NEWARK OHIO FRIDAY OCTOBER Fl,
MT. VERNON LABOR MEETING
Large Delegation From Newark, Accompanied by
Band, Visits Knox County Capital
Friday Evening

known as the Fighting Friend of La
bor," saying that Mr.. Morgan's record
proved his friendly attitude towards
Labor, and advised working men and
farmers, whose interests are identical,
to cast their votes for him and send
him back to congress for second
term.
Victor Walk, president of the New
ark Trades and Labor Assembly, said
his remarks would be brief as time
was passing and the main speaker
of the evening would shortly follow.
He congratulated the Mt. Vernon boys
on the gallant fight they are putting
up, advising them to continue stead
fast to the cause, and prophesying
victory as result Of loyalty. He ad-
vised all to cut out party affliation
and vote for the man, especially the
man who by his acts had proved his
devotion to labor's cause. Such a man
was, he said, a candidate for congress
in this district for his second term,
and should receive the universal sup
port of Labor.
Charles Kegley, mayor of Mt. Yer
non cordially welcomed the Newark
visitors and turned over the keys of
the city, but what that got them was
nihil. His honor said he was with
the boys as he had always been a
working man until he got his present
job, and that was still worse.
The final speaker was Congressman
VIM. M. Morgan, who thanked his
friends for their unsolicited efforts
in his behalf, and this spontaneous
mark of confidence and esteem, and
was grateful for the opportunity to
meet so many friends, as contrary to
the custom of some of his colleagues
he had remained at his post of duty
in Washington instead of leaving and
travelling about his district looking
after his political fences. He called
attention to the great things accom-
plished through the aid of the COM
mon people, among the many being
the Workmens Compensation Law
and the Child Labor Act. He believed
the working man and farmer had in
terests in common and should pool is
sues and demand and receive what
was justly their due. Following his
Introductory remarks Mr.. Morgan
held the close attention of his hearers
while in mastery and concise man.
ner he discussed and explained the
great political and economic condi-
tions now confronting the American
people.
At the close of the meeting Mr..
Morgan was rendered an impromptu
reception, and received the congratu-
lations and best wishes of his friends
for his success at the coming election.
The parade up the principal street,
and around the square, headed by the
band and led by Pete Parker, Chief
of the Mt. Vernon police, attracted
much attention, and the band concert
Immediately preceding the meeting
drew a large, crowd many of which
helped swell the big hall which was
filled to it's capacity.

TRAP FAILED
DAUGHERTY CAN'T FOOL RAIL.
ROAD ATTORNEYS
The Attorney General and Injunction
Judges Are Ready to Let Injunc-
tiOn Get Lost"

Chicago-Attorneys for the rail-
road shop men have proved that At
torney General Daugherty is eligible
to the Ananias club, founded by a
former president.
The attorney general made solemn
pledge-in the public press--that he
would assist the shop men in their ap-
peal of the Wilkerson injunction.
When the appeal was started, the at
torney general refused to aid unless
the shop men agreed to accept as de-
positions the hundreds of affdavits he
presented to Judge Wilkerson in sup
port of his conspiracy charges.
A deposition is sworn statement,
before court officer, after the affant
is cross examined. The Daughertv
affdavits were largely made by fed
eral deputy marshals and detectives,
and are based wholly on hearsay evil
dence, which would be given no con-
sideration in deposition proceedings.
The purpose of the attorney general
was to get his wobbly affdavits out
of the way by having the other side
accept them as facts.
If the shop mems attorneys agreed
to treat the affidavits as dispositions,
this would remove the affidavits from
the controversy the shop men would
acknowledge that a conspiracy exists
and thereby sustain everything the
attorney general has claimed.
The Daugherty proposal was an inn
p,,Ionf nnl itnona11al hxy fho
desperate hope that the shop mems
attorneys would accept anytime to
get the case into higher court.
If the plan succeeded, then when the
shop men appeared before the federal
court of appeals there would be moth
ing for that court to consider except
the question whether it was a viola
tion of the Clayton law if the ad-
ministrative branch of the govern
ment secures an injunction against a
large body of strikers who have ac-
knowledged that they have entered
into conspiracy, as shown by the
attorney generals affidavits, and
which the strikers accept as state
ments of fact.
The shop mems attorneys were not
asleep and the Daugherty trap failed
Before the public, however, this petit
Jogging method of the attorney gen.
eral is unknown and his publicity
agents insist that he is willing to go
hand in hand with the shop men in a
friendly contest over the legality of
the Wilkerson injunction.
The shop mems, attorneys have
asked Judge Wilkerson to order the
attorney general to file bill of par
ticulars on his conspiracy claims.
Hundreds of affidavits allege various
crimes and the shop men want specific
charges rather than congratulations.
To date Judge Wilkerson has refused
1t is whispered that both the injunc-
tion Judge and the attorney general
would be willing to have the injunc-
tion "get lost" in the near future if
the precedent can be established that
an administration can secure an in
junction on the hearsay evidence of
detectives and stool pigeons.
No court of law would tolerate this
procedure but it is permissible under
government by injunction.
Newark leader. ([Newark, Ohio]) 1917-1946, 1922-10-27

