ANTI-UNION
PRETENSE
Strongly Denounced By
Methodist Clergy

New York.-"In the light of what
happened in the steel industry, where
the so-called American principle OF
employment has been fully demon
strated over period of years, it
also seems quite clear to US that the
success of the present open shop
campaign would mean the establish
ment Of q closed shop-closed against
union labor, and would return large
numbers of wage earners to the liy-
ing standards of sweated industries, :"
is one of the strong declarations by
the Methodist federation for social
service in a statement just issued
"In the light Of what is now hap
pening in certain local mining dis
tricts in West Virginia" continue
these church men, Eve regard it as
certain that the consummation of this
open shop campaign will perpetuate
and increase chaos, anarchy and war
fare III our industrial life
''The leaders of this open shop
campaign announce themselves as
champions OF the rights and freedom
of the unorganized man, but the kind
of freedom and protection that the
so-called individual rights policy act
ually gives to the unorganized man
can be ascertained by reading the re,
port Of the interchurch movement on
the steel strike.
"In the steel industry this labor
policy, conceived in the same spirit
as the present open shop campaign
and defended on the same ground of
right and principle, has meant the
destruction of all labor organization,
long hours, low standards Of living
and the denial of civil liberties to en-
tire communities.
''The practical results Of this right
of powerful corporation to deal with
wage earners as individuals do not JUS
tify it as either right or a principle.
This movement is the embodiment
of a determination repeatedly ex-
pressed in war time by certain lead
ers of finance and industry to put
labor III its place after the war

LUMBERMEN'S
GREED
Exposed BY Union Timber
Workers

Anacortes, Because Of an
attempt by the Anacortes Lumber
and Box Company to reduce wages
of its organized timber workers
these employees presented figures that
expose the greed of this concern.
The company recently closed its
plant and shortly afterwards announc-
ed that operations would be resumed
with a wage reduction of $1.28 a day.
The unionists published statement
by the company in which it is shown
that enormous profits, as high as $50
a thousand, have been continually
made during the last few years up to
last July. Now, owing to the cost of
lumber and because logs are costing
the same figure as they did last April
