CULINARY WORKERS OF
FRISCO WINNING STRIKE
JAPANESE HELPERS WHO STRUCK
MAY BE TAKEN INTO UNION.
Number OF Larger Restaurants Breaking
Away From Association and 125
Houses Now Display Card.

The culinary unions, demanding an
eight hour workday, are gradually win
ming recognition from employers, says
the San Francisco Labor Clarion About
l25 houses now display the eight-hour
house card. The hotels refused to Join
the Restaurant Keepers Association in
displaying the open shop card. The new
and elegant Cafe Republic Is putting a
big crimp in the business of the first
class downtown cafes, which still are
undermanned and doing only a small
part OF their former business. Unless
the lockout is quickly settled further
surprises are in store for the obstinate
cafe owners The public and the unions
are giving their full moral support to
the locked out culinary unions, the bak
ers. musicians and other trades involved
i'll the struggle
The culinary workers unions, whose
members are on strike. may organize the
japanese culinary workers who left their
jobs in sympathy with the union men
and women who were locked out or went
on strike on August l.
Announcement to this effect was made
by Hugo Ernst. president OF the Walters
Union, in the San Francisco Labor Coun-
ell last Friday night and was received
with applause.
A number OF the larger restaurants
and coffee houses are negotiating with
the unions to break away from the Res
taurant Keepers Association and re-
open their places with union crews.
As the Clarion went to press the fol-
lowing houses OF that character have
signed up and are opening up: Bay City
Grill, Alameda Cafe, Magnolia, Valley
Cafe and the two New Orleans.

PRESIDENT GOMPERS
LETTER TO SHERMAN
Continued from Page one.)

From both the tone and the context
OF Your remarks upon the Merchant Ma
rine bill, it is evident that you are ad-
dressing all those who shall vote at the
polls in the November election. rather
than the lawmakers who constitute the
United States Senate. The insinuations
YOU make are calculated to appeal to
the prejudieed, but they are repucnaut
to honest men who have regard for the
good name of man who for years has
contributed the best that l. in him to
the cause OF humanity.
| have never attempted and do not
now attempt, a. ! have not the power
to deliver the vote. OF any man or group
of men. ! am entrusted with the affairs
OF the American labor movement as
guided and decided by the rank and file
OF the workers of America.
If the truth which | state a. to the
autagonism toward labor and labor's in
terests and the interests of the people
generally. is intolerable to YOU. or to
any other man. that is not my fault.
II i impossible for me to be either
tyrannical or arbitrary, for there are
no such powers vested ip the president
of the American Federation OF Labor. As
an officer in the labor movement, and
as a citizen. it is my right and my duty
to advise my fellow citizens and fellow
workers.

HOUSE ACCEPTS CHANGES
IN THE CHILD LABOR BILL
SENATE AMENDMENTS CONQUERED
IN WITHOUT DEBATE.
Only Wants Presidents Signature, Which
Is Assured, to Become Law and
Abolish Industrial Evil.

Without debate or record vote, the
child labor bill has been accepted by the
House with the Senate amendments
and put on its way to become a law
with President Wilson's signature.
1t represents the results of years OF
struggle in Congress between forces urg-
ing the conservation OF child life and
those opposing it on many grounds,
chiefly that it was a question for the
states and not for the federal govern
ment.
1t would not have become a law at
this session of Congress had not Presl
dent Wilson, after the Democratic eau
Gus decided to eliminate it from the ad-
ministration program, visited the cap
itol and insisted upon its inclusion.
As it originally passed the house, it
proposed to bar from interstate com
mercc products on which child labor ac-
tually had been employed. As amended
by the Senate, it prohibits shipment be-
tween the states of all products of any
establishment which employs child labor
II bars products of any mine or quar-.
ry employing children under l6, and
products Of any mill, cannery. workshop,
factory or manufacturing establishment
employing children under Il. or which
employs children between IA and l6
more than eight hours a day, more than
six DAYS a week. or earlier than o'clock
in the morning or later than : O'Clock
in the evening.
1t becomes effective one year after the
date of the Presidents approval
Opposition to the bill was led by

Bosses Association Puts
+" Candidates On Record
1caIt News service.l

Oakland, Aug. 3.-With the cam
paign now in full swing for the cleo
tons on August II it has just been dis
covered that the Employers Associa-
ton of Alameda and Contra Costa
counties has circularized every candi-
date, asking him to Inform the bosses
association whether or not he faVors
the open shop policy. 4' aT~f
This became known when W. F.
Drury, Socialist candidate for Commits
sioner of Public Health and Safety,
made public both the associations let
tiers to him, and his reply, in which he
unequivocally asserts that he is I'M
alterably opposed to the open shop.
The letter from the association came
registered, SO as to insure, a personal
receipt from the addressee. It states
that resolution of the association S
board of directors has instructed the
secretary to ask the open3shop queS-
tion Of the various candidates..
In his reply Drury accuses the asso-
citation of masquerading under an as
sumed title to hide the fact that it is
really a. branch of : ,thear Merchants,
Manufacturers' and Employers Asso-
citation Further he states that he Is
opposed to any policy that tends to
lower the standard of living of those
who perform useful labor/and charges
that the real purpose of the associa-
ton in sending it's query to the candi-
dates is an attempt to disrupt the Ia
Dor movement so as to lower the living
standards of the working people.
