Timbermen Start
Educational Drive
Throughout South

1t is safe to predict that if the
present plans of the International
Union of Timberworkers are carried
out, and the general organizer now
in charge is retained, that it will be
only a short time before even the
manufacturers associations and en-
ployers in general are brought to
realize that instead Of organized la
Dor in the timber industry being a
detriment to them that it is an in
valuable asset.
Good progress is being made in
the work of promoting organization
among the timberworkers in the
South, and the meetings held to ed
ucate the workers, rather than rush
new members into local unions, is,
without a doubt, policy that will
mean a solid foundation for the fu-
ture, and the International Union Of
Timberworkers is to be congratu-
lated on their forethought and wis
dom in deciding that before large
numbers of new recruits are signed
up, the wage-earner shall be told
what the international Union of
Timberworkers stands for-What the
American labor movement means to
every man.
The present campaign marks a
new epoch in labor union work, and
it is hoped that every true American
engaged in the lumber industry in
the South will, without loss of time,
respond literally to the call sent out
by the International Union Of Tim
berworkers and join that 100 per
cent American organization.

Teachers Locked
Out At Lancaster
For Joining Union

When school teachers of Lancas-
ing wage from the machine-contr
school board of that city, ninty-one
formed union and affiliated with
the American Federation of Labor,
At the next meeting of the school
board eighty-two teachers, more than
half of the force, were denied re-
election. They are still locked out,
the schools of Lancaster are demoral-
lied and a live political issue has
been projected that has divided the
community into two groups.
No charges are brought against
the teachers and it is admitted on all
sides that among them are some of
the best educators in the city. They
were guilty of no offending other
than having attempted to secure
living wage by collective action, after
all other methods of presenting their
claims had failed.
Rotten Politics Control
Lancaster newspapers, never con-
spicuously friendly to organiged la
Dor, have made common cause with
the locked-out teachers and have
aroused the community to action. A
mass meeting was held to protest the
action of the school board. On the
platform were leading men of the
of the faculty of
Franklin and Marshall College, Re
formed church institution; clergymen
of various denominations, labor of
ficials and men active in all lines of
work.
Resolutions adopted demanded the
of the teachers "unless
justifiable charges of incompetency
and inefficiency are regularly estab-
lished."
The sentiment of the meeting was
voiced by Rev. Clifford Gray Twom-
bly,. an Episcopal rector, who said:
"The rotten political control of the
schools which allows powers-that-be
to make a plaything of its schools
that is what is really responsible for
this situation" 49,

STEEL REPORT
SHOCKS WORLD

The report of the Interchurch
is attracting international attention.
To the shame of the American press,
it must be said that the great English
newspapers have given the report
fairer treatment and more extended
space than it has received from the
daily papers here at home.
The Manchester Guardians hand
ling Of the subject may be regarded
as typical. The Guardian is the lead
ing paper of the Pittsburgh of Great
Britain, and while its views on pub
lie questions are generally liberal, it
cannot be expected to be entirely free
from the bias of the employing
class.
Nevertheless, the Guardian devotes
two columns to an editorial review
Of the report, and concludes with the
following significant paragraphs;
The struggle to establish collective
bargaining in the steel industry is
by far the greatest industrial con-
flict of this generation in America.
The policy of Judge Gary is reac-
tionary beyond the understanding Of
British manufacturers. 1t is con-
Quoted with brutality inconceivable
in community where law and order
have been long established.
The labor conditions of the Amer
lean steel industry are remnant of
the Wild West, although geographic
cally the industry is centered in the
conservative State of Pennsylvania.

THE INVISIBLE
GOVERNMENT
Going To Erect in Washington a
$2,500,000 Bribe-Giving
Headquarters

The "invisible government" is to
become visible. The point of Wis
ibility is to be the national capital.
The National Chamber of Commerce
which is the power behind the throne,
has decided to erect a $2,50000
building in Washington to house
all capitalist lobbies centered there.
Here is the announcement of the
enterprise:
THE idea is TO create nerve CEN
ter for all business, big and little,
that is affected by national affairs.
This is something that has been
needed in the past when the men
whose industries were being ad-
versely affected by ill-advised legis-
lation had merely a sporadic repre-
sentation at Washington. 1t was
the need Of this national represen-
tation of business interests which
gave birth to and has given strength
to the Chamber of Commerce of the
United States. The last year has
fairly shown US that our problems
are economic and social. In the
handling Of these problems, in so
far as legislative and executive au-
thority is concerned, political expedi-
ency is just as much a factor as
in the past. American business is
more directly affected by the prob
lens which confront it than any
other single interest in the country,
but unwise legislation and regulation
by the executive departments will
cause losses of countless millions of
dollars and perhaps jeopardize trade
both at home and abroad"
The "invisible government" will
concentrate at the capital repre-
sentatives of the interests and seek
special favors at the hand Of gov
|ernment, the repeal of income and
excess profit laws and the substtu-
ton of tares on consumption, of the
suppression of all agitation aimed
at the profiteers, and the enlarge
ment of opportunities for eXplOita-
ton.
No longer will it be necessary to
hold conferences in the offices of
government officials, or in hotel
rooms and corridors. If a business
man wishes to have conference with
government officials messenger
will bring them around to head
quarters, where everything will be
conveniently arranged for the prompt
dispatch of governmental functions.
The Chamber of Commerce of the
United States is the medium through
which "big business" operates. 1t is
in fact a lobby maintained by great
corporations, maintaining constantly
"men at Washington who know our
language and talk our language" as
leading business man expressed it.
The people will continue to be
without representation, unless they
scan carefully the records of con-
gressmen and return those who
"know and talk the language of
business"

HELP! HELP!

