Good News From Bridgeport.

Bridgeport, Conn. Dec. o.
Striking iron molders report con-
tinued success. They have not be-
come discouraged because their
homes have been seized before
judment was rendered, and it is
whispered that employ ers who were
a party to this procedure have been
discussing settlement with their en-
ployes. At the present time the
four largest and most important of
the shops have reached an agree
ment with their employees and In
some cases wages have been in
creased 81 a day. There yet re-
mains four shops outside the fold.
1t is also whispered that it will be
a long time before Bridgeport EN-
ployers in this industry will lis EN-
to the story that the Iron Molders'
union can be put out of business.

Strikebreaksrs' High Wage,

indianapolis, Dec p The
strike of street car men is proving
costly to the local company, accord
ing to this statement published in
the Labor Herald.
Pay envelopes have been picked
up near the pay car showing that
one was paid S29 for his week S
work and another S37 for the same
time The company boasted in its
advertisement run in all the news
papers recently that its highest
paid union employees were paid
about S21 a week for seven days
work, II hours a day And then
the company turns around and pays
strikebreakers S29 and S37 a week
for wrecking its property and, as it
is alleged, stealing practically all
the revenue That may be good
business judgment but il doesn t
seem so. =.

Can Pay Girls Living Wage.

Port Arthur, Tex, Dec. 22.-At
a mass meeting in the interest of
telephone girls on strike for higher
wages one of the speakers dared
the company to open its books for
an investigation and pledged the
word of every union man in this
city to the statement that if it could
not be shown where the company
could afford to pay not only $50
per month, but S75 per month to
their operators and still make a
profit of 10 per cent on their invest
ment which was based on the
amount rendered for taxation, the
union men of Port Arthur would
be willing to increase the price of
their phones to such an extent as
would allow them to pay living
wage

Judge Rebuked BY Editor.

Springfield, Mass Dec. y The
Springfield Republican is not in ac
cord with Federal Judge Hook $
position that the Adamson law is
Unconstitutional even though the
court confessed lie knew nothing
Of the merits Of the case and only
wanted the United States sIpreme
court to hasten final judgment
Why did not Judge Hook assume
that congress has the right to pass
such law F? asks the editor.
The Judge admitted that his
opinion was not based on study of
the merits Of the question; what he
did was to translate an impression
into a judicial decision, and his i'm
preston might easily have been
rooted in a mere prejudice against
the statute. No special harm was
done, to be sure; for the United
States supreme court will not be in
he least influenced by Judge Hook
Yet why should judges Of inferior
United States courts whose decision
are not final on constitutional ques
tions, ever presume to nullify an
act Of congress or the groun of
uuconstitutionality? Why don
they content themselves with a
presumption that any law passed
by congress and signed by the pre-
sident is constitutionally sound
They might we'll follow that course
leaving to litigants the privilege Of
appealing from their decisions 10

Unity Is Necessary,

Denver, Dec. p. There is no
phase Of human life or activity but
what the trade union movemen is
giving as it can, with the light ard
resources ii has, saws secretary
Treasurer Anderson OF the state
federation of labor, in plea for
greater unity and activity
During the past year much has
been done towards bringing about
these greatly desired results. Closer
and more friendly relationship has
has been created between the men
and women OF our craft organiza-
tions and also the farmers of our
state. A better conception of the
duties that they owe to each other
is being created in the minds of all,
and clearer understanding Of how
they can best help each other has
been given every one, and the way
has been pavel for an ultimate
direct ahilation On the part cf
every one of these organizations
with this great labor movement
"But we are in a very critical
period of our industrial grogress,
the enemies of organized labor are
also strongly organized and have
established a form of involuntary
servitude, tying our hands by
means of compulsory arbitration,
whereby strike, not lockout, is
held to be illegal until some politi-
cal authority passes upon the issue
in dispute. Therefore all must take
an active part in our movement
and by unity of action force the
proper solution Of this problem that
confronts us.

Rocks For Cant Strike" | Law.

Washington, Dec. 2.-The pro-
posed cant strike" law will ex-
perience a rocky road in congress,
according to the Washington Post,
which also doubts the constitutions
ality of such law. The editor is
not reconciled, however, to the
Clayton law, which he takes occa-
sion to jab
1T is hardly expected that the
presidents plan for railroad legis-
lation will pass congress without
full debate and strenuous opposi-
tion, says the Post.
The principle of voluntary ser
vice is involved in this question,
and fresh ground must be broken in
the United States before strikes can
be declared unlawful There are
no precedents to follow 1t would

Warns Women BOyCOtters.

Chicago, Dec. %. The Union
Leader, official magazine of the To-
cal Street Car mems nnions, raises
this warning cry to women who fa
vor boycotting high priced eggs:
Can it be possible that our
women buyers will escape the
strong arm of the law In applying
the boycott? Is there no dear olo
friendly judge to intervene in be-
half of the food hoarders whose bu-
siness of extorting unreasonable
prices from consumers is likely to
be 'irreparably injured by reason
of the boycott :
Have we no member of the iu-
dietary that will issue a restraining
order and Jail our good women boy
cotters for conspiracy or contempt /?
How unfortunate for our food
exploiters that Justice Wright has
been backed into obscurity, and
that Judg Freeman has responded
to the Great Recall.
But let us not be ver-jubilant
Jesse Baldwin and Jesse Holdom
Cook county judges are still with
us.

Loss OF Business No Excuse.

Chicago, Dec. %. The federal
circuit court of appeals has ruled
that loss of business to employers
is no reason why workingmen
should be denied their rights to
picket This right is clearly stated
in the Clayton law.
The decision teverses the opinion
Of the Illinois federal district court
which enjoined picketing at the
Granite City, ILL.,, plants of the
American Steel Foundries. The
appeal court rules:
In she pursuit of lawful pur-
pose to secure a raise in wage S
picketing may be EMPLOYED, as this
court has held, to ascertain whom
the late employer has persuaded or
attempted to persuade to accept
employment, and persuasion may
De used to induce them to refuse or
quit their employment
The court makes il clear that
The lawfulness of picketing Is
not to be tested by the interference
which it may cause the employer S
business.

Starts Strike: Then Cries.

Chicago, Dec, p. Ignoring the
fact that he started the New York
street car strike and that he has re
fused to arbitrate, President Shonts
of the Interborough Rapid Transit
company, New York city, cries for
some way to stop strikes.
In an address before the Illinois
Manufacturers association he said
Shouldn't way be provided to
avoid battle, way in which re
sponsibility of both capitol and la
Dor can be made enforceable and
the rights and their rights still be
preserved ?"
And then Mr.. Shents answers his
own question by favoring a law
that will deny employees of public
utilities the right to quit work.
This, the street car executive be-
lieves, will solve every trouble, be-
cause the public will not be incon-
venienced.
This plan will also permit Mr..
Shonts and his kind to smash street
car mems unions, which is the
present situation in New York city.

up to us. I'm going to pass the hat.

left after buying the railroad ticket 1t
will come in handy to pay for a little
