of an accepted word is not dis
orderly conduct.
There are conditions, however,
declared Judge Hardison, where
carrying a sign constitutes disor-
derby conduct.
For instance" said the court,
"if man were to step in front of
st. Patrick's parade carrying a
sign that stated that st. Patrick
was fraud, then he would be
guilty of disorderly conduct because
he would precipitate disorder-and
most likely riot"
The prosecution held that because
the sign bore the word "scab," the
colored non-union walters might
take offense and start riot, The
court failed to see where any trou-
BILE would result from the use of this
term as applied to colored non
unionists. The word "scab," the
court said, was universally known;
it has nothing to do With the color
of a person and it is not a word
calculated to breed disorder because
the public is acquainted with its
meaning and does not object to it.

OHIO STATE Fedora
TON Of MACH|N|STS

The Ohio State Federation of
Machinists met in Special Session at
Columbus the middle of this month.
The Publicity Committee of the
Federation issued the following
statement to the Labor News:
THE special convention of the
State Federation of Machinists of
Columbus settled down to business
on the first day, and when the re-
suits of the efforts of the various
committees are shown, the fact that
we are seeking compensation for
meritorious work and untiring
energy for patriotic service render
ed will come to light. The eight
hour proposition is nothing new to
us, although during the past four
years the machinists of this State
have labored along productive lines,
speed and for output, and were glad
to sacrifice the social end of the
day, the recreation so badly needed,
for service. The bonus system has
no champions among labor organi-
cations, as it lowers the standard of
pay per hour, creates dissatisfaction
and jealousy, creates special priv
| ileges for the few. Peace work has
ceased to be considered at any rate,
the railways of the country have al
most abolished this system in the
interest of common good to all con-
cerned, as it reduces the morale Of
the mechanic, cheapens the product,
and as the bonus system, creates
dissension and favoritism.
Democracy is here to stay, and
| if we as mechanics wish to enjoy
the blessings of the fruits of demo-
cracy, if we wish to enjoy the beau
ties of nature, and inhale the ex-
hilarating breezes of the great out
doors, we must get away from the
whirl of machinery and the noise of
the shops, and make way for more
recreation and diversion. Eight
hours per day, suitable compensa-
ton per hour, work for all, demo-
cracy rules. The boys have been
| loyal patient, persevering. We not
only ask of our employers, as faith
| full supporters of our constitution,
but we insist that we have voice
in this matter. A spirit of fairness
| has been evident throughout this
special session, a determination to
share in the glories of this war has
manifested itself, and as our boys
| went forward, ever forward, we
who were left behind expect to
continue the onward march of
civilization, of democracy, of COM
mon good to all. We are on our way;
justice is our cause, liberty our
standard, and undying patriotism
our pledge.
who will say that the Ohio
State Federation of Machinists is
not entitled to the meritorious con-
siderations as were proposed at this
special convention?

RECONSTRUCTION

March IL, 1919.
To All Organizations Affiliated
With the American Federation OF

MdTCH IL, lJlo'
To All Organizations Affiliated
With the American Federation OF
Labor.
Greetings:
The Seattle Central Labor Coun-
Gil respectfully urges your careful
and thoughtful consideration OF the
enclosed proposals for the recon-
struction of our organization along
lines dictated by present-day indus
trial conditions, and earnestly re-
quest your most energetic co-opera-
ton in bringing about these essen
tial improvements in the interests
of the wage-earners.
President Lincoln, speaking at
Hartford, in 1860, said: THANK
God we have a system of labor
where there can be strike. What
ever the pressure, there is a point
where the workingman may stop"
Yet what does the right to strike
avail us if we strike in such small
units as to make us an easy prey to
those who seek to exploit us? AS
matter of fact, the more effectually
we prepare to strike, the less strik-
ing We will have to do.
Let us remember the advice OF
Wendell Phillips: Organize and
STAND TOGETHER. Let the Ma
ton hear a UNITED demand from
he laboring voice"
Sometimes rivals criticize us be-
cause of our obvious weakness, but
we have nothing to fear from rivals
so long as we will profit by expe-
rience and through the application
of results of our best thought and
study keep strengthening our or
ganization according to the dictates
of common sense and practicability.
Believing that the above repre-
sents the sentiment of an over
whelming majority of the member
ship of the American Federation
OF Labor, this Council submits the
following propositions to you with
the modest request that they be
analysed and judged solely upon
their merits, and if you feel as we
do. that you put forth your utmost
efforts to carry them into effect.
WHEREAS, Experience Of the
most ardent and loyal unionists in
carefully and deliberately planning
to invoke the use of the strike
weapon as a last resort in their ef-
forts to secure certain measures of
