APPEAL FOR AID

The Shipyard Workers at Tacoma
are on strike to enforce observance
of an agreement entered into be-
tween the representative of the
Metal Trades Unions, on the one
hand, and the representatives of the
Shipbuilders, with the consent of
the representatives of the Govern
ment, on the other hand.
This agreement provided for an
increase in wages, and is being OBJ
served and the increase paid at Sc
attic and elsewhere. The members
of the Tacoma Metal Trades Unions
were notified that this increase,
provided for in the signed agree
ment to be effective October LIST,
could not be carried out, and have
followed the only coure left open to
them under such circumstances
strike, and have been out since De-
tober list.
The members of the different Met
al Trades organizations have been
among the most generous in rally
ing to the support of other organ
izations when in need of assistance.
Their contributions have always
been among the most liberal. and
given with a free hand. They are
in need themselves now and the eX-
chequer of the entire Labor Move
ment of our State should be opened
wide to them. They have been on
the street now for three weeks, and
through the existing eXtortionate
cost of living, many of them are in
actual want.
Their cause is the most JUST
cause that ever neCessitated a
strike. The principle involved is of
the utmost importance to Labor ev-
erywhere-the strict observance of
agreements mutually entered into.
Send all moneys, clothes, food, etc,
to this office, which in turn will re-
ceipt for it and Immediately turn it
over to the proper committees at
Tacoma. Act at once! Donate
generously.

TACOMA LABOR WILL
GET TOGETHER

The following call has been issued
by the State Federation to all Locals
and Trade Sections in the City of
Tacoma:
The Labor Movement of our State
is facing the seVerest test of its eN-
istence. A carefully laid plot on
the part of the organized employers
Of the Nation and state to break tho
backbone of our Movement and es-
tablish the open shop, is being car
ried out. The fight is on at Seattle
now. 1t may start at Tacoma any
day.
There is too much division in your
ranks now to successfully withstand
this assault. The Labor Movement
of your City and of the entire state
must be thoroughly reunited in the
interest of all concerned. The per-
sonal animositios that have hereto
fore divided you must be buried. The
causes of division also must be elm
mated, and this can only be accom-
plished by a thorough understanding
OF the causes through intelligent dis
cussion of the same. A united front
must be restored.
AS a preliminary step to bringing
about closer cooperation and unity
throughout the entire movement Of
Tacoma, the state Federation is
hereby calling into conference in the
Labor Temple at Tacoma, at o \. NJ.
on Sunday. November End, the Pres
idents. Secretaries and Business

SEATTLE'S GANG
OF IMPOSTERS

Seattle, Wash, Oct. "a, 1919.
To all Affiliated Local Unions, Cen
trail Labor and Metal Trades
Trades Councils.
Greeting:
The Central Labor Council of Sc
attic, under whose auspices the at
fairs of the Mooney Defense for the
Northwest has been conducted, at
its regular meeting, Wednesday, Oc-
tober 3. discharged all committees
in connection herewith, and order
ed them to discontinue any further
activities or collection of funds.
Despite this official order Of the
Seattle Council, which possessed the
full authority in the premises, for
mer members of this committee are
continuing their activities and are
obtaining money from Local Unions
and individual members of organ
lied labor under false pretenses.
This betrayal Of the trust reposed
in them by the Labor Movement of
Seattle, on the part of some of the
members of the Mooney Committee,
is not wholly unexpected The fail
ure to secure any material benefit
for the cause of a new trial for
Thomas j. MOoney--in fact, the Sc
rious injury done this just cause
is almost entirely due to their activ-
tiles.
The cause of Mooney" was sub
ordinated to a campaign of disrup-
ton of the American Federation of
Labor, of lying, slanderous attacks
on officials of the movement gem
orally, and to spreading propaganda
inimical to the best interests of our
movement. Since the action of the
Seattle Council of October Is, in
dismissing them, a more vicious
campaign than ever has been
launched by them. Charges that
Jimmie Duncan, Secretary of the
Council, has sold out; that the
Union Record has sold out; and
many other equally vicious and pre-
posterOus statements, are now being
made by them Proof of such state
ments being made by them has been
furnished this office.
The following official figures of
funds collected and expended by this
Committee should prove interesting

FOOL" STRIKES Do
NOT WIN ANYTHING
From international Moldcre' Jour
nall

t"N-.
ment. mo strike is ever lost
There is good deal Of truth i'm
this, for the workers always learn
practical lessons from a strike
which they failed to win at the
time. Even though the object for
which the strike took place was not
secured, the experience may have
taught some valuable lessons The
fact is, however. that there is such
a thing as a Fool" strike, and dur
ing recent months there have been
several, both at home and abroad
A man who would invest his mon
cy in a business before having Civ
on thorough consideration to his
chances for success, would be called
a fool by some, and a body of work
men who decide to strike without
having given sufficient thought TO
their prospects for winning, might
very properly be said to have gone
on Fool strike
There is more than ore reason
why Fool strikes should be
avoided.
The Fool" strike tends to i'm
press the employer with the belief
that, while strikes arc costly to
him, he need have no particular
fear of those who participate in
them, because thotr lack Of general
ship and practical methods make a
victory for the strikers almost i'm
possible.
The Fool strike also has the
effect of alternating public support
to a greater or lesser degree, and
practical trade unionists thoroughly
understand the fact that one Of the
most valuable assets which trade
unionists and which strikers can
have, is strong public support.
A fool" strike also has this bad
effect upon the strikers: As a rule,
many of them have not been mem
bers of their organizations long
enough to become thoroughly in
formed as to the methods of trade
unionism. They organize to i'm
prove their condition. They strike
because, in their opinion, this will
enable them to make more rapid
and satisfactory progress. When
the strike fails many of them
reach the conclusion that trade
unionism itself may b. all right.
and that strikes are frequently
won, but that in so far as they are
concerned, peculiar conditions sur
rounding them make strikes and
trade-uDionism Of little value. IT
is one of the most difficult tasks TO
reorganize such men.
Some advocates Of Fool" strikes
take much more pleasure in playing
to the gallery and stirring UP bit
torness Of feeling toward ann1overs
than in discussing the actual situa-
ton which the workers must doal
with So that men are fraouen+1y
guided more by their foo1ings than
bv their reason

labor in Seattle, or if not already
possessing it, would later secure it,
which has not proven the case; and
his further belief that without the

proposition could not be put over,
