Service Laundry Company

NJ A. Griffin, manager of the
Mutual Laundry Company, of Seat
tie, visited the Council and in a
short speech described the magnlft-
cent success of that company after
surmounting almost insurmount-
able obstacles. He came here to
give the benefit of his experience
to our Laundry Service people and
strongly urged that labor men in
vest in stock of the Everett com
pany now organizing. Mr.. Griffin
said he had examined all the pros
poets of the Everett proposition
and found it sound and a first-class
investment He accused our work
ing folks in Everett of lacking
punch for not putting this fine EN-
terprise across now. No invest

the members council of the Cham
her of Commerce at lunch Friday.
Instead Of preaching and balfev-
ing the doctrines of supppessing
free speech and assembly and tree

aside its largest auditoriums and
parks and invite all people TO speak
in them who think they have
grievance. DR. Devine declared.

ready to resort to violence as is

and on bended knees, we should be
listening for new ideas Of social
reconstruction, ready to grasp
them and put them into effect
with a minimum of friction and

change is just as thorough as revo-

WOMEN ORGANIZERS

The State Federation decided,
after a full discussion of the wOm-
en-organizer problem, to change
its policy in this respect and dis
continue after the 18th of Febru-
ary, the employment of all OF the
women organizers now working
for the Federation, and after that
date select and employ permanent
ly one woman organizer at large to
cover the entire State, and devote
herself to the problems effecting
the women workers.
It was the opinion of the Board
after carefully perusing all OF the
reports on file at headquarters,
that while a great deal of benefi-
cial work had been done by all OF
the organizers employed, that the
results obtained in general had not
been sufficient to warrant con
tinuation of this abnormal eXpeh-
diture, and that one woman organ
izer for the State, going from com
munity to community, when neces-
sity occasioned it, and co-operat-
ing with the organizers mad repre-
sentatives of the various. crafts and
trade organizations, could render
all of the service possible to DC
furnished by the Federation. Who

FEDERATION SECTION
COMMITTEES MEET

The three standing committees
created under the State Fedora
tion OF Labor, were in session last
week with the Executive Council
The committees were composed a:
follows; Building Trades: Frank
Cotterill, Seattle; Charles Rich.
mond, Tacoma; Bert Williams
Yakima. Miscellaneous Trades:
Alice Lord, Seattle; w. R. Glover
Tacoma; o. A. Dirkes, Spokane
Metal Trades: James A. Taylor, Sc
attle; R. Hennessey, Tacoma; c
H. Middleton, Spokane.
c. H. Middleton failed to attend
the meeting, and the reason fol
his failure to attend did not be-
come apparent until the letter in
vittng him to attend the confer
snce was returned to headquarters
through the failure on the part OF
the post office department to deliv-
sr the same, which had been ad-
dressed care of his organization al
Spokane. Laxity on the part OF
hose making the recommendation
In furnishing the proper address
10 the headquarters, was responsi.
bic for this result.
The joint meeting of the Com
mittees was first held with the EX-
ecutive Council, and a general dis
cussion Of problems to be dealt
with took place. The committees
then met separately and took up
separately the problems affecting
the sections embraced in their de-
partment. 1t was later agreed that
the committees would get in as
close touch as possible with the or
ganizations embraced in their de-
partment and prepare to meet with
the delegates to the next conven-
ton. in caucus, and make definite
recommendations to the next con-
vention to expedite the work con-
templated by the committees.
1t was agreed that where 1t be-
came necessary on the part of any
of the members of the committees
to 90 out of their own locality, in
order to promote the interests OF
their section, that a credential au-
thorizing them to represent the
Federation would be furnished

es of the mission met by the Fed

FALSE STATEMENT
EXPOSED
Everett, Wash. Jan. 10.

Everett, Wash, Jan. 10.
Editor Labor Journal:
We wish to take up limited
space in your publication to refute
certain reports and charges which
are being circulated around the
city in the interests of one A. c.
Snyder, who was recently listed as
being unfair to organized labor.
The charges are made that the
Butchers Union is nun and DOM
mated by the Master Butchers AS
sociation of Everett, and that Sny-
der's market was put on the unfair
list at the instigation and request
of the master butchers. On the
face of it, these charges would
seem ridiculous and no answer
would be made to them but for the
fact that many residents of Ever
EFT, including some members of or
ganized labor, are unfamiliar with
the standing of Mr.. Snyder and the
so-called municipal meat market"
which he owns and operates. think
ing that he is operating this place
of business directly for, or under
jurisdiction of the city.
Such is not the case, however.
Everett's municipal market, and
particularly the municipal meat
market, is municipal in name only.
The city owns the shed or building
in which the business is conducted
and rents the stalls or departments
out to private individuals who OPP
crate them privately for their own
private gain.
The grievances resulting in Mr.
Snyder's meat market being placed
on the unfair list have no connec-
tion whatever with the Master
Butchers Association, but were en-
tirely with the Butchers Union.
These grievances extended over a
considerable length of time, during
which Mr.. Snyder was given fully
as much consideration as any other
market would have received, on ac-
count of the conditions above stat
ed. He persisted however, in
breaking his agreements with the
union time after time, and COM
mittees were waiting on him al
most continually in an earnest en-
deavor to give him just and fair
treatment and vet accord that
same treatment to the union and
the other meat markets of the city
After pursuing this policy for
several months, at last the patince
of the union was exhausted and it
was decided that no further con-
sideration would be given Mr.. Sny-
der, and his name was placed on
the list with other parties who are
unfair to labor.
This union needs no other or
ganization to direct its affairs and
Mr.. Snyder can only get back into
the good graces of the organized
workers of Everett by dealing di-
rectly with this union and comply-
ing with its regulations the same
as other union meat markets are
doing.
Hoping this will clear away
some of the false statements being
circulated against us, and asking
the sympathy of the public in our
Just fight against the Municipal
