Pittsburgh. Pa. A drive on Con.

Council and the International Mold

five members OF the House. Valentine
Barrie. business agent of the Pittsburgh
district conference board of the molu-
ers, announced. asking them to give
vigorous support to that one of the
pending alien drafting bills in Co.'S
gress which is agreed upon.
Mr.. Barrie issued a statement OF
union labor's position regarding alien
drafting. which in part follows:
Labor's Position.
AS declarants for citizenship are
eligible for service in the new ma
tional army despite the fact that they
enjoy none of the privileges OF citi-
zenship. there can be no logical argu-
ment against aliens who have no
rights of citizenship assuming the
same duties as declarants.
The American worker and the de-
clarant reason in this manner: I'VE
have worked arduously and incessant-
ly 10 build our organizations so that
conditions OF labor are improved for
all the workers. The alien has accept
ed the benefits OF our effort, has fire.
uuently taken our positions when we
demanded improved conditions. Now
many of us are called from the coun-
try for service in war, and the aliens,
who have contributed nothing what
ever I'm the way OF time and energy for
the improvement of working condi-
tons, are TO remain at home. take
our places. and enjoy the benefits of
conditions we struggled to bring
about"
