LABOR To REMAIN
OUT OF POLITICS
FEDERATION TO FROWN ON ANY
ENDORSEMENTS; WILL NOT
BLACKLIST COLLEGE.

Marshalltown, June 20. The Iowa
State Federation Of Labor took posi-
tive stand against mixing in state pol
itics as an organization, when, by an
emphatic vote, it adopted resolution
disappearing the Endorsement of any
and all persons who now are or here
after may be candidates for any polit-
ical Office at the November, 1916 gen.
eral election"
The Iowa State federation Of labor
today refused to blacklist the Iowa
state college at Ames because non
union labor Is being emp loyed In the
erection Of two new buildings. A min
ority element, acting on complaint
from union carpenters from Ames,
brought the question up and II caused
lively discussion.
State Labor Commissioner A. l..
Urich opposed the adoption Of such a
resolution and showed that the state
board Of education was responsible for
the action of hiring nonunion help
Therefore, he did not think the college
should be made to suffer by blacklist
by the federation. The vote to refuse
to blacklist was almost unanimous.
The convention adjourned this after
noon. iae

To Mail
Subscribers

The extremely high price of white
paper and all matter entering into the
production of a newspaper, makes it
necessary for The Courier to guard all
departments against waste. Therefore
we ask all mail subscribers to watch
the expiration date of their paper and
renew before it expires. We can not
furnish back issues. The number of
papers printed is kept down to the
minimum-there are no extras.
Do not let your subscription expire
and your name be taken off the list be-
cause you may miss some papers be-
fore 1t gets back on the list regularly
That can be avoided by sending your
subscription to the Office before your
name Is taken off the list.
The mailing clerk in taking the
names of the list simply looks at the
date. not the name.
