SUPERIOR LABOR
UNIONS SCORE !. v. v.
Trades Assembly Volunteers
Services to Meet I. w. w.
Menace.

Trades and labor unions of Superior
will help prevent I. w. w. outrages,
they decided at a meeting held in the
Trades and Labor assembly hall Tues
day night, and instructed their secre-
tary to so inform the heads of the
principal industries in the city, par
ticularly coal and ore docks. The
mayor will also be advised of the Ia
boring mems offer and the press COM
mittee was instructed to give the mat
ter wide publicity.
Local labor leaders contend that or
ganized labor is frequently blamed for
outrageous acts of I. w. w. agitators
and it is with view to maintaining
the integrity of the labor movement
that the action was taken.
A committee was named to act on
behalf of the Trades and Labor as
sembly, consisting of j. B. Campbell,
chairman, A. E. Erickson, A. l..
Draw, A. ]. Phillips, Ed Angvik, and
Samuel Kinberg.
Labor leaders who claimed to have
inside information stated on the floor
of the assembly that the I. w: w.
movement will soon assert it's influ-
ence in Superior and they are hopeful
that the representatives of industries
here will call this committee to their
assistance just as soon as it becomes
apparent that agitation has begun.
Plans for the labor day program are
not yet completed but the committee
is making progress. William Mac
Quarrie and J. B.. Campbell were
added to the committee to take the
places Of J. c.. Macowsky and William
Hagreen, resigned.
A. l.. Draw was named chairman
of a committee to improve the finan-
cial condition of the central body by
means of the sale of an automobile.
