The "Open Shop" Decision.

A decision from the United States
Supreme Court defining both the rights
of employers and of organized labor
will be welcomed by intelligent citizens
everywhere. That one laborer shall
nave as good right to live and to en-
JOY the fruits Of his labor, whether he
belongs to union organization, to a
church, or a beer club, or may not be-
long to either will appeal to the sense
of justice in America. of al! classes.
No one would deny the right Of work
men to organize for lawful purposes,
anywhere, but such organization should
not be used for the oppression Of work
men who do not see fit to orsanlze
That principle is upheld ly the highest
judicial body. and we vcrI much doubt
if even Samuel Gompers viii. issue a
proclamation Of defiance Of the court
as he VIGOROUSLY has done on other &C.
oasions. The principle of the open
shCp" is recognized as just and legal
end within the rights Of employers anG
of unorganized workmen, and employ
ers are given authority by the court to
operate their plants as open shops"
and are assured protection from con-
epiraCy to bring their non-union en-
ployees into labor organizations.
We think this decision will appeal TO
and find support in the ranks Of, or
ganized labor everywhere. There is no
question that the worst enemy of or
ganized labor has been the radical, IL
literate. and intolerant element within
labor's own ranks. That the court has
at last provided a basis beyond which
dangerous fanatics may no. sc, will be
a matter of qualification for sensible
and conservative men of unionized
labor.

the U-boat manipulators, and as good
game as any other. The iron cross has
been bestowed as freely for the murder
Of aged mothers and sleeping babies as
for the putting out Of service Of armed
men in enemy ranks.
On the other hand, British. French
and American forces have held to the
sacred compacts of civilized nations,
have refused to engage in reprisals,
have respected sacred places, and re-
fused to needlessly expose to danger
the unarmed and helpless.
The first is fighting for power ana
purely selfish purpose. The second is
defending civilization and fighting for
democracy and lasting peace.
In these processes Jerusalem. the
birth place of Christianity, has been
taken over into Christian hands, let US
hope for all time, and may the care
and reverence with which Christian
military forces have dealt with these
sacred places remain as symbolic of the
purposes of western Europe. and of
pan-America in its war of good will
toward men.
