SPEAKS FOR MASSES
Review Of Great Speech Of the President on
Mexican Situation
By Dante Barton

DO you think the glory of Amer
ica would be enhanced by war OF
conquest in Mexico? Do you think
that any act of violence by power
full nation like this against a weak and
distracted neighbor would reflect dis
tinction upon the annals of the United
States9 Do you think it is our duty
to carry self-defense to the point of
dictation in the affairs of another
peoplee The ideals of America are
written plain upon every page of
American hitsory"-From speech of
President Wilson to New York Press
Club, June 80,
President Wilson, servant of the
republic of the United States, express
sed the fine faith and the fine soul
of the plain American people in his
great speech on the Mexican Situation
to the New York Press Club the night
of June 30
To express strongest approval and
gratitude to President Wilson for that
expression of American honor and
justice, is in itself an act of simple
faith and loyalty to the American la
Dor movement. Such commentator
of the President is an obligation of
true Americanism, if "Americanism
is to be worthy of its origins and ira
ditions.
The American Federation OF Labor,
under the direct leadership of Samuel
Gompers, and all other outspoken
groups and parties of American La
Dor, have worked directly for months,
and indirectly for years along lines
laid down SO clearly by the American
President.

pie of this country want war with

History Of Writ Of Injunction


ican Federationist, President Com
pers traces the injunction process
from its beginning, when il was de-
veloped for use in cases not covered
by law, until the present time, when
injunctions set aside constitutional
guarantees.
Our legal theories and judicial in
stitutions were inherited from Eng
land says President Gompers. In
England, in the early times, the only
recourse for losses or damages to
property or property rights was
through legal procedure in the civil
courts to secure an award for dam
ages. But monetary awards were not
always full compensation for losses,
nor did they afford ample protection
against encroachments of feudal over
lords upon property or property
rights of their retainers.
There developed the custom of di-
rect appeal to the king, known as the
chancellor, or the Keeper of the
kings conscience"
The matters involved in such con-
troversies as were brought directly
to the king were questions OF equity
rather than of law.
The chancellor, who heard both
parties, would report to the king ad-
vising that either the matter be dis
missed or that an order be issued
that the offender do what he ought
to do or refrain from doing some
thing that would work injustice.
AS time went on, these precedents
developed into custom and custom in
to accepted law. Equity courts be-
came an important part of the judi
cial machinery of England The chan
cellor became a Judge, who, without
a jury, heard cases for which there
was no adequate remedy at law and
issued DEGREES directing that GER
tain course be carried out.
These fundamental principles of
chancery, or equity, were developed:
"(D 1t was to be exercised for the
protection of property rights only.
"(2) He who would seek its aid
must come with clean hands,
"(3) There must be no adequate
remedy at law.
go 1t must never be used to cur
tail personal rights.
"(5) 1t must not be used to punish
crime.
Equity courts have been invoked
in times of industrial disputes for the
of securing from equity
judges restraining orders or injunc-
tions restraining workers from col
lective action assuring that unity of
purpose necessary to make a strike
from saying orally or pub
fishing information or doing things
to induce employers to
agree to better terms and conditions
Of work, and from profting by aid
and counsel in carrying on industrial

f~ChAANSN9s
More than 20 years ago federal
courts began to issue such restr
ing orders and injunctions with great
frequency. Since equity courts have
jurisdiction only over controversies
involving property or property rights,
the only seeming justification for II
issuance of these restraining orders
is the theory that employers right to
do business includes a property right
in the labor of employees necessary
to carry on the business prohtably.
They assume that property and
property rights are infinitely more
important than human beings or hui
man rights, and demand that these
shall be subordinated to profits and
uninterrupted production or transpor-
tation.
st has no bearing upon this argu-
ment to stigmatize wage earners
wrongfully as lawless and doers of
violence. When workers violate law
or commit crimes, there is adequate
remedy at law. No judge has a right
to issue an injunction forbidding com
mission of crime in advance-neither
has an equity court the right to try
criminal cases.
"lnjunctions have been issued that
set aside rights guaranteed workers
and all citizens of the states and the
United States both by statutory and
constitutional law. Restraining orders
and temporary injunctions were
drawn by lawyers in the pay of en-
ployers. presented to equity judges
and often signed without even being
read, pending, of course, future hear
ing. But between the time when they
were issued and the future hearing
they constituted an order of the court,
violation of which could be punished
as contempt of court and penalized by
fines or Imprisonment.
The Technology used in these
edicts was such as to create preju-
dice against the purposes and activ-
tiles of the workers by designating
them by epithets that carried with
them the insinuation of lawlessness
and malicious purposes.
"The use of the writ of injunction
in industrial disputes was so often in
contravention of law and legal justice
and subverse to the regular insti-
tutions of justice and government that
it was ittingly designated as govern
ment by injunction. 1t secured to en-
ployers immunity and special priv
ilege and denied workers rights and
opportunities. All of this was ac-
complshed under guise of superficial
legality in a manner that was out
wardly respectable and sanctioned by
institutions of justice.
Thus, like many another beneh-
cient institution, the writ of injunc
ton, which was intended to serve the
best interests of the people, became
an instrument of injustice and tyr
amy"
