COURTS HAVE
PROPERTY BIAS:
UNFAIR TO LABOR

New Yark.-~Wken Il Genes - a
question d the interests between en-
ployer ana workmen. insofar - their
relations are concerned. the courts are
most unfair said President Comp
erS,, teStifying before the Lockwood
building committee.
For more than two hours Samuel
Jntermyer. 81 tie counsel fer the
committee. called On his wide expar-
fence As = lawyer aai eroSs-eSaaliner.
% drive the trade anioniSt as he has
done 10 scores and scores of persons
IN all walks OF life. But he attorney
was repeatedly forced back y the
quick tetert and peapery reparsee OF
the trade union executive.
In regulation lawyer style. and
with eyes ruled skvward, Mr.. Tn
sermyer took exception to reference
10 the courts, but the unionist refused
70 break ground. When asked II his
lifelong connection with the labor
movement may not have perverted
his view on that subject" President
Gompers replied:
mo. think | can always differ
entiate between my sympathies and
my judgment. need not depend up
on my own Judgment and knowledge,
upon which I might with entire con-
fidence, but could refer you 10 no
less a person than 3 former president
of the United States and present chief
justice Of the United States. the Hon.
William Howard Taft, aud his critic
isms of the opportunities for justice
for the poor; or to former Senator
Elihu Root in his recent address be-
fore the American bar association, or
TO the bulletin recently issued by the
Carnegie foundation upon the subject
of Justice and the Poor
"lou think you have got n better
job than being lawyer :" queried
Mr.. untermyer.
mo, it satisfies my conscience bet
ter" said the labor executive.
President Gompers insisted that the
expanding intelligence of workers,
rather than court interference. would
remedy wrongs on the part of any
union. The trade unionist said the
growth of intelligence cured many a
wrong and would rectify others.
GAS seer and philosopher can
you give us any idea how long that
is likely to be?s was the sarcastic
query of the lawyer.
The unionist's eyes snapped as he
quietly replied: Probably the first of
January. 1923, II it doesn't rain"
The audience laughed. the chairman
pounded for order and the attorney
declared that he failed to see the APP
plication of the answer"
"And so do | of the question:" said
the unionist.
President Gompers declared that
from the standpoint Of principle the
limiting of membership in trade
union Is fundamentally wrong, but
thta from practical standpoint self
protection and self-preservation must
be served.
"The men who for years have or
ganized, contributed their dues have
borne sacrifices during strikes or
other contentious and lockouts, and
have made conditions of the work of
labor in that industry better, and con-
stantly better, are those who by right
have the first cali to the job rather
than the man who has failed to do
his duty to become a member " the
union" he said.

FEDERAL COURT
GAGS RAILWAY
LABOR BOARD

Chicago.-Federal Judge Page has
upheld an injunction seeared against
the railroad labor board by the
Pennsylvania railroad wherein the
board is restrained from making pub.
lie its censure because the railroad
violated the boards order.
The courts refusal 10 dismiss the
injunction. originally issued by Fed.
erM Judge Landis, has dumbfounded
the board which finds itself gagged
when it attempts to apply the only
weapon congress armed IL with--puh-
lieity.
Under the Cummins-Esch law the
board is given wide powers to initiate
measures in the event that transpor-
tation is liable to be interfered with.
Last year when the Pennsylvania
was establishing its company union,
organized shop men ON that system
presented proof to the board that
they were debarred from voting. The
railroad was ordered 10 hold n new
election, but ignored the order. The
board then prepared n censure, but
before the document could be made
public the railroad secured an order
from Federal Judge lands which en-.
Joined the beard from in any manner
indicating that the railroad refused
to accept an award by the board.

ever a better day in the lives and
homes of the toilers; to defend and
maintain by every honorable means
in our power the right to organize

ment, for the exercise of our normal
and constitutional activities to pro-
tect and promote the rights and in
terests Of the workers; to assert at
any risk the equal rights before the
law of all workers with all other eiti-
zens; to aid our fellow-workers
against the effort to entangle the
workers in the meshes of litigation
before the courts in the several
states; to restore and make effective
in our every day lives the principle
declared in the law of our Republic
1.-THE Clayton law), THAT the labor
of human being is not commodity
or article OF commerce." TO arouse our
fellow workers and fellow-citizens to
the danger which threatens to curb
