Last weeks issue Of the Bulletin
contained an article dealing with
the campaign the Federation is in
augurating to bring all locals in
the State into direct affiliation with
all Central Labor bodies and the
State Federation of Labor.
In discussing the subject the ar
ticle read that information received
at the Federation office was to the
effect that only approximately %
locals were affiliated with the Cen
tral Labor body at Tacoma. Secre-
tary Dickson, of the Tacoma Cen
trail Labor body, has requested that
this statement be corrected, as the
actual affiliation is 40 local unions.
We are informed that there are
approximately so locals at Tacoma,
and part Of the campaign will he
directed in that city to bring the
additional locals into direct affilia-
tion with the Central Labor body.
All preparations are being COM
pleted by the State Federation for
the Statewide conference which
convenes in the Labor Temple at
Seattle, October 80. Affiliated local
unions that have not as yet acted
on this matter should give it imme-
date attention and be represented

YOURS trulY
NORWAY-PACIFIC CONSTR,

r. ELWOOD ELLIS,
General SUPERINTENDENT

Mr.. Ellis after acknowledging
that the members of any union may
be under the control and orders of
that union, assumes the right to
say that no foreman shall take any
part in the activities of any union.
In other words Mr.. Ellis declares
he may control any act of fore
man and assumes the right to say
to any union what rules it may
adopt for the government of its
members. He might as we'll under
stand now that he has dipped his
oar into union affairs deep enough
to "catch a crab" with danger of
capsizing his boat.
Mr.. Ellis says: "In taking this
step we are only following general
practice in such cases
The practice may be general in
open shops where he has been en-
ployed, but it is denied that such a
practice is general in shops where
free men work.
Mr.. Ellis says; "A foreman must
be masters man"
Mr.. Ellis may have received his
orders to discharge Mr.. Swanson
from higher-ups. but certain it is
that he has made a lot of trouble
for his employers which could have
been easily avoided

WOMEN need SWAMP-ROOT

Thousands OF women have kidney and
bladder trouble and never suspect it.
Womens' complaints often prove to BE-
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in healthy
condition, they may cause the other or
gans to become diseased.
Pain in the back, headache, loss of an,
bition, nervousness, are often times symp
toms of kidney trouble.
Don't delay starting treatment. Dr.
Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a physicians pre-

be just the remedy needed to overcOm
such conditions.

Archangel, March 18.-The futile at
tack which the bOlsheviki delivered
Saturday on the allied and American
forces comprised the first serious at
tempt to cut the line of cOmmunica-
tons of the Dvina and Vaga columns.
The attempt was not only frustrated

losses.

which is % miles north of Beresnik, at
the junction of the Vaga and the
Dvina
The American-Russian detachment
at GOrka was well intrenched, and it
decisively repulsed the enemy, captur-
ing five prisoners and five machine
guns during the fighting. After the
attack the bodies of 81 bOlsheviki
were found. The allied force suffered
only one casualty man wounded.
The Vaga sector in the vicinity of
Kitsa is quiet, as are the other fronts.
American officers who returned from
the Vaga front declared that the boil
sheviki sustained exceedingly heavy
losses last week They related one
particular instance of such losses to
the correspondent. 1t occurred after
the enemy had RACED with artillery fire
nearly all the blOckhOuseS in ViStavka.
All the defensive troops withdrew
with the exception of a squad of
Americans, who lay concealed in a
partly destroyed blockhOuse with ma
chine guns. The enemy scouts adj
vanced and were permitted to cut the
harbed wire entanglementS. On doing
this they shouted back to their COM
rades that the village had been aban-
dOned.
When the first column of the boil
Sheviki walked unsuspectingIy UP to
the entanglements the Americans in
side the bOckhOuse turned their ma.
chine guns loose and moved down the
entire enemy party. After this the de-
fensive forces went back into Wis
tavka.
OF the total of SO Americans listed
as missing since the beginning of hos

ported that ten are prisoners in the
