LABOR WANTS BOOKS BOUGHT
FROM UNION PUBLISHERS
(My Max Abernethy).

my Max Abernethy).
Raleigh, Jan. 26.-Organized la
bor is reported dissatisfied with the
recommendations of the State Text
Book Commission for books to be
used in the elementary grades for the
next four years.
The complaint of the union forces
is based upon that part of the COM
missions report which gave non
union book publishers reference over
the union company, one of the latter
being the John w. Winston Company
of Philadelphia. It is being charged
that the text book commission side
tracked readers which some of the
cepted in their stead similar books
published by non-union companies.
The books, of course, have not yet
been adopted but merely recommend
edeby the commission.
Complaint of the organized labor
forces is in the nature of an appeal
from the commission to the Council
of State which meets February 6 to
make the adoption. But the books
the council will select must be taken
from the list submitted by the text
book commission. The Council of
State is not bound by the suggestions
which gives the non-union publishers
precedence over the union companies,
however.
Letters of protest will be sent by
some of the labor leaders to members

A QUESTIONABLE is now being mail
ed out by Secretary A. T. Allen to
all members of the North Carolina
Teachers Assembly asking them to
give their preference on three pos
sible dates for the 1922 meeting of
the assembly
The dates suggested are as follows:
October 1927; November 29-De-
cember 1; December 1928. The first
date comes about one month earlier
than previous meetings, while the
second is the old Thanksgiving week
date on which all of the assembly's
meetings have been held in the past.
The third date comes in the Christ
mas holidays.
A majority vote will determine the
1922 meeting date.
