SCHOOL TEACHERS

Marion county school teachers this

tirely different from those prescribed

new contract which will BIO inaugural

ways and represents an attempt at
real progress in rasiing the standard
Of teachers requirements.
The old contracts which were Of the
form used throughout the state were

dency to generalize as to what the
teacher was EXPECTED to do. The new

HATTERS' RELIEF PLAN
IS BEING SUPPORTED

Washngton.-The labor press is voic
ing organized labor's views of the ac-
ton of the last A. f. of L. convention
in one hours pay to the Danbury hat
ters on President Gompers' birthday
January 27.
From the Pacific to the Atlantic, the
sentiment is uniformly in favor of aid
ing workers whose homes were lost
through court interpretations that have
since been nullihed by the passage of
the Clayton law.
The San Francisco Labor Clarion
says:
There is no union but that is benefited
by the sacrifices made by the hatters-
the ultimate outcome being the Clayton
antitrust law-and this voluntary action
by the American Federation OF Labor
convention will be approved by every
trade unionist wherever he or she may
be, we feel positive and the appeal will
be responded to promptly by all. The
brave and stubborn fight put up by these
trade unionists is deserving of every
consideration at the hands of their fell
lows, and the response should be in pro-
portion to the merits of the case. Re-
member the date and do your share. The
sum needed is not large, but there is no
room in our ranks for shirkers.'
In other sections of the country the
same spirit is reported. The Philadelphia
Trades Union News, representing a sec
tion in the extreme east, says:
"The old Danbury hatters. after life
of toll and of struggle for the principles
of unionism, face eviction from the
homes that should afford them merited
shelter in the last few years of their
existence.
unfortunately it (the Clayton law
came too late for the judicial protection
of the hatters, who were sacrificed on
the altar of the archaic and distorted
Sherman law, but by directing the spe-
cial attention of the country to the vital
lied sentiment of the present law the
old hatters may not have suffered in
vain.
"The Danbury hatters are victims of
repudiated regime
Contribute your hour to the old hat
ters."
