The Theatre Illustrs. which

the gate Of Nesle. Its members,
blaming their ill-success on the
fact that their stage was too far
from the bourgeois quarters. rent
ed another much nearer, by the
gate Of st. Paul, at the sign Of the
Black Cross.
Bad luck followed them there.
In an empty theatre the company

LEGISLATION URGED

Locomotive Engineers See

Court Ruling.
By the Associa. ted Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CLEVELAND. June 28.-Organized
labor should answer recent decisions
OF the Supreme Court with a campaign
to secure the enactment of law which
will protect it from suits for damages
by employers instead Of denouncing
the laws. the Brotherhood of Locomo-
tive Engineers stated In bulletin is
sued today.
The Coronado decision holding that
labor unions are suable for damages
Is challenge to the workers to seek
legislative protection for their unions
similar to that given labor ,organiza-
tions in Great Britain, the bulletin
contends.
THE Coronado decision opens wide
gateway for all sorts of unwarranted
attacks upon labor organizations"
states the bulletin.
1t invites unscrupulous employers
engaged in a lockout or strike to pro-
woke damage to their property. as the
plaintiffs in this case did, and then tie
up the funds of the labor union by a
suit for damages against the union.
Chief Justice Taft cites numerous
congressional enactments expressly ex-
emptfng labor unions from excise taxes,
IN order to draw the deduction that
such recognition of the legality Of
unions also implies that they may be
sued and their funds attached in claims
arising from acts committed by their
members Yet this comparison fails
entirely when applied to common law
partnerships and other such organiza-
tions which are admittedly legal, but
which are not suable for the wrongful
acts of their Individual members.
Such decisions as the Coronado case
are doing more to discredit the law and
the courts in the eyes Of the working
people than all the so-called radical
agitators In the country"
