Big Profits Recall
Courts Picket Ban

New York-A net profit of $685.
706 for the first nine months of 1924,
after all charges and federal taxes
have been met, is reported by the
American steel foundries.
This corporation was connected
with a supreme court decision, three
years ago, that picketing shall be un-
der control of the judiciary and that
as a general rule one picket at each
factory gate shall be sufficient. Low
er courts have used this decision in
strikes where workers swarm four
and five abreast out of factories and
work shops.
Employees at the steel foundries
plant at Granite City, ILL.,, refused to
accept a wage cut several years ago
and were enjoined from picketing by
a federal district court. They appeal
ed on the ground that the Clayton
law recognizes the right to picket.
Chief Justice Taft made the one-pick-
ct decision and laid down the princi-
pie that picketing shall be under the
jurisdiction of the courts.
This decision, however, has un-
doubtedly been weakened by the su-
preme courts recent decision that
strikers charged with criminal con-
tempt are entitled to trial by jury.

ACCIDENT PREVENTION
STARTED BY LABOR

CHICAGO-"It i. encouraging to
note that traction companies
of late are taking accident preven-
tion promotion more seriously
than heretofore" says Editor
Bland of the Union Leader, pub
lished by the Amalgamated Asso-
citation of Street and Electric Rail-
way Employees.
"There was a time when this
movement consisted mostly of
chatter at company dinners, des-
ignated only for public consump-
tion through the press. The eco
nomic side of this problem, how
ever, has forced practical and
earnest effort upon the part of the
companies and good results are
now being obtained.
"It is quite amusing to old trade
unionists to observe the lack of un-
derstanding of some of the men
now interested in accident preven-
ton promotion of the pioneer work
done in this field, and of the dis
regard of it's necessity by the COM
panies in the old days. To hear
some of these fellows talk, this
kind of promotion would appear to
be new thing, for which the
companies are now taking great
credit. Well, it is comparative
ly new thing-to the companies
and we are glad that they have
seen the light.
"The trade union, if you please,
was the pioneer in accident preven-
ton promotion. In the mine, the
shop, the factory, on the railroad,
and in every branch of industry
where trade unionism has pre-
vailed, there the constant efforts
of the unions have been to have
safeguards that would prevent ac-
cidents.
"Did the old-time employers re-
spond? They did-when they were
forced to, through costly and Bit
ter strikes and legislative enact
ment."
