RIGHT TO
WALKOUT
IS DENIED

WASHINGTON, d. c., April II.
The senate today by a vote Of
"a to %, refused to approve
labor's right to strike in war
time.
BY that vote it rejected con-
ference report on a bill penaliz-
ing destruction OF war material
and interference with production.
The report was rejected be-
cause a new clause was written
in by the conferees specifically
providing that none of the penal
ties in the act should apply to
workers who struck in an effort
to get higher pay or better work
ing conditions.
The provision provoked the
most bitter denunciation OF
strikes in war time. Some sena-
tors declared that while labor
has every right to demand prop
er wages and working conditions
it has no more right to hold up
production of war material by
striking than an army has a right
to jeopardize the winning OF .
battle by striking.
The bill imposes a penalty OF
80 years in prison or $4,000 fine
on any person destroying war
material or interfering with its
production

TELLS why TACOMA
LOST 7-CEMT SALMON

Why Tacoma failed to connect
with the salmon that was sup
piled by the state hatcheries this
spring for sale to consumers at
z cents a pound, was explained
by C. M. Riddell at a meeting at
the home of Mrs. A. A. Rankin,
1882 31st ST., Thursday.
The candidate for mayor
charged that the failure of Mayor
Fawcett to accept the proposition
of State Fish Commissioners OAR
win until after Seattle had done
so and established claim to the
salmon was responsible for Ia
coma's loss.
He purposes. II elected, he said,
to see that the city is ready to
handle seven-cent salmon when
the next run occurs in September.
Riddell read letter from State
Fish Commissioner l.. II. Darwin,
as follows:
Tacoma Had First Chance.
There is nothing that would
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1918-04-11

have pleased me better than to
have been able TO furnish the city
of Tacoma with some of our
hatchery fish this year.
The first propositioJ we
made for the furnishing OF these
fish was to Mayor Fawastt OF
Tacoma.
II advised him that we cared
to furnish them only to munich
politics that would agree to sell
them at cheap price that would
still enable the city to pay the
cost of their handling.
II waited quite while TO get
reply from the mayor, and in
stead OF accepting our PROPOSE
tion, he advised that he had ar
ranged with some private dealer
who would pay us six cents a
pound and sell it at 10 cents,
whereas we did not want the pub
lie to be charged more than
seven cents a pound and We were
willing to sell to them at 5 or
