PRESS STRIKE LEADER BRINGS
 SUIT ON CARD

New York, Dec. I5.-David Simons, head of the Web Pressmen's Union when the outlaw strike was called in October, is going in the Supreme Court to compel George L. Berry and other directors ot the Interna- tional Pressmen's Union to furnish him with a membership card so that he may resume work.
 The charter of Pressmen's Local 25 was revoked after the strike was called on the ground that the walk out was illegal and in violation of the agreement with the parent body. Since that time Simons says he has been unable to obtain employment. Previous to that time he was fore man of the press room of the Brook Iyn Times and was earning $I25 a week
 Simons had succeeded in obtaining an order from Justice Cohalan re- quiring Major Berry and others to show cause why mandamus should not be issued compelling them to take him back as a bonafde member of the union, and the argument on the motion came before Justice Burr. Major Berry was represented by Leo J. Rosett of ITS Broadway, who told the court that the International Union was voluntary unincorporated asso- ciation and cited many court opinions showing that mandamus could not be issued against such an organiza- tion
 Mr Rosett also asked the court for additional time to prepare an answer, as he said he knew nothing of the contents of the Simons application and had received no notice that 1t was to be submitted He called attention to the fact that the bylaws of the international union provided for the expulsion of subordinate union and the suspension or canncellatio of the cards of the members thereof for violation of the laws of the body and that the decision of the board of di- rectors was binding until set aside by convention
 Furthermore, he said, Simons had already had a full, fair and impar- tial hearing at meeting at the Waldorf-Astoria last Friday upon the request. Both Simons and his law yer were present, Rosett said, and were given an opportunity to make any statement they desired. The di- rectors then went into executive ses- sion, but have not yet published their decision.
 Sirnons says in his application, that he is the only member of Local 25 who has not yet received his mem bership card and he believes the req son, for withholding 1t was that he was the spokesman of the local dur ing the strike. He says he is "de- pendent for a livelihood upon his earnings as a pressman and cannot obtain employment until the card is issued"

The Judicial Oligarchy, Again

Fortunately the judicial oli- garchy, which in Fascist style, has taken the government into its own hands, often extends it's usurped power beyond the American labor movement.
 Mere abuses of the laws of the land, such as gagging the labor leaders and labor pfess; the fragrant use of injunc- tions to prevent workers from carrying out their constitu- tiona1 rights and other auto cratic court procedure against organized workers do not raise the public's ire.
 But when a politicians mouth is closed by decree from court and the politician is thrown into jail-THEN-the newspapers loudly cry for the right of "free speech"
 Judge Julius M. Mayer of the Federal District Court of New York gave 6o-day sentence to Comptroller Charles L. Craig of New York City for criticising the judges conduct in a receiv- ership proceeding in which the people of New York had a vital interest.
The Connecticut labor news., 1923-12-15

The tyrannical power of our judicial autocracy has grown to such an extent that 1t has be- come the executive and 1egisla- tive branches of our government as well as the judicial branch the latter being the only one for which 1t was originally in tended.
 Judge-made laws are becom- ing so numerous by decisions of the courts that Congress may as well lock up shop" and go home. The little oligarchy of judges-mostly corporation law yers-has become so powerful and has violated the spirit of our institutions so often that they not only make laws but become the judge. jury and exc cutioner.
 The people of the country should force a showdown. We will have to choose between government of few appointed job holders and a government of representatives elected by the people. Our bet is that the voters will return to the good old-fashioned American govern men founded by our forefath- CTS.

To Members and Friends of Organ
 ized Labor,
 Greetings:
 During the Christmas holidays many people buy cigars to present to friends. Because these are re- ceived with seeming pleasure, folks assume that they have given just what was wanted and fonly believe that their friends will hderive muc pleasure and solace from smoking their Christmas cigars Unfortunate ly, gift cigars disappoint or peeve their recipients often than they please or satisfy.
 Too often dealers stock up for the Christmas rush with cheap non-union cigars and sell them at prohteer prices to those who do not know cigar. values or quality. Consequent ly, each Christmas, men are present ed with cigars poorly made and about as fragrant as a piece of rope. This is to be regretted, for everyone mak- ing Christmas gift does so in an ticipation of giving the recipient much pleasure. We therefore advise those intending;to purchase cigars to exercise discretion when doing SO

 Brazil Appoints Labor Council l. Brazil has taken a forward step by the appointment of National Labor Council, which held it's formal opening. recently. The council con sists of I2 members nominated by the President of the Republic, viz, two workers and two employers rep jresentatives, two, officials of the Min istry of Agriculture, Industry and Commerce and six specialists in la bor questions. The questions to be dealt with by the Council will include hours of work, wages, collective agreements, cancellation and arbitra- ton, protection of women and young persons, apprenticeship and technical education, industrial accidents, social insurance, pensions and agricultural credit.
 At the opening of the Council the secretary general, MT. Bandeira de Mella, said:

Accordingly, as a member of the International Labor Organization, 1t is her duty to do her part for the improvement of the lot of the work CTS and, in particular, to define her attitude with regard to the decisions of the International Labor Confer ence.

Those presenting cigars can be certain that their gift will be appre- ciated and enjoyed if they accept only those packed in boxes bearing the Blue Label of the Cigar Makers Union. This is a guarantee that they are Hand-Made, Union-Made and of high quality It should also be re- membered that the price of Union Made cigars is no more than that charged for inferior non-union prod ucts that dealers often try to work off because of the larger profit gained.
 Therefore to avoid disappointing your friends, and to be sure that your gift of cigars will be enjoyed and appreciated, demand cigars that bear the Blue Label; they are always worth the price you are asked to pay and made under fair conditions. Look for the Blue Label on the box.
 Thanking you for your co-opera- ton in this matter and with best wishes, for Merry Christmas, we remain
 Fraternally yours,

 The International Labor Organiza- ,ion is still growing, two new mem bers, Ireland and Ethiopia, having been added in recent months.
 Both of these countries were ad- mitted to the League of Nations dur ing the fourth assembly, and auto matically became members of the In ternational Labor Organization, in accordance with the Treaty of Yer cailles.
 ThisAis one of the peculiar annals of the treaty, in that members of the League of Nations must be members of the International Labor Organiza- ton, but members of the Labor Or ganization are not necessarily mem bers of the league. The Interna- tional Labor Organization has a larger membership than that of the league.
