WAGE DECISION OF
COURT CRITICIZED

WASHINGTON, May 24.-The Su-
preme Court was unsparingly criti-
cised at conference called by the
Women's National Trade Union
league to consider the Supreme
Courts annulment of the District of
Columbia Womens minimum wage
law.
President Gompers declared that it
is the purpose of the American Fed
Grafton Of Labor to see that the will of
the people, as expressed by their bal
lot shall be the law OF the land. He
said the greatest wrong in the Su-
preme Courts decision was the denial
of the principle Congress inserted in
the Clayton law-that labor is not a
commodity nor an article OF com
merce. The court ignored this decla-
ration, said President Gompers, and
likened women's labor to the selling
OF shin bone for soup. The trade
unionist said the Supreme Court of
the United States. Is .an autocratic
and dominating agency of our govern
ment," and he urged that its usurpa-
tiOn be ended By amendment to the
Constitution or BY other Congression-
al action.
Other speakers included Vice Presi-
dent Woll. DR.. John A. Ryan OF the
social action department National
Catholic Welfare council: President
Maud Swartz of the Women's Ma
tional Trade Union league. and Miss
Mary Anderson, director of the Fed
eral Women's Bureau.
1t was reported that since the wom-
ems wage law has been annulled, the
wages of women have been reduced
by hotels and department stores.

MERCHANT TAILORS

established. undoubtedly many OF the
younger Americans would learn this
trade as claimed by the tailors' repre-
sentative when appearing before the
committee on emigration.
The plea OF the Merchant Tailors'
association was presented by law
yer representing the United States
Chamber Of Commerce.
He claimed a shortage of mechanics
in all lines of production, especially
clothing.
He stated the merchant tailors
wanted immigration opened to first
class journeymen tailors, as he claim
ed American boys would not learn the
trade, therefore they had to depend
upon Europe to supply mechanics.
Congressman Johnson, as chairman
of the immigration committee, asked:
What are the reasons the American
boys will not learn the trader"
Answer-We believe the laws gov
erning education partially responsible
in that they are too strict. In my
opinion boys should be permitted to
leave school at the age of 13 or IA
years and put to a trade, for when
boy gets a fair education ne will re-
fuse to learn a trade.

ORGANIZE CENTRAL
COUNCIL AT KELSO
(state Federatlon uIIetln.l

Organizer C. o. Young of the Am
erican Federation of Labor is install
ing a new Central Labor Council at
Kelso, Wash, Thursday night of this
week. The organization of the new
council is the outgrowth of the estab-
lishment in recent weeks Of local un-
ions of culinary workers, carpenters,
building laborers, BARRIERS, and of lo-
cal unions in all of the building trades
lines. Organizer Young has spent
considerable time in recent weeks at
Kelso in conjunction with several in
ternational representatives., conducting
a campaign of organization among all
of the workers of that vicinity which
has met with great deal of sue cess.
The city of Kelso has been favored
with quite a building boom in recent
months, and this, coupled with the
construction Of the new town OF
Longview, which Immediately ad-
joins Kelso, has created strong Ia
Dor demand. However, at Longview q
great deal Of difficulty is anticipated
due to the fact that the property ia
owned by the Long Bell Lumber COM
pany, which has proven itself one OF
the most hostile concerns to organ
lied labor in all Of the other states
in which II has operated before COM
ing to Washington. however, outside
contractors in most instances are
dealing with the labor organizations
and paying the union scale.
