Machinists

Pittsburg organized machinists
charge anti-unionists with attempting
to flood that city with machinists
through the publication of the follow
ing fake advertisement in several
cities:
Would you be willing to be impris-
oned 10 months at work on a new war
secret, if you received double pay? If
you are the right kind of a mechanic,
of unquestioned Americanism, and
don't mind a little thing like being
shut off from the world entirely for
nearly a year, they want you at the
Westinghouse company at Pittsburg.
Also, you would have the satisfaction
of knowing something that the neigh
bors don't even dream of, which is al
ways a comfort"
Large numbers of letters have been
received by officers of the Machinists'
union regarding this ad and many ma
chinists rushed to Pittsburg to dis
cover they We're duped.

CBy j. w. sanfordJ

At the best attended meeting of our
union for long time Tuesday evening
a number of matters of Importance
were taken up and disposed of, Presi-
dent Hornburg occupying the chair.
Reports of our delegates to the Colo
rado State Federation of Labor con-
vention were heard and it was con-
ceded that while the volume of bust
ness transacted there was not so great
the Importance of it will be of benefit
to organized labor.
A representative of the peoples
council of America was granted the
floor and explained the aims and OBJ
jects of the council. Charles Horn
burg, Mrs. j. Berkebile and A. Sing
man volunteered to represent our un-
ion in their meetings here.
The matter of parading on Labor
Day was again taken up and the
penalty of fine for failing to turn out
was eliminated, however, large turn
out is expected.
Communication from the joint un-
ions of New York, informing us that
they are endeavoring to establish a
uniform bill of prices in that city, was
read and substantial donation made
them to enforce their demands. This
move is of great Importance to the
y
eliminate to great extent some of
the unfair competition from that To-
cality on account of their low bill of
prices.
Arthur Liebig has again taken up
a residence in Denver after some
years absence in the East, the most
of the time being located at Man
chester, N. H., where he reports trade
flourishing.
The three non-union cigar factories
located in this city are still in ex-
istence, but are adding none to their
working force which would indicate
that this class of factories are not
popular. A demand for the label of
the Cigarmakers will eventually force
them into our union where they belong.
]. E. (Jack) Farrell, organizer for
the Cigarmakers International Union,
was in attendance at our meeting and
made a very interesting talk on the
Importance of organization and the
patronage of all labels. Mr.. Farrell
will remain in this part of the country
for some time after which he will
make tour of the coast in the inter-
est of our organization.
A communication from the Mooney
Defense committee was taken up and
a small donation made for their de-
fense against the unjust persecution
that is being wages against them on
the coast.
Our meeting was ornamented by an
unusually large number of our ladies
who are taking a more active part
lately than heretofore in the affairs of
the union.
Miss Rose Glenski returned last
week from a four-weeks tour of the
Northwest on strictly pleasure trip.
Rose has a lot of Interesting things to
tell as a result.
Puritan Bond, Copyright, Ranger,
Best Value, Queen City Winners, Hag-
ler's Rose and High Altitude sc cigars
are not made in union factories, which
accounts for them not having the la
bel on the boxes.
Call for label goods of all kinds, it
is to your interest to do so if you be-
1ieve in the label movement.

Iron Moulders

Judge Morgan of Cleveland, Ohio,
believes striking iron molders have a
right to picket-but the picketing must
be conducted along lines laid down by
him. He has issued an injunction to
this effect, and orders that the pickets
shall be limited. The molders refuse
to have the court sit in judgment over
their rights and will appeal the writ.

Section Four of Food Bill Interpreted
by GOmpers.

Secretary Bohm of the New York
central federated union has received
a telegram from President Gompers in
which the A. F. of L. executive dis
cusses the rejection of labor's exemp-
tion from the food control law. Presi-
dent Gompers says:
american Federation of Labor did
not delay passage of food administra-
tion measure for following reasons:
"Under the Interpretation of United
States Supreme court in the case of
Payne Lumber company versus Neal it
was held that private individuals
could not institute legal proceedings
under antitrust legislation. Only the
government could take action.
Civil sundry appropriation laws
contain provisions that no appropria-
tion for judiciary can be used to prose-
cute labor organizations under anti
trust legislation.
High authority has given assur-
ance that section four of food admin
istration measure would not be inter-
preted to apply to normal and neces-
sary activities of trade unions.
"The proviso suggested by A. F. of
L. that section four should not be in
terpreted to repeal labor sections of
Clayton antitrust act will be intro
duced in senate as separate meas
ure This course has the approval of
President Wilson, who will assist to-
ward the enactment of proposed meas
ure."
