KEPT PRESS ASSOCIATION
DEVIATES FROM RULE IN
CASE OF STRIKING PRINTERS

The Associated Press says the news
papers OF an eastern city are now
operated as open" shops, following
strike OF the printers.
Ordinarily the strike OF a few
printers and the subsequent rafting
OF two newspapers In jerkwater
town would be beneath the notice of
the Associated Press. but now that
the drive Is on for the open" shop
in the printing industry. that corpora
tion will probably give as much pub
licity as possible TO this kind Of
news
Since the fret of the year more
than s0e daily newspapers in The
United States have signed agree
ments with the union. many OF them

ming the Associated Press reports
carefully for mention Of these trans.
actions, but SO far have failed to find

No-STRIkE BILL is
INTRODUCED IN NEW
YORK LEGISLATURE
fny The Federated prees.l

Albany. NJ Y New York Bureau
A "no-strike's billmasquerading un.
der the title of a bill TO prevent 'un-
warranted" strikes-has been intro
dnced into the Assembly of the State
Legislature here II is regarded as
having more than an even chance OF
passage. The bill embraces some of
the features OF the Kansas Industrial
Court law, although In drafting II
there evidently was an attempt 30 to
modify or TO define these features as
not uhduly to alarm labor.
The bin defines "unwarranted"
strikes as those engaged in by persons
whose terms of employment are fixed
by the United States, the State OF
New York. or any political subdivision
thereof; strikes in violation of the
terms OF any arbitration award !;
strikes where there Is no trade dis
pute. involving issues Of direct benefit
to the acting parties. Lock-outs un.
der the same circumstances are SINH
larly prohibited Pieketing and Civ
ing financial or material aid to pro
hibited strikes are also forbidden.
Should the bill become law, any
person convicted under its provisions
would be subject to a fine OF $50 for
the first offense; for the second Of
fense 10 fine of 800 or 30 days In
Jail, or both, and for a third offense
to a fine of $1,000 or one year in prison
or both.
