THE CHECK OFF" SYSTEM

In the recent trouble in the West Virginia coal fields Federal Judge Anderson of In djanapoIis, granted the operators an injunction against the ''check- off, system
 Every essential detail of the present cooper ativc understanding between union miners and coal operators throughout the country was at tackled in a suit which sought to have the United Mine Workers of America declared an unlawful organization. The suit was brought m by the Borderland Coal Corporation on behalf of three score non-union companies in the Williamson field of West Virginia, where strike troubles have prevailed since 1919.
 Besides asking an injunction to stop all un- ion efforts to organize the Williamson field the suit further asked that the court order end the ''closed shop' for coal mines, prevent the union from acquiring monopoly of mine labor and abolish the ''check-Of system, by which union operators act as collecting agency for the union withholding members dues from their wages. Officers of the union contend that the suit threatens the every heart amt soul of the umOn''
 In support of the attack on the legality of the union the suit alleged that since 1898 th" union and operators of the general compct- tive frId comprising, Illinois, Ohio, lndi- ana and western Pennsylvania, have been in d conspiracy to Stiflc the competition of the non-u union West Virginia field. In that year, the union won recognition of the operators of the four states, the written agreement also cs tnbishing an cight-hour day.
 The "chrck off" provided for in this and later agreements was alleged to finance the union in its fight to organize nOn-ui0n coal fields, Hnd this system k declared to be ''thc very life and soul of this conspiracy and of this unlawful organization" In this conncc tion, it W;S alleged that contracts between the union and the operators are illegal, and that provisions of the Sherman antitrust and Clay ton acts are violated.

A STRANGE OMISSION

In ono of the Seattle papers early in the month appeared a cartoon indicating the rare trade opportunities of the city. Alaska was, strangely enough, omitted. Since that cartoon was published, the statement has been reitcr
 ated that the Yakima apple crop is eleven times the value of Alaska'S annual gold pro duet, and other invidouS comparisons But these enthusiasts who make any such state mcnt do not understand the basic facts which have stronger bearing upon the subject. In the first place the apples of Yakima or Wen atchce belong to those two sections. It is true that they are of great value, but they can not be classed as a Seattle product. Neither can the gold of Alaska. In fact, most of the gold may have gone to other places. Everyone rec organize the worth of the country over the Gas cades but why compare the two The Territory to the north has been splendid purchaser of Seattle goods for the past twenty-five years and this is hardly the time to minimize the value of that buying market or to compare it with any other section. To be exact, for the eight months ended August 3i last, Alaska imported merchandise to the value of $14,344- 305 from the United States and $527 ,040 from foreign countries; the latter being coal from Canada and furs from Siberia. Of the merch- andise sent north from Uunited States ports Seattle merchants furnished $8,606,583 worth,
