"Inconceivable'

T|MBERWORKERS
TAKE UP FIGHT FOR
H-SERV|CE MAN

&M Governor Hart, of this State, is
Sued a proclamation stating that
Nov. II. Armistice Day, should be a
legal holiday.
@ To those at home one year ago
That day it was a day of great re-
s13oicing. To those who were in Eu-
Sope and in training camps in the
service of their country it also was a
Il Jay of rejoicing. How much great
Ser the enjoyment of these boys
would have been if they had been
able to celebrate that day with the
folks at home. Knowing, of course,
That it was impossible at that time,
They looked forward to the next
AFArmistice Day" as a day that
meant as much or possibly more
than July 4.
III In Stanwood. Wash, there are a
great many returned service men,
Ind quite a number of them were
Employed at the Wisconsin Timber
Cos sawmill. AS they, like the
Others in the service of their coun-
Ftry, had no opportunity to celebrate
I"Armistice Day." they felt that this
wear they should have that right.
The eX-service men had no organ
aization of their own to place the
matter before the Wisconsin Tim
Der Co. They placed the matter
Before the local union of Timber
workers. The Timberworkers felt
that it was matter that they could
assist in and appointed a committee
to ask the company for holiday.
The men decided that they would
take half holiday. This was what
was done
The following morning when the
men returned to work one of the
men who had been on the Commit
tee was told that his services were
mo longer required as they wanted
men who would be on the job. This
was as much as to say that he was
discharged for not working on Ar
mistice Day. AS it is against the |
law to discharge a man for refusing
to work on legal holiday, they aft
erwards stated that he was dis
charged as he had not been doing
his work for the past three weeks.
If he had not been doing his work |
for as long a time as that the Wis
consin Timber Co. should hire a
new sawmill foreman, as it is los
ing proposition to keep men en-
ployed, and the sawmill foreman
should have discharged him long
before this and saved his company
money. There is something fishy

we are unionists, but because we

tect ourselves from the stigma of
having aided and abetted your
campaign of destruction"
Printers, pressmen, stereotypers
and mailers, numbering approXi-
mately 200, stopped their work
while the meeting was in progress,
the men from other departments
being called into joint session with
the P.-I. chapel of the Typograph-
ical Union. The Tuesday night ac-
tion followed as a result of intense
feeling on the part of the men the
night before when they discovered
full page advertisement in earlier
editions of the P-I., written by Ed
win Selvin, containing vicious ad-
vocacy of direct action against
unionists.
Late Wednesday afternoon the
management of the Post-Intelligen-
Ger, visited by a committee from the
organized mechanical workers,
agreed to publish their declaration
in its following issue.
The photo-engravers employed on
the paper also took part in the joint
chapel meeting and voted for the
resolution.
A page advertisement from
the Associated Industries was
hung on the copy hook in the
P.-I. composing room Tuesday
night, Nov. Is, preparatory to
one of the linotype operators or
printers setting it up. Before
it could reach the machine an
employee of the advertising
department came in, took it
from the hook and officially
killed" it.
