were somewhat disappointed at the
playing of the "Seasiders," because of

gave poor exhibition of base ball.

LABOR NEWS -. SUPREME C----- The Supreme Court of the United States has just handed down two de- cisions of great moment to the labor movement After hard work, Labor was successful in having enacted into law the Clayton Anti Trust Act, and in that law, there is section which states that no federal court shall deny trial by jury to strikers adjudged guilty of contempt for the violation of an injunc- ton issued during labor dispute. In the case of Sandefud vs. Canoe Creek Coal Go, the Cirouit Judge certified this question to the Supreme Court for de cision as to the constitutionality of this section With 1t was considered a case of railroad strikers who had been de nied a jury trial upon being judged III contempt after violating an injunction. Holding that the status of employer and employee is not destroyed by strike, the Supreme Court in decision handed down on Monday October 20, 1924, held IuaI IIIlS SSCuOu O1 IiC \idy loi fASI was constitutional and that the workers were entitled to trial by jury. This IS blow at the encroaching power of the judiciary and will go far to reestablish- ing faith in the government No longer will federal judge be judge, accusser and executioner, in these cases at least. And the onward march of labor will be heartened to secure much the same sort of law in the several states. Oklahoma and Massachusetts, among others have had law of this kind, and it has been declared unconstitutional as being an Gnwarranted invasion upon the inherent powers of the judiciary Wisconsin now has law of this character, and 1t is

 PROSECUTOR AND JURY AT SAME TIME

reasonable to assume that other states will hasten to secure the same for the workers.
 It is questionable if these decisions would have been decided as they were, unless the question of the unwarranted power of our courts had been fully pre- sented to the people and sentiment crys- talized against it. It has been said that the Supreme Court follows the elections and this. is we'll demonstrated in this instance. For the information of our movement, the Legal Information Bu- reau is transmitting in full the decisions of such great moment to the toilers of our country. ..
 MT. Justice Sutherland delivered the opinion of the Court
 These cases were argued together and will be disposed of i'd one opinion. The principal question presented in the Mi chaeison case, and the sole question m the Sandefur case, is whether the pro vision of the Clayton Act of October Is, 1914, C. ,323, 38 Stat. 738, 73o, paras. 21, P, requiring a jury trial in certain specified kinds of contempt is constitu- tional Subordinate questions pre- sented in the Michaelson case are: (a) Whether petitioners were, or whether It is necessary that they should be "em- ployees" within the meaning of the Act, Para. 20; (b) whether the acts alleged to constitute the contempt were also criminal offenses under the statutes of the United States or of the States where committed (c) whether the provisions for jury is mandatory or permisslve.
 The petitioners in the Nicholson case, were striking employees of the Chicago, St. Paul. Minneapolis & Omaha Railway Company, and, with others, were pro- ceeded against by bill in equity for com- bining and conspiring to interfere with commerce by picketing and the use of force and violence, etc. After a hearing, preliminary injunction was granted Subsequently, proceedings in contempt were instituted in the District Court, charging petitioners with sundry violations of the injunction; and rule to show cause was issued. Upon the answer and return to the rule, petition CTS applied for a jury trial under Sec

cases) are the same Contempts of the kind within the terms of the stat ute partake of the nature of crimes III all esentia1 particulars So truly are they crimes that 1t seems to be proved that in the early law they were punished only by the usual crinl- inal procedure, and that, at least in England, 1t seems that they still may be and preferably are, tried in that way
 Facts Are Well Known.
 These crimes consist of violations of injunctions which are decrees issued by judges customarily abrogating es- sentlal guarantees of the United States Constitution The Supreme Courts humor-we can scarcely be- lieve the court is merely naiye-is found in its statement that 1t seems to be proved that in the early law and today in England, such crimes are punished only by the usual criminal procedure It does not, as matter of fact, merely seem so. It is and the fact that 1t sis SO has been overlooked by the Supreme Court for so many years is an American judi cial scandal that has found all too belated remedy.
 "The facts about the early proceed ure and about the procedure in Eng fish law are too well known to call for any seems to be- in this decision. The power of equity courts to issue injunctions IS the legitimate and direct descendant of the autocratic power Of kings and the lineage is unnlistakably traceab1e.
 Great Victory Won.
 England has shorn away that power from both kings and judges, but American courts, presided over so generally by corporation trained judges, found a way of reviving and en1arging 1t until the abuse of the power to issue injunctions and punish their violation became nothing less than a national judicial scandal bring ing the whole court system into dis repute that no judicial system can long withstand if it is to retain its dignity and authority and the conf dence of the people in its inpartiality.
 "A great victory has been won by the tactfu1 admission of the court that the judges seem to have been on the wrong track.
 "Is it possible that the Supreme Court has heard of the political cam paign to reform the courts usurpation of power?"

DECISION ON INJUNCTIONS BLOW AT COURT TYRANNY,
 SAMUEL GOMPERS THINKS

Washington, D. C., Nov 8-"The By International Labor News Service. Supreme Court has taken a long step ahead in its decision that strikers charged with violating injunctions are entitled to jury trial" said President Samuel Gompers, of the American Federation of Labor, in commenting on the most recent labor decision of the nations highest court. "Unques- tionably the court IS mindful of the trend of the times and recognizes i'll some degree that the growing ten dency of the courts to assume auto cratic powers must be curbed if the whole court system Is not to be i'm paired. Thi decision is constructive and progressive.
 We must not, however, delude our selves into the belief that this decision cures all of the evils of the judiciary The court has sustained one of the most important provisions of the Clay ton act, which was passed by Congress at the insistence of the American Fed eration of Labor and signed by Presi- dent Wilson who then warned judges that the act wa instended to teach them to safeguard human liberties
 Injunction Must Go
 Tt may well be that this decision marks a great turning point in Amer ican court procedure. A great cloak of autocratic power is shorn away. Strikers charged with breaking judge made law are entitled to jury trials. They can no longer be put in jail at the whirn of the judge who made the law.
 But the injunction remains. It may still be issued in labor disputes where no such injunction would lie if there were no labor dispute in prog ress The injunction itself, as used in labor dispute, must go before the Constitution Is fully and finally vindi cated an dmade supreme in our court system.
 Court Shows Sense of Humor.
 T can not fail to call attention to. what seems to me to be the sense of humor possessed by the Supreme Court. The decision contains this paragraph:
 "'The fundamental characteristic of both (crininal contempt and criminal

vs United States, 4 Wall. 435, 44o-7.
 The Sandefur case IS here on certif- cate requesting the instruction of this Court upon the following question o5 law;
 Do those provisions of Section 22 of the Clayton Act which require con- viction upon jury trial as condition precedent to punishment for contempt, upon demand for jury trial in the case specified, impose a valid restriction upon the inherent judicial power of the United States District Courts ?"
 The facts state in the certificate bring the case within the principle of what has already been said, and the question must be answered in- the affirmative.
 Nos. 7O8 reversed and remanded to the District Court for further proceed ings in conformity with this opinion.
 No 679, answer: Yes.

IMMIGRATION TO PALESTINE

The total number of immigrants to Palestine, according to information re- ceived by the International Labor Office was 7,991 in 1925, as compared with SIPS in 1922. About two-thirds of the immigrants come from Poland, the Ukraine and Russia A considerable number also come from Asia and Africa amounting to about 2,O00 per sons for the period September 1922 to September 1923.
 The majority of all the immigrants consists of handcraftsmen and skilled workers, and most of them have found employment at their own trades.
