YOU MAY JOIN A UNION
COURT TELLS TEACHERS

Chicago.-The appellate court has
annulled the so-called Loeb rule,
passed by the Chicago board of educa-
ton. and which prohibits teachers
from maintaining a union affiliated
to the American Federation of Labor.
This is the third court victory won
by the teachers. When the board
adopted this rule, Judge John NJ.
O'Connor issued a temporary re-
straining order Later, Judge D. E.
Sullivan, after listening to extended
arguments, refused to dissolve the
order. The board of education then
appealed to the appellate court, which
now sustains the lower courts in their
position that the board exceeded its
authority.
The law is that the board may
stipulate for the amount of training,
the degree of proficiency and the
physical fitness of it's teaching en-
ployes. but it cannot provide that its
teaching shall be done only by certain
persons, or classes of persons, mem
bers or nor-members of certain so
cieties." said the court.
The board of education, together
with large interests in this city, have
waged a continued war against the
teachers maintaining a union. The
organized workers have assisted the
teachers to their fullest extent.
Washington. - The Gary Qnd)
School Teachers association, affiliated
to the A. F. of L., was assisted by the
latter organization in planning a cam
paign for increased pay and better
working conditions. President Chad
wick of the teachers association
wrote to Secretary Morrison:

prompt assistance 1t makes all of us
appreciate the American Federation of
Labor and we feel that we have good
backing in our work"

RESOLUTION
Adopted May 18th, 1916

Whereas, Various interests in this
community, and more especially the
press, are seeking to stampede our
citizens on the question of prepared
ness and are endeavoring to divert
our attention from the greater ene-
mics of the workers inside our bor-
ders to our lesser enemies in foreign
lands, and
Whereas, The latest development
of this vicious campaign proposes
preparedness parade on the streets
of this city June 10th of this year for
the purpose of impressing congress,
therefore,
Be it resolved, That the Central
Labor Council of Seattle and vicinity
in regular session assembled this 18th
day of May, 1916, does hereby oppose
any attempt by means of parades or
any other form of a demonstration
which might unduly magnify the pre-
paredness sentiment for the purpose
OF influencing our representatives in
congress, with view to entering the
wedge of militarism, and further,
Be it resolved, That we call upon
all trade unionists and truly patriotic
citizens to refrain from parading or
participation of any kind in demon
stratons which can have no other re-
suit than to thwart the cool, calm and
deliberate judgment which is so
necessary to the proper solution of
this great question, and further,
Be it resolved, That copies of these
resolutions be forwarded to all local
unions of this city, the central bodies
Of the state and to the press.

THIS IS YOUR FIGHT!

Washington.-The most important
legislative battle now being waged by
the organized labor movement of the
country is in a critical stage.
Unless those on the firing line are
supported whole-heartedly and with
energy it will result in a victory for
the interests that profit from in
dustrial tyranny, from a system that
protest, while his health and energy
all he has in the world-are sacri

advantage in their campaign to intro

private plants.
Labor's fight against the Taylor

because so many liberal-minded men
fail to understand the menace con-

duction.
The Commission on Industrial Re-

by disinterested investigators and
students should be read by any man
who doubts that these so-called sys-
TENS are today the gravest danger
facing the workers in their struggle
for freedom and well-being. Briefly,
the commission found:
l. That the cardinal principle of
scientific management" is the pit
ting of each workman against the fell
low workman at his side in a race for
greater and greater output per minute
and hour and day.
2. That constant dread of discharge
is deliberately implanted in every
workers mind in order to drive him
forward at top speed.
g. That this killing competition of
worker against worker is the most
efficient scheme ever devised to break
down organization among employees
by creating interests that are not

words, the workers share of their
increased production is taken away
