What It Is All About

Omaha's strike Of today really began about
two years ago when Max Dezettel came to Omaha
and announced: Omaha is the scabbiest town in
America, and before we get through it will be
good union town." He prophesed "a great future for
the local labor movement when every wage worker
will be union wage worker" Dezettel was former
l. w. w., whose only claim to union membership was
a card issued by himself to himself in a Stenogra-
piers and Bookkeepers' Union, which he himself
organized.
With the assistance Of David Coutts, organizer
Of the American Federation Of Labor, and others,
Dezette brought about the organization of many new
unions in Omaha-the Common and Building Labor
ers, Teamsters and Truck Drivers Freight Handlers
Chauffeurs Egg Inspectors, Stenographers and
Bookkeepers, Boiler Makers, Mill Workers, Bakers
and Confectioners and Meat Cutters He brought
about new activity in old unions and there was estab
lished the "Union Label League" to boycott goods
not carrying the union label
By May 20, 1916, the new leader urged that
EVERY active trade unionist should now work harder
than ever and do his part in agitating for 100 per
cent organization for all trades in the state"
A Campaign to Dominate.
That was the plan-to extend union domination
over EVERY wage-worker and employer in Ne
braska. The present strikes are in the nature of
general assault in the great offensive war to change
conditions under which Omaha has lived in indus
trial peace and prosperity for thirteen years.
Dezettel sowed the seeds and then abandoned
Omaha in the late summer of 1916. Couts, his first
lieutenant took his place.
In 1916 in the campaign to make Omaha 10oob
closed shop, there were five strikes-Building and

iron workers had contract with their employers
which included system for the arbitration of all dis
putes-to avoid strikes This year the union filed
written demands that "arbitraton be done away
with" They also demanded the wiping out of para
graph which pledged them not to engage in sympa-
thetic strikes.
The sympathetic strike threat was further made
in published interview attributed to the president
of the local hoisting engineers union in which he was
quoted as saying: "A walk-out of hosting engineers
would tie up construction of nearly all buildings.
Engineers plasterers, stone cutters carpenters and
bricklayers have an international agreement Should
non-union engineer come onto job everybody in
these crafts would quit"
All alliance Of unions in the building trades.
called the Building Trades Council, was developed
for the purpose of binding its member unions to the
sympathetic strike.
Restriction of Output.
Still other demands were made The painters.
for instance presented eight and one-half pages of
working rules, in which restrictions Of output was
prominent feature. The size of brush was limited
to five inches. Members of the union were required
mot to set pace for fellow workmen nor should
any foreman attempt to drive or speed any workmen
under his authority.",f any employe should be dis
charged for complying with this rule the rules a1-
thorzed the business agent to bring about strike.
These are but samples. There were demands ga
lore imposing onerous conditions and unnecessary
burdens upon the employer-RURDENS WHICH

Campaign Continued in 1917.

~dulHdlSH NOuIlnuCu III 1J4ts
In 1917 the campaign was continued Fourteen
unions made demands-Hoisting Engineers, Painters
and Decorators Electricians, Steam Filters Plaster
ers Mill Workers, Plumbers, Iron Workers, Lathers,
Sheet Metal Workers, Teamsters and Truck Drivers,
Tile Settlers, Building and Common Laborers and
Boiler Makers .D.. -.
In practically every instance where the "clbsed
shop" was not already claimed, demand for it was
made.
The new Teamsters and Truck Drivers Union,
for example, set forth the "cosed shop" demand in
printed contract requiring the employers to give
preference at all times to members in good standing
with the union" and adding: ut is further under
stood that all non-members employed shall declare
their intentions to affiliate with the union not later
than one week after being employed"
That would require that no team-driver, truck
driver, stableran or helper be allowed to work in
Omaha unless he join the union, pay the dues and
keep in "good standing" If any man refused to join
the union, the employer must dismiss him. And if
any union man failed to pay his dues or otherwise
lost his good Standing with the union the employer
must dismiss him, regardless of his competence or
other qualifications as workman Other unions pre-
sented similar demands
Sympathetic Strike-No Arbitration.
Another union demand is worth looking at. The

cepted the resignation Of the German
imperial chancellor, Theobald Won

in his place DR.. Georg Michaelis, food

He wrote that he believed unnecces-
sary the extension of government con
troll Of steel, iron, copper, cotton, wool,
leather and other products.
The substitute bill drawn by Sena.
tor Gore is opposed by the president
as an ~emasculation Of the administra-
ton legislation. He wrote that he
considered prompt final disposition of
the legislation imperative.
The presidents letter, which was

week, directing purchase by the gov
eminent of all stocks of distilled bev-
erages in bond at cost, plus 10 per
cent. -"
