WOLL TO ORGANIZE
BUREAU TO FURNISH
LEGAL INFORMATION

BY International Labor News Service,
Washington d. c., Jan. 25.-The
establishment of legal information
bureau, to be directed by Vice Presi-
dent Matthew Vol, under the super
vision of President Gompers and the
Executive Council of the American
Federation of Labor has been an
nounced in a communication to the
officers OF the trade union movement,
signed by President Gompers.
Establishment of this bureau was
authorized by the last convention of
the American Federation of Labor
and, in accordance with the conven-
ton action, its purposes and func-
tons are to be confined 10 the col
lating of laws and judicial decisions
on the rights of labor and the en-
listment of voluntary assistance and
cooperation by attorneys friendly to
labor and experienced in industrial
litigation.

American Federation of Labor does
not intend and cannot possibly under
take to provide legal counsel to affil-
lditu uiltoHS III NDdAGNtt
they may become involved or which
may be thrust upon them. Ii is the
purpose of this bureau to collect and
collate all laws and judicial decis-
ions relating to the rights of labor as
well as to prepare briefs on the
fundamental and more important is
sues involved in labor litigation. II
is the further intent to furnish af-
fliated unions and their attorneys
such legal information as has been
collected and collated from time to
time and by that procedure prove
helpful in properly and effectively de-
Tending the workers rights before the
courts.
"This bureau, If it is to function
properly and adequately, must receive
the encouragement and support OF all
affiliated unions and of their re-
spectve attorneys
The communication further an
nounces that the bureau will be or
ganized on a working basis at the
earliest possible moment. Its offices
will be in the American Federation
Of Labor in this city.

an injunction against shop strikers IN
