HANNA AND LABOR

The following statement by four
statewide labor leaders largely rep
resenting the sentiment of organized
labor throughout the state, should at
once set at rest the attacks that are
being made on Judge Hanna's posi-
tion in connection with labor:
international Association of Ma
chinists, Albuquerque, New Mexico,
October 16, 1920.-Believing that
Judge Hanna, candidate for Governor
on the Democratic ticket, is being un-
justly slandered in certain localities
on account Of an alleged connection
with the open-shop movement in the
City of Albuquerque, we the under.
higned desire to make the following
statement:
Some three months ago, when the
name of Judge Hanna was being
quite widely discussed in connection
with the Governorship we called upon
him in his office at Albuquerque for
the. purpose Of investigating his sup
posed connection with the open-shop
movement, and for the further pur-
pose Of getting his views on the mat
ters concerning the general welfare
of Labor. Judge Hanna brought
out his files and showed us his cor
respondence in the matter and we are
absolutely convinced that his con-
nection with the open shop move
ment in Albuquerque, was that of
paid attorney Of the Albuquerque
Business Mems Association. In fact,
we were requested to examine his
books so that we might know he cx-
act amount he received for his legal
services in assisting the aforesaid AS
sociation in becoming Incorporated
under the laws Of the State.
We do not believe, after investi-
eating this matter, that Judge Han
mas connection with the affairs was
such as would indicate any unfairness
towards labor.
We might further state that Judge
ianna's attitude in the Gallup de-
portation cases some two or three
years ago was such as would indicate
a strong desire and disposition upon
his part to be absolutely fair towards
labor.
As compared with the Republican
candidate we believe that Judge
Hanna has a much better knowledge
Of our desires, ambitions and needs
-and we have no hesitancy in giving
as our opinion that Labor should sup
port Judge Hanna in this election.
