Mans First Instinct
Ignored By High Court

The instinct of self preservation
was ignored by the United States
supreme court in the Duplex -Machin-
ists' case.
The court held that boycott by
New York machinists against this
Michigan concern is a violation of the
Sherman antitrust law, which penal
ICES interference with interstate COM
merce.
Behind this boycott is d strike that
involved but bare dozen machinists
employed by Duplex. And behind the
strike and boycott loom a notice by
other printing press manufacturers
that the Duplex must be put on the
same eight-hour basis as they, must
pay the same wage and agree to the
same working conditions.
The Duplex refused this demand OF
their machinists, who struck Other
machinists refused to handle the Du-
plex press, and asked fellow trade
unionists to aid them. These machin-
lists were as involved in the Duplex
strike as the Duplex machinists, for
if the latter failed the others were
warned by their employers that the
Duplex must be placed on the same
competitive basis. This was notice
that if Duplex were permitted to oper.
ate under the 10-hour, low-wage sys-
tenn, they would do likewise.
1t was under these conditions that
the Duplex complained to the United
States supreme court that New York
machinists were interfering with in
terstate commerce.
And the court made the astounding
decision that the New York machin-
lists were not directly involved in the

strike and that their conspiracy"
should be enjoined
The court ignored the old maxims:
"He who seeks equity must first do
equity" and "He who seeks equity
must come into court with clean
hands"
Duplex did not "come into court
with clean hands" 1t was attempt
ing to debase conditions of it's en-
ployes and force it's competitors to
adopt the same policy.
And the court gives notice to other
machinists that if they do not aid in
breaking the Duplex strike and fasten
upon themselves the 10-hour day, they
are in contempt of court.
The courts decision is commercial
ism rampant and has brought howls Of
glee from every reactionary in the
land.
This decision is in line with the
courts refusal, last March, to dis
solve the steel trust. In this case the
minority opinion declared that the
trust was formed ''in plain violation
and bold defiance" of the Sherman
antitrust law.
But the majority of the court re-
fused to dissolve this trust because
"it may be a serious detriment to the
foreign trade

RAP AT UNIONS
Taken By Quakerites in @.
T. Manner

Philadelphia officials of the state
chamber of commerce demand legis-
lation that would permit voluntary
associations Of seven or more mem
bers to sue or be sued. Under this
system a trade union could be sued.
This demand is in line with the
movement that has for its purpose
the incorporation of trade unions.
Capital (meaning capitalists can be
sued" say these advocates of incor-
poration "and why not labor?"
When the capitalist incorporates it
is to arrange matters so that he can
limit his liability to the extent of the
amount of money he invested. A
trade union is a nonprofit organization
and the capitalist wants it incorporat-
ed so the homes of the members OF
this trade union viii be threatened be-
cause Of the acts of any one member
or group of members.

break, and SO forth. In some instances
it is asserted, employers have paid for
Secret" reports sent out from the
machnists' headquarters here. Mr..
Dawson declared yesterday that any
employer in the country could have q
copy Of any report sent out if he
would write to the office here and ask
for it.
Copies of the secret" reports were
exhibited. In most cases the docu-
ments for which the employers are
said to have paid $25 were verbatim
reproductions of the real reports with
a paragraph inserted here and there
tending to create apprehensions of
coming trouble
In the third step, another agent ap-
proaches the employer and offers to
settle the dispute with the employees
which, if it exists at all, is the result
of the first agents offers. Of course,
such work costs money, it is explained
and at this point, if the employer be-
lieves the representations made to him
he is induced to make a substantial
payment whereupon the agitators are
called off and the Strike" is averted.
In some instances where the employer
refused to be easily persuaded, it was
found necessary actually to call the
strikes and then the agents reaped
their harvest for their services in
bringing about reconciliation"
! Overzealousness on the part Of some
of the agents of the "superdetective
agency" resulting in the threatened
destruction of local unions, has tenn
Iporarily embarrassed the parasites,
Mr. Dawson declared. A few months
ago, he said, he was approached by
one Of the leaders among the "concil-
iators" ia a Pittsburgh hotel and ask
ed if he would cooperate with them to
prevent the wipinp out of the machin-
lists union in that city wlich had vir-
tually been wrecked by the opera
tions of the agitators. Mr.. Dawson
said he was told that if the charter
of the union was withdrawn "it would
remove the source of the income of the
agency"
At the present time evidence in Mr..
Davison's possession shows that the
men operating the bleeding" system
are assuring certain employers thai
they will break up some of the larg-
est internationals in the American
Federation of Labor before May ] by
the system of boring from within" F."
In order to carry on this work they
are employing agents who obtain ad-
mission to local unions. For each
agent thus employed, an agency
draws SO day from the employers,
while the agents themselves are paid
81 day.
Employers throughout the country
are being informed of the manner in
which they have been swindled. Mr.
Dawson said, and in many instances
have admitted that they were victim
lied. One large employer of skilled
labor in Worcester, Mass, became sus-
picious of the tactics of some of the
men he had employed to settle diff
culties with his employers and con-
ferred with officials of the interna-

EDITOR is DISTRESSED

Bloomington, Ill,-The editor Of the

distressed over the failure of anti
trade union employers to agree upon
a term that win fool the people.
The editor has in mind recent

which time some employers declared
that they favor ehe open" shop, but
viii not employ a member of organic

act "of absolute stupidity" and he

arc unsavory facts which are just be- ginning to come home to us. , There are a number of reasons for this, some of which lave been discuss cd in previous Haskins letters. One of them is undoubtedly the fact that our statute books are cumbered with unen- forcable laws which bring all law into contempt and which tend to make of the policeman sort of moral censor instead of a criminal catcher. Another reason is that we have a heterogeneous and shifting population, which presents one of the most difficult police prob lems in the world.
 But one of the most important req sons is that We have always put up with indifferent police forces. They are largely dominated by politics and are usually run by men who have no training as police executives. but are chosen for reasons of political expe- diency.
 Furthermore, these men usually hold office only for brief periods, so thzG they have no opportunity to learn by experience the difficult profession which they approach without training Finally. there is little cooperation be- tween the various police departments and it is this lack of cooperation. of any national system for combating crime, which the proposed federal bu- reau would seek to remedy.

 The present reign of banditry has had at least one good effect in that it has awakened the American people to some extent to the fact that their po- lice systems are utterly inadequate That major crimes such as murder and robbery are many times as prevalent in the United States as in any of the principal European countries; that life and property are today less safe in some of our principal cities than they were in the far west in pioneer days,