Learning that a get-together meet
ing of organized men, under the
auspices of the Trades and Labor As
sembly was to be held in Mt. Vernon
Friday evening, number of their
Newark brethren decided to pay them
visit, and although the notice was
short, big delegation, together with
band composed of members of the
Citizens band who generously volun-
teered their services for the occasion,
left Newark at five o'clock for that
city.
After a parade the meeting was
called to order in the Trades and La
Dor Assembly hall, which held capa-
city audience, by J. F. Boyle, who
after brief address welcoming the
visitors, introduced James P. Wolfe,
secretary-treasurer of District No. 20
|. A. of M. Mr.. Wolfe spoke in an
encouraging manner regarding the
railroad outlook, saying among other
things that while the trouble was over
in Newark, there was lots of work
ahead before complete victory was
achieved. He advised the Pennsyl-
vania employees to maintain their or
ganization, stick together, keep up the
picket line, and they were bound to
win. Over 100 roads had already
signed the agreement, and more would
follow. He called attention to the
fact that the ballot was mighty
power, and if cast in an intelligent
manner, and for known and tried
friends of labor, would accomplish
wonders. "Throw aside politics." said
Mr.. Wolfe, "and vote for men who
have stood the test"
J. H. Sharritt, A. F. of L. organizer,
illustrated the power of organized
Labor by relating some of the trials
and tribulations experienced by the
central body in Newark, and how it
had triumphed over the enemies of
labor on numerous occasions, notably
in the open shop campaign launched
here year or so ago. He spoke Of
the loyalty of its members and or
ganized labor in general, but especial
ly that of William NJ Morgan, who
for years presided over the Council,
and by his activity and able counsel
was one of the prime factors in win
ming so many victories. He said that
Mr.. Morgan's reputation as being
above par on labor matters was more
than state wide, that he was third
vice president of the Ohio State Fed
Grafton of Labor and had been union
man all his life. His record in con-
gress proved his loyalty to the cause,
and all working men should lay aside
party prejudice and re-elect him to
the position he has so ably filled dur
ing the past two years.
David H. Murphy, member of the
o. r. c.. and representing that body
on the Legislative Committee, follow
ed along the same lines. He read a
letter from Congressman w. ]. Burke,
General Chairman of the o. R. c.,

WiIkerSOn Would
Pass the Buck

Chicago-On motion by the depart
ment of justice, Judge Wilkerson has
ruled that evidence on the shop mems
Injunction shall be referred to a
master in chancery. This permits the
Judge to "get out from UNDER" and
now he will only be called upon to
torneys for the shop men insist that
jury trial be permitted as the
charges involve violation of criminal
law.
The shopmen are waging their strike
with vigor and are not permitting the
administrations injunction to inter
fere with either their rights or their
legal activities. Agreements have
been reached on more than 112 roads.
These include the largest systems in
the country-Chicago, Milwaukee &
st. Paul, Baltimore & Ohio, Chicago
& Northwestern. New York Central,
Chesapeake & Ohio, Bostan & Albany,
Chicago Great Western, the Big Four,
the Monon route, Seaboard Air Line,
and Erie.
1t is announced that 16 railroads
have formed company unions" and
that these have signed agreements
with the roads. Or in other words,
these roads have signed agreements
with themselves.
In this list are the Pennsylvania,
Lehigh Valley, Southern Pacific, IL
linois Central Union Pacific and other
roads that have opposed the organized
shop men wherever possible.
The company "union" is a change
from former open opposition which is
now maintained through secret con-
troll of the union" while publicly
affecting an interest in the workers
welfare.
1t is stated that these roads have
agreed not to litigate if workers sur
render their right to strike. 1t will
be noticed that no individual rights of
the railroad managers are surrender
ed, even though they agree that their
corporations will no longer become in
volved in litigation with employees for
the very good reason that employees
have surrendered every right, there
by making it unnecessary for the
roads to litigate.

Montreal, Que.-More than $500
men are out of employment for an
indefinite period through the arbitrary
closing down of Canadian Pacific rail-
way coach shops from coast to coast

negotiate permanent wage scale

ways are concerned.
