Columbia College
Building To Be Fair

Rev. Holte, in charge of the CO.
lumbia College, which is now a
children's home, wishes to be fair
with organized labor. Mr.. Holte
came before the Building Trades
Council Friday evening asking that
he may use union labor to do some
necessary work on the building. 1t
will be remembered that Mr.. Bog
stad, who had charge of the remod-
cling of the building last spring,
refused recoknize the unions having
jurisdiction over the work and as
a result was placed unfair by the
B. T. C. Mr.. Bogstad has left
Everett, and has also been removed
from any connection with the man
agement of the college building.
Mr. Holte, who is in charge
states that in the future he will
employ union help. The B. T. c..
after hearing Mr.. Hotties state
ment, voted to allow the work to
proceed and also recommended that
the carpenters remove the building
from the unfair list.
Mr.. Holte also invites organized
labor to call and inspect the home.

CO-OP. i. BUILDING
HELPS WORKERS
TO OWN HOMES

One of the most significant re
suits of the present housing short
age in this country has been the
growth of cooperative building and
loan associations and building guilds.
With the growing unwillingness Of
individuals and banks to invest in
mortgages, because such loans do
not give big profits in time of eX-
panding trade, the cooperative
building and loan associations of the
country are more and more meet
ing the needs Of the people in pro-
yiding the financial where withal to
relieve the worst housing pinch
this country has even known.
An outstanding example of this
movement of workers to put their
capital to work where it will do the
most good for the community is the
st. Paul, Mimi, Building and Loan
Association. Organized in March,
1921 by the Trades and Labor As
sembly of St. Paul, this association
has proved highly successful, paying
512 per cent interest to it's mem
bers ever since it started Its funds
are all invested in first mortgages
on new homes, which are being paid
back at the rate of 1 per cent per
month or more. Operating for the
benefit of the public, without
thought of private profit, this asso-
citation has truly lived up to its
motto of "Service, not profit" and
at the same time has made good
financially.
To eliminate the waste of time,
red tape, and expense which usually
exists between the contractor and
the money lender in the building
projects. the st. Paul Building and
Loan Association is working closely
with the cooperative Peoples Con-
struction Company recently organ
lied by the Building Trades Unions
of the city to build homes for the
workers at cost, thus saving the fat
profit of the realty speculator and
building contractor. Working in the
same office, these two organizations
are convincing the people of St
Paul that there is soundness as we'll
as wisdom in the cooperative financ-
ing and building of homes.

CIVIL LIBERTIES UNION ENLISTS
LAWYERS TO FIGHT DAUGHERTY GAG

An appeal to over 800 lawyers
associated with the American Civil
Liberties Union to take free of
charge any and all cases arising
under the clauses of the injunction
against the railway shopmen which
restrict freedom of speech, press
and assembly. was sent out recent
ly by the officers of that organi-
cation. The Union has already Of
fered aid directly to each of the
persons so far arrested under these
clauses, and will supply bail, defense
funds and organized support wher-
ever practicable.
The communication of the Union
to the attorneys throughout the
country associated with it, reads:
"This organization has offered to
the Railway Employees Department
of the American Federation of La
Dor our cooperation in free speech
cases arising under the injunction
secured by Attorney General Daugh-
erty in the federal court of Chicago
against the striking railway shop
men. That injunction, as you know,
forbids the exercise of the ordi-
nary rights of free speech, free
press and freedom of assemblage in
connection with the present strike.
"This injunction is the most
sweeping denial of the elementary
rights of citizens which has been
secured by any governmental agen-
cy in these years of repressive
measures since the war 1t is the
obligation of all of us who are COM
mitted to the principle of free
speech to combat it in every way
we can. There is not much pros
pect of saving from Jail any man
who violates it. but there is an op-
portunity in the hearings of such
case to call public attention effec-
lively to the issues involved.
"On that score, we ask every at
torney associated with this work to
take free of charge or four ex-
penses only, as a matter of public
service. any local case of member
of the railway shopmen's unions or
any sympathizers arrested for vio-
lation of the free speech and free
assemblage clauses of the injunc-
ton. The preparation of such a
case will require comparatively lit
tie time and the public service rem
dered may be very considerable.
eve have invited the railway
shopmen to get in touch with us
by wire or letter in the case of any
man so arrested, and we have
pledged the aid of our friends in
the legal profession to respond. if
their other obligations permit. We
ask each of you, if such a call comes
to YOU, to advise us promptly OF
your willingness to take the case.
We will give you the names of 9TH
er persons in your community who
