Non-UniOn Shoppers
Defied By GOmpers

Washington, Oct. 9.-"Bring forth
what treachery your cunning anc
your greed may devise" is President
Gompers' defy to the chamber Of
commerce of the United States, which
recently declared in favor of the
non-union shop and individual bar
gaining.
Writing in American Federationist,
current issue, President Gompers
says:
"For several years the national as
sociation of manufacturers function
1t sought the destruction of the la.
Dor movement. Its policy was t.
prevent by any means legislation in
the interests of labor and the people
generally. But it had this at least
to it's credit, it's open enmity to the
cause of labor and justice. The in
vestigation by the senate and the
house of representatives brought the
national association of manufacturers
nto contempt. Since then its activ
les, if there have been such, have
Jeen insignificant, un-noticed anC
Without respect. The United States
Chamber of Commerce has taken its
,lace. 1t assumes a degree of re
spectability wholly unwarranted an6
never pretended by the national as
sociation of manufacturers. The
former was a bold buccaneer; the
latter is consummate Iago.
''In answer, the labor movement
of America has but this to say to
Chamber of Commerce of the
ted States and to all who are the
7emies of labor and the foes of
rogress:
Devise what schemes you will
bring forth what treachery your cum
ming and your greed may devise
the working people of the United
States will not submit to injustice
will not consent to reaction, will not
forgego the right to struggle onward
and will not forget how to fight.
very effort to undermine the

every suggestion of reaction in ou,

ReactiOnaries in
Discard

Some of the more important com
mittees of Congress are shot to
pieces as a result of recent state
primaries. While the "old guard
seems to be having things pretty
we'll its own way, the returns disclose
that many of them are going to have
an opportunity to mediate upon then
records in the placid environments of
private life.
Three members of the House Com
mittee on Interstate and Foreign
Commerce, including the chairman
and vice chairman, have terminated
their official careers. This commit
tee assisted in framing the transpOr-
tation bill
The workers are concentrating
their fight against reactionary Con
gressmen and their campaign Is more
successful than is pleasing to their
enemies. They are not winning ev-
cry struggle, but they are recording
enough victories to prove that when
aroused and determined the produc-
ers are invincible.
The wisdom of labor's non partisan
campaign is being justified every
where. Privilege servers are winning
only when the workers are divided
During the remaining days of the
campaign an earnest effort will be
made to smooth out differences and
have all liberals agree upon candi-
dates opposing Congressman who be
trayed the people.
Labor can have just the sort of
60
enough to make an effort to obtain
it. When the final roll is made up it
will be clearly established that sew
eral millions voters were in real
earnest when they set out to dethrone
worthless officials who forgot that
there would come a day of reckoning
Those who have any doubt on this
point might communicate with Chair
man Esch, who fell by the wayside,
and Senator Cummins, who had the
toughest fight of his life at the
primaries and is now facing another
just as bitter, with less promise of
winning.
That labor's strength is appraised
at its true value is demonstrated by
many reactionaries who are trying to
fake up records that will pass mus
ter. Very few of them are prepared
to repeat statements made during the
recent session of Congress, when ev-
cry day was field day for labor
haters and baiters and the Congress
sional Record was filled with wild
charges affecting the producers of
the land.
Labor has its sleeves up and is
going at its job in a thoroughly
workmanlike manner.
