CHICAGO, Dec. THE right of
the members of the tri-city central
trades council of East st. Louis to
picket the plant of the American
Steel foundries was upheld by the
United States circuit court of apeals
in decision reversing the United
States district court The lower court
was directed to modify its decree en-
joining picketing and to enter in
accordance with the ruling of the
upper court.
THE right to strike for higher
wages and improved conditions of
labor is too firmly established to
necessitate further elucidation," the
decision said.
In the pursuit of a lawful purpose
to secure a raise in wages, picketing
may be employed, as this court has
held, to ascertain whom the late en-
ployer has persuaded or attempted
to persuade to accept employment
and persuasion may be made to in
duce them to quit or refuse employ
ment.
Undoubtedly picketing or persua-
sion would interfere with the plain
tiff's conduct of its business in max
ing it more difficult for them to
retain old employees and hire new
ones. Indeed, the very act of strik
ing often seriously interferes with
that free and unrestrained contro
of the employers business. But the
lawfulness of the strike is not to bs
tested by such incidental effect of it
"The order in the present cas-,
fails to recognize this difference be
tween the lawful means of interfei
