LABOR ASSAILS
LAWS, COURTS
Convention Opens, Declar-
ing Fight Is for Existence
of Unions
CONGRESS ALSO
is CRITICIZED

CINCINNATI, June 1S.-Facinl
a fight that leaders of organized
labor regard as one for the exist
ence of unions, the American Fed
Grafton here yesterday opened lis
forty-second annual convention
which was marked by the presenta-
ton of many issues that are to be
considered during the next two
weeks, and a speech by Samuel
Gompers president, declaring I'VE do
not fool ourselves into any fancied
security" The issues were brought
before the delegates by the report
of the federations Executive
Council.
I'VE are not in a mood" said Mr..
Gompers. ito have those rights and
privileges guaranteed to us by our
Constitution taken from us by any
subtle reasoning or assumption of
power. no matter whence it ema-

That declaration was greeted with
applause, as was also his statement
that organized labor would go on
ward and forward more determined
than ever that there shall not be
imposed upon our brow, upon our
backs. the type of the man with
the hoe
Mr.. Gompers declared organized
labor only asked employers to meet
with the union leaders In confer
ences for the settlement of any dis
putes, but he said that a genuine
conference was impossible unless
both sides stand on an equal foot I
ing. The open shop he added, is /
not the result of conferences.
Mr.. Gompers concluded with a
reference TO the Disarmament Con-
ference, asserting II made a begin
ming toward abolishing war and that
labor throughout the world made
the greatest contribution toward
that purpose"
The convention session also was
marked by presentation of a report
by Santiago Iglesias. president of
he Free Federation of Workers of
Porto Rico. indorsing the Admins
ration OF z. Mont Rely as Gov
srnor of Porto Rico Iglesias de-
,lared that Governor Reilly had

Porto Rico.

vention, II also showed the total

1T is with no little satisfaction In
view Of these circumstances, the re-
port says. that we are able to lay
before this convention a report or

Dull for us because everybody's

One man said that four times as

is brought in during December for
loans. But in those shops that have
other things besides clothing on
whichto loan money, and stress the

unusually good this year.

All the Christmas stories aren't
found In the gay shop windows. the
crowded stores. the homes full of
light and life and color and happy
laughter. the flower-filled churches
and their beautiful music, nor yet in
the bare little homes that are gar

Empty Stocking Fund. The pawn
shops Of Tulsa are rich in Christmas
tales
One doesn't need to read Tolstoi to
know about the man who took off
his own coat to give 1t to some poor
man who needed IL worse than he
did. Go to the pawshops and find
the living stories written there. To
give when giving means parting with
ones overcoat. ones cherished
watch, a wedding ring perhaps
that is real giving, There are gray
threads of heartaches and tears of
renuuciation and sacrifice woven in
to the gay invisible cloth of Christ
mas, the cloth that is made in the
pawnshops.
Folks have spent all the money
they can scrape together for Christ
