UNION LABOR
TO PUT down
INJUNCTI0N5
In This Country, Secretary Of
Labor Wilson Tells Bridge
port Audience.
cuY ASSOCIATE PREss

BRIDGEPORT, Conn, Aug. 10
Secretary of Labor Wilson, one Of
the speakers at machinists' outing
here today, in discussing the recent
action whereby Bridge foundry own
ers alleging conspiracy obtained an
Injunction against the MouIders I'M
ion forbidding pICketing, declared:
Organized labor will not stand for
the restoration of conspiracy laws in
the United States. For 500 years
labor has fought conspiracy laws. In
1875 in Pennsylvania, the last con-
spiracy law was put out of business.
Employers began to look forward
for something to take its place. An
Injunction was given in MassaChu-
setts because working. men main
tanned the right to strike when short
err hours and better wages were not
granted. Injunctions have been
granted since.
with all due respect to the courts,
| say organized labor will not stand
for this"
The secretary predicted national
eight-hour day for all crafts and
urged continuous fighting for this
issue.

1t now is expected that the battle

The entire 1917 program probably

WORDS
And Quite Empty is the Terri
BILE Indictment Lodge Hands
Mr.. Wilson.

MANTASKET, Mass, Aug. 10
Asserting that the present govern
ment at Washington has been an adj
ministratiOn of words, Senator Henry
Cabot Lodge made his opening
speech Of the present campaign at an
outing of the Republican Club, OF
Dorchester, here today. Mr.. Lodge
said in part:
Behind great barrier Of words
the president has sheltered himself,
surrounded by cloud Of phrases;
big words with no meaning.
After the awful disaster of the
Lusitania, the president used the
memorable phrase, too proud to
fight. The country responded the
next morning. 1t was not a friendly
response. So he changed and we
had note on strict accountability
and 1t remains a phrase, There has
never been PREPARATION nor even an
apology for the Americans drowned
or killed on the Lusitanla.
THE same phrase was posted on
the consulate of Mexico not long ago
that if any injury came to Ameri-
ans, Mexico would be held strictly
accountable. Americans have been
killed and every outrage committed
and strict accountability still re-
mains the false and empty phrase"
Senator Lodge predicted that
Massachusetts would give Hughes a
larger plurality than the plurality
Of the combined Taft and Roosevelt
vote in 1912.

Insurance companies, 1t is pointed
out by those who have examined the
figures at the department offices,
make record greatly inferior to
this. The cost of administration Of
insurance companies it is declared,
runs as high as forty to sixty per
cent of premiums collected.

Of the department has been handled

those on pensions, an average of L.

and an average of 1893 payments

treatment of the injured by physl-
clans at home and for hospital care.

sible for the enactment of the work

ern States Woman's Suffrage Conference
was addressed yesterday afternoon al

streets northwest, by Frank Morrison,

urer, of the American Federation OF

giving the ballot to women as a remedy
for Industrial evils.
Mr.. Morrison stated that the federation
had for a great many years been fight
ing child labor in the mills and factories
of the South, and in the mines, and added
that II woman's suffrage became national
he was sure the wrong would be entirely
remedied. Mr.. Lennon stated that the
lack of suffrage for women had worked
great hardship on them in industry
He expressed confidence that II women
were given the vote they would procure
for themselves more satisfactory work
ing conditions.
The meeting was presided over by Mrs
w. NJ Stoner, president of the Kate Cor

ing the guests by Mrs. Cato Sells, first
