Court Rules Teachers May
Hustle With Trade Unions

The Illinois appellate court has an
nulled the so-called Loeb rule" passed
by the Chicago board of education, and
which prohibits teachers from maintain
ing n union affiliated to the American
Federation of Labor.
This is the third court victory won by
the teachers. When the board adopted
this rule. Judge John NJ. O'Connor issued
temporary restraining order. Later,
Judge d. +. Sullivan. after listening TO
extended arguments, refused to dissolve
the order The board of education then
appealed to the appellate court. which
now sustains the lower courts in their
position that the board exceeded its au-
thority.
"The law is that the board may stipu'
late for the amount of training, the de-
gree of proficiency and the physical fit
ness of its teaching employees, but il
cannot provide that its teaching shall be
done only by certain persons. or classes
of persons, members or non members OF
certain societies" said the court.

842 Delegates and Many
Visitors to Come
Local Committee Arrange for Most
Important Convention Of Loco
motive Firemen and Enein-
men Since Founding Of
the Order In 1873

The triennal convention OF the Broth
erhood of Locomotive Firemen and En-
ginemen will open its sessions at the
Auditorium in Denver, Monday, June 5,
and continue for at least q month. The
Auditorium has been leased for forty-five
days, in event the business requires that
length of time. Headquarters OF the Of
ficcr- and delegates will BE- Mt the Albany
hotel, where most Of the rooms have
been reserved for an indefinite period.
This 4. expected to be one OF the largest
conventions OF labor men ever held in
America, and s42 delegates, representing
Rs many subordinate lodges and 5000
members of the rank and file Of the
brotherhood. will be in attendance. Rel
atives friends and visitors accompanying
tho officers and delegates will probably
swell the number In Denver for this occa-
sion to $500.
The Denver convention il likely to be
the most important and longest in the
history Of the organization. Tho entire
constitution and bylaws are scheduled
for revision. Additional interest will be
by reason of this being the one big rail
way brotherhood in session while the
conference il on in New York to deter
mine the outcome OF the demand for an
eight hour day for railway transporta-
tion employees.
Will Spend Lots Of Money.
These brawny knights of the scoop and
throttle who man the railroad engines OF
the country will spend many thousands
Of dollars in Denver and Colorado before
they rrturn TO their homes. Their con
vention expenses to the grand lodge
done arc estimated at 100000. The
Nam Of printing to be given to Denver
printing offices is estimated to cost
$4,000. A daily printed record OF the
proceedings is laid upon the desk OF each
delegate upon assembling every morning.
MANY Of the delegates will bring their
wives and keep them here for the entire
session. Some Of the boys say this Is
q pr.caution agninst being brough, under
the spell of Colorado female beauties.
The laymRn who is not familiar with
the working OF powerful labor body
like the Fircmcn and Engineers has but
a faint idea OF the enormous amount Of
work transacted at the conventions. The
four big railway transportation brother
hoods are counted among the most repre-
sentative dclibcritive bodies of the labor
world. The questions of polls" decided
ON means much to vast army of work
ing people.

One Of the matters to be considered is
the establishment of permanent head

country every few years. Chicago has