Hartley "hollers" for help.
Letters are going out from the
Hartley headquarters in Seattle to
all the big business concerns in the
State for contributions to his cam
paign fund. He wants as much as
they will give but not less than $50
each. If the first letter is ignored
another follows insisting that Hart
ley if fighting the battles of the
business interests.
The letter says; "Your contribu-
ton should be viewed in the light of
premium on an insurance policy
against confiscation of your prop
erty."
Confiscation, indeed!
The political gang to which Hart
ley belongs has we'll nigh piled up
tax burdens so high by taxation that
the "holler" for help ought to come
from not only big business firms but
everybody else in the state A few
more legislatures like the last three
and confiscation and bankruptcy will
follow.

reading clerk pro TEN.
The minutes of the Seattle and
Tacoma Central Labor Councils were
read and filed.
Criminal Syndicalism Law
Resolutions demanding the repeal
Of the State Syndicalism Law were
introduced by Delegate Howarth and
adopted. The resolutions follow:
Whereas, The Legislature Of the
State of Washington has enacted
what is known as the "State Grim
inal Syndicalism Law" and
Whereas, The effect of said legis-
lation has been to seriously restrict
our people in the exercise of the
rights of free speech, free press and
freedom of assemblage guaranteed
by the First Amendment to the Con-
stitution of the United States; and
Whereas, In the sO-called enforce
ment of the provisions of the Grim
inal Syndicalism' law only persons
known to be active in some branch
of the organized labor movement
have been apprehended, while en-
ployers of labor and editors Of their
paid publications, although known to
have advocated violence in resisting
the efforts of Organized Labor to
secure "Industrial Economic, Social
or Political change" (although it has
never been proven that any represen-
tative of any branch of Organized
Labor haas ever advocated violence as
a means of effecting such change,
remain un-molested by the officers
of the law; and
Whereas, The word "sedition" has
no place upon the statute books of
republic, but is term peculiar to
empires and monarchies; Therefore,
be it
Resolved, That we, the Everett
Central Labor Council in regular
session assembled, do severely CEN
sure the Legislators responsible for
the enactment of the Criminal Syn
dicalism Law" of the state of Wash
ington, and demand its speedy re-
peal and the immediate release of
all persons prosecuted under it. And
be it further
Resolver, That we, hereby, place
ourselves on record as being unalter-
ably opposed to any further enact
ment Of legislation restrictive of the
rights guaranteed by the Constitution
of the United States.

Painters Paint
Hartley Black

The Northwest Painters Confer
ence, at it's Monday afternoon ses-
sion in Seattle, unanimously passed
the following resolutions declaring
Roland H. Hartley unworthy of the
support of laboring men and women
in his candidacy for the Republican
nomination for Governor.
Whereas, one Roland Hartley, from
Everett, is now a candidate on the
Republican ticket, and
"Whereas, this individual is an
avowed enemy of labor, both organ
lied and unorganized, and in his plat
form is utterly opposed to any meas
ure that is of benefit to labor, and
"Whereas, this Hartley recently
published in the Seattle Times a
statement that he was to speak at
a banquet given by the District
Council of Painters, No. 81, in honor
of the delegates to the Northwest
Painters, Conference, now in session,
and
"Whereas, we find that such per-
mission has not been granted by
anyone connected with the district
conventions; therefore, be it
"Resolved, that the Northwest
Painters Conference go on record
condemning this man Hartley as not
worthy any support of any labor
man or woman, and be it further
Resolved, that the conference go
on record as refusing to hear any
representative of the above named
Hartley at any gathering of the
painters or their friends"
The Conference then pledged its
support to the Farmer-Labor Party
and passed resolutions urging af-
filiated locals to give the new party
their moral and financial support.

REMEMBER OUR
CONGRSSMEN

Lest some of us forget, or don't
know that Washington's congressional
delegation is not in sympathy with
labor, the following information is
printed: Both Of our senators and all
five of our representatives voted for
the Infamous Cummins- -Esch bill, re-
turning the railroads to private own
ership.
List of Undesirables
Senators-Miles Poindexter of Spo-
kane, when elected claimed to be a
progressive and a friend of labor,
but has gone over to the pluto
cratic crowd.
Wesley L. Jones of Yakima, (but
now claims Seattle as his home, as
he is a candidate for reelection and
the hold-over senator is from east
of the Cascades), father of the ship
ping bill, which was passed to dis
pose of United States ships to pri-
vate interests. This law will injure
and may cripple the United States
merchant marine.
Representatives. F. Miller,
of Seattle, 1st District.
Lindley H. Hadley of Bellingham.
Hadley is the representative from
this, the 2nd District. He is a fair
type of the reactionary gang.
Albert Johnson of Hoquiam, in the
3rd District. He is in the same class
with Hadley.
j. w. Summers of Walla Walla,
in the 4th District. He also is in
the same class with Hadley.
J.. Stanley Webster of Spokane, in
the 5th District. This fellow is
parading as a friend of labor. He
is the worst Of the whole bunch and
they all voted for the Cummins- -Esch
bill. Do not forget Mr.. Webster. He
worked hard in Congress to do harm
to labor and now deserves much
needed rest.
