our schools. This is a ma
tion-wide fight and trade unionism is
the hope of this nation. If we do not
cooperate we will go the way Europe
has gone"
"This fight is identical to the one
which was made upon the Natl Or
ganization of Postoff1ce Clerks sew
eral years ago." Oscar F. Nelson said.
after a long fight we had a bill,
granting federal employees the right
to organize, passed along with the
postof1ce appropriations bill. So the
congress of the United States has
given us the right to organize and in
doing so it has merely reacted a por-
ton of the constitution"

Incidentally it may be said that ID

of the thoughtfulness of Captain
Steitz whose chief concern is the

vision of Major Blanding, battalion
commander of the First battalion OF

the First battalion held formal dress

that this is the first opportunity
