UN1oNIsM AND THE TEACHERS

One of the good results that has come
out of the rule of the Chicago board of
education, which prohibited teachers from
maintaining a unOn affiliation with the
American Federation of Labor. has been
the fact that it has been settled by the
appellate court of that state that no
board of education has the power to ar
rogate to itself the right to provide
that its teaching shall be done by certain
persons or classes of persons, members
or non members of certain societies.
This decision, sonnd in principle and
equity, cannot fail of establishing pre-
cedent for all the states of the Union on
questions of similar nature that NAV
be brought into their courts
This decision is so within reason and
justice that it is surprising that mem.
bers of board of education should not
have foreseen that their action was
clearly illegal.
To allow a board of education to de-
eide that a qualified teacher should be
prevented from teaching because he or
she is member OF an organization OBJ
noNious to the members of the board,
would be to open wide the opportunity
of deciding against the employment OF
teachers on account of race, creed. social
or political affiliations that were not
agreeable to the members of school
boards. Such power would be intoler-
able and entirely at variance with demo.
cratic principles.
The American Federation of Labor is
an institution for the advancement OF
human welfare, and the affiliation of the
teachers is fully in accord with its oh.
jects. The Federation OF Labor is aiming
to make conditions of life contributorv
to the advancement of education 1t is
working for physical Development thru
healthful standards OF living. and upon
this structure the teacher develops the
mental equipment that makes for lifo's
efficiency. Their natural relation is that
OF cooperation, and that can be well
served by close affilation

Denver, July 9, 1916.
Editor Denver Labor Bulletin:
Some time ago in the daily papers We
read an article appealing to the men of
Colorado. especially the younger men. to
join the militia. AND UPHOLD THE
NAME OF OUR STATE
What grand thingl
And who is more willing to uphold his
states name than the man who has to
work for his living and earn mere
pittance to sustain himself and those
he may have to support This same man
will fight at moments notice for his
country's cause, and die if need be, be-
fore he would see some foreign power
rule his lend.
First, we wonder what has made the
average working man feel this way-be-
cause he has been taught to defend him
self and his rights against invasion of
any sort, and thru the defense of his
personal rights he has been attacked by
our state soldiers and oftentimes rough
ly handled. This same man carries in his
pocket the lit lie card of lInonism that
is very dear TO him.
He will fight until he drops, conse-
quently he would make fine soldier.
But he does not feel like joining a band
of men who may at any moment be
called to fight against him.
Take our state soldiers out of the
reach of capital and make them the bar.
rier between capital and labor in times
of labor difficulties and see who would
be first to Join the state troops, and
see who would make the best fighter

is n UNION MAN.

In his address before the triennial con.
vention of the grand lodge, Brotherhood
of Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen,
in Denver last week, Frank P. Walsh.
chairman of the United States Commits
sion on Industrial Relations, had this TO
say in behalf of the labor press:
The only possible hope of this country
today is its labor press. The Committee
on Industrial Relatiops issues bulletins
upon all the important subjects to which
it gives attention and these bulletins are
sure of publication in the labor press.
81 hope that the labor press in this
country is the forerunner of free daily
press that will publish all news; that
will have the best news service that any
papers have in the United States of
America, and when they are established
thru the power of the people-they Will
be supported not only by workers in
crafts, but by large busiress men, tenant
farmers, landowners that are not exploit
ers. etc they will have sufficient ad-
vertising patronage and every other sup
port that will insure their being pre-emi-
nently successful.
II believe that is the principal basis
of firmer foundation for the funda-
mentals of free government. I believe it
would carry out that idea, that this
world was made for us, as was so well
expressed by that great Irishman,
O'Reilly, who said:
Nature is higher than Progress or
knowledge
Whose need is ninety enslaved for ten.
My word shall stand against Mart and
College;
The Planet belongs to its living men,"

ment, as Messrs. Hines and Houston
want the laboring people of Colorado to
have the reputation of maintaining the
brightest and best weekly union labor
paper on earth.
Coincident with the above comes let
ter from the Pacific coast. Three or
four weeks ago Fred B. CasweI of Port
land, Oregon, former Denver typo,
wrote Secretary F. G. Birdsall for some
news about the printers here, saying he
had missed the Denver letters in the /. T.
U. Journal lately. Birdsall sent a few
copies of recent issues of The Bulletin,
and this is the reply from Mrs. Caswell,
Fred apparently being too interested
reading the papers to write:
Portland Ore, June %, 1915.
Mr.. Birdsall-Dear Sir:
On Friday of last week Mr.. CaswelI
came home from the office with several
copies of The Denver Labor Bulletin. He
flashed them in front of my eyes as tho
they were hundred dollar bank notes.
When supper was ready, he very care
fully placed them near his plate, and We
Just saw the top of his head for long
while. Before going to work the next
morning he put the papers away in a
drawer where he alone knew they would
be safe until his return home.
We have had more real news since
receiving these few copies of The Bulle-
tin than in the Denver Post or Express,
of which we had several copies lately.
Mr. Caswell is so pleased over The
Bulletin that if YOU do not get sub
scription from him soon. you may hear
from me again. I thank you kindly for
your thoughtfulness in sending the pa
pers. Yours respectfully.
MRS. F. B. CASWELL.
