Unfair, Unjust and Unwise

Employees shall ask for recognition of union

Such ultimatum recentls hurled ut the aborng
of Minnesota by the public safety commission Of that
state. The commission was appointed by Gov j. A. A.
Burnqust and is removable by him Mt any time.
Gov. Burnquist has been asked by the nationai
labor board to explain why the commission took unto
itself authority to make laws forbddng workngmen who
belong to labor organizations or may become mem
bers from asking recognition of their unions In other
words why the commission insists that the open shop
shall continue exist in Minnesota in all places where IT
existed before the began.

The ostensbe for this unfair attempt to In
fringe upon the constitutional rights OF workingmen the
commission announces. is to speed up war work.
This in face of the fact that work done by union
labor has been done faster and better than In open shops
From such a step this commission might take
unto itself the authority to forbid all meetings OF labor
unions and the admission of members.
