How Liquor Men Tried to FIim-Flam
President Wilson

In tWo-page advertisement which appeared in Wash
ingtOn newspapers while the Senate discussing the
question of war-prohibition declared that 2O82637
union workngmen pettoned the President and Congress
against cutting off their booze"
THIS ADVERTISEMENT WAS FAKE
Here are the facts:
First, according to the official report Of the
rotary Of the American Federation Of Labor at
the time this petition being prepared there
10000 fewer members in the Federation than
there alleged signers OF the petition
Second only twenty 1.-TWO states are mentioned in
this petition, and yet the number of alleged sign
ers from but twenty-five states is greater than
the total membership of the American Federation
OF Labor in forty-eight states.
Third as a matter of fact this petition was not
signed by individual workingmen In most
a small minority of the members of the Organi-
cations mentioned presumed to speak for the
tire membership
Fourth, only AS local labor bodies out of $4,000
ocal labor unions are listed as having signed the
petition.
Fifth, in many cases individual trade unonists
counted again and again: first in their inter
national organizations; second in their state labor
bodies third in their central labor unions; fourth,
in their local unions; fifth, in such organizations
as personal liberty leagues, mutual benefit soci-
enumerated being identified with union label
trade departments, labor temple associations, sick
benefit funds, mutual benefit societies and per-
sOnal liberty leagues counted second time
in bona fde labor unions.
THE ALLEGED PETITION is A ISLANDER AND AN
INSULT TO VAST NUMBERS OF THE FINEST TYPE
Or AMERICAN WORKINGMEN.
Besides-it is deliberate attempt to deceive not
only the workingmen but the public in general
The who printed and paid for this advertise
ment know that they lied. Every trade uniOnist
, who stops to think about it knows that they lied
Any who read the English language
knows that they lied-f he will take the trouble to
anaIyze their figures.
If the leaders of the wet campaign lied ABOUT work
ngmen they will lie TO workingmen and they will lie TO
and ABOUT anybody ese-even the President of the Unit
ed States-its anything to get away with the goods.
