new YORK FUR
WORKERS ENJOINED
Supreme Court Comes to Aid of
Bosses in Fight Against
Organization.

New York, Oct. 2o.-Justice New
burger of the supreme court has rush
ed to the aid sof bosses in their fight
against organized fur workers, who
have been on strike for FIVE months to
enforce equitable working conditions.
Justice Newburger has issued an in
junction To one unacquainted with
American institutions the courts order
reads as though we have no police pow
er to enforce law, or jury trials to hear
charges of law violation. According to
the employers, thuggery and gang rule
by the strikers is rampant, and an IN
junction is necessary to protect life.
Instead of suggesting to employers
that the law provides for such charges,
the court issued one of those sweeping
stthou-sha1t-not'' edicts that gladden.
the heart of cheap labor, sweat shop en-
p1oyers This order was issued on the
one-sided testimony of the employers.
Justice Newburger and these employ
ers are great believers in the American
ideal of justice for all citizens.
The fur workers are striking for the
union shop, 44-hour week, equal
division of work in slack seasons, arbi-
tration of discharge cases and limiting
overtime.

BAKERS UNION is
STILL WINNING
Kelly's Old Tyne Bakery Signed
Up This ek-2,500 Dance
Tickets Sold.

Still the New Haven Bakers Union
continues to advance surely toward a
100 per cent. victory in its strike
against those master bakers who were
determined to become part OF the
aggressive open shop movement calcu-
lated to put organized labor out OF
business.
The latest acquisition to the ranks of
the union shops is Kelly,s Olde Tyne
Bakery which signed up with the union
on Wednesday. Previous to the strike
this bakery had FIVE jourenymen work
ing but on account Of the decrease OF
business following the strike it has but
two journeymen left, according to the
report made to the union. After sign
ing up with the union the strike break
ers who had been employed there were
compelled to walk the plank as usual.
International Organizer Kerker who
has been directing the strike so sue
cessfully, announces that there are sew
eraI other bakeries in line to sign up
during the coming week Ihose st1n
remaining non-union are as follows:
Beck's, \ Harrington's, Thompson 5,
Roots and Chamberlain's. A break
within their ranks is believed to be i'm
minent
An indication of the great interest
being taken in the strike and of the
support that is being given to the union
IS found in the fact that over Z,OOO
tickets have been sold for the dance
which is to be given at Sons of Her
man hall. November Is. This promises
fo Be one OF the most enjoyable events
of the season and added interest IS
given to it by the fact that the awards

deserves it and all the good things that
are being said about him and his can
d1dacy IN the present campaign.
The press of this city and through
out the state, irrespective of its parti-
san affiliations, have been almost unani-
nous in their praise of Mr. O'Meara as
man and as a prospective legislator
No man in New Haven has been closer
to its industrial problems and has
handled them more fairly or dip1omati-
cally than Mr.. O'Meara. If all our So
called labor leaders were as .conscienti-
Gus and as just as he is, conflicts be-
tween labor and capital would be few
and far between. Mr.. O'Meara has not
only ingratiated himself to the great
laboring element he represents, but also
TO the business interests with whom his
work has brought him in contact
Everybody who knows Patrick
O'Meafa knows that he is a clean mind
ed, clear thinking, fair and square gen
tlenan- He is a real progressive, yet
there IS nothing radical or destructive
or foolish in his viewpoints. He is ex-
actly the kind of a man that we must
have in our legislative halls if we are
to expect a constructive and Just pro-
gram for the proper settlement of our
economic and industrial problems. No
man has given deeper study to these
questions and understands them better
from intimate experience with them
than does Patrick O'Meara.
We intend no disparagement to his
able opponent, Prof Charles Bakewe1l,
when we say that Mr.. O'Meara, both
by training and experience, is better
qualified to represent the Eighth Sen
atorial district In our state legislature
than is man whose training and ex-
perience has been largely confined to
the cloistered halls of a university. For
Professor Bakewe1Is courage and sim
cerity and his intellectual attaInments
we entertain the highest respect. We
are far from satisfied, however, with
his political viewpoints and judgments.
If we are not greatly mistaken, he
comes perilously close to being in
tellectual reactionary, which is the
worst kind of reacfionary. For the
splendidly progressive administrations
of Woodrow Wilson he has not single
kind word, and this attitude marks him
in a manner that should make it inn
possible for people, who want to pro-
mote legislative progress to accord him
their votes. A vote for Patrick +.
O'Meara is a vote for fair and pro-
gressive legislation. A vote for Pro-
fessor Bakewell is vote for an un-
known and untried factor in our fegis-
lative equation.
The Connecticut labor press., 1920-10-30

| Of the several members of organ
lied labor who are candidates for
political Office in Connecticut the most
prominent is the democratic nominee
| for senator from the Eighth district
Patrick F. O'Meara This is because
of his long years of service to the
cause, his widely recognized personal
integrity as a citizen and his official
position as president of the Connecti-
cut Federation of Labor.
1t is safe to predict that no candi-
date will receive such whole hearted
support from such a great variety of
constituents as will Mr.. O'Meafa 1t
will come regardless of political creeds,
personal beliefs or racial lines. Every
body who knows this mans rock ribbed
honesty and sincerity of purpose,
coupled with devotion to standard
of ideals which any man might envy,
will vote for him and be glad of the
chance.
Mr.. O'Meara comes before the voters
in his district not merely as demo-
crat, or labor leader or as the rep
resentative of any particular faction
but as citizen, actuated by sincere
desire to serve every fellow man to the
best of his ability-and that it is SOME
ability he has amply proven by previ-
Gus service.
With all due regard to Mr.. O'Meara's
most worthy opponent The Connecti-
cut Labor Press, knowing Mr.. O'Meara
as it does, fails to see any earthly reason
why Mr.. O'Meara should not poll every
vote in his district In any event it
feels sure that his victory will be one
of the most notable in Connecticut s
history of senatorial elections and it
congratulates in that event. not Mr..
O'Meara alone but his constituents for
having such a man to represent them
in. the senate where his work and his
example, as we have previously said,
will be of inestimable advantage to the
whole state.
During his candidacy Mr.. OMeara
has had many nice things said about
him in the press of the city and state
and among them is an editorial appear
ing in the New Haven Union during
the week as follows:
We are not surprised at the fatter-
ing ovations that Mr.. Patrick F.
O'Meara, democratic nominee for sem
ator in the Eighth Senatorial district,
is receiving at the various meetings at
which he speaks. Over at the car barns
the other evening at rally composed
largely of trolleymen and workers of
the Connecticut Company he was ac-
corded most cordial reception. He
