Coolidge Campaign Head
In Illinois Aids Legal
Assault on Union Labor

BY International Labor News Service.
Washington, D. C.-Roy 0. West,
secretary of the republican national
committee and manager of the Cool
idge campaign in Illinois, was today
connected by the American Fedora
tion of Labor with one of the most
recent labor injunctions.
Mr.. West is a member of the firm
of West and Eckhardt, Chicago law
yers. This firm represented the
Western Union Telegraph Company
in an application for an injunction
against five local unions in Chicago.
The application was made before
Judge James H. Wilkerson, who
granted the famous Daugherty in
junction against the railroad shop
trades. The writ asked for by West
and Eckhardt was granted and the
order now stands against the local
unions which are on strike against
the Western Union.
Workers Forbidden to Use
Persuasion
The injunction contains the custo.
mary drastic provisions, including g
provision restraining the members Of
the unions from any effort to "induce
by persuasion" employees of the West
ern Union to cease work, and thus as
sist the unions to win the strike.
Union enjoined include on loca
union each belonging to the electri
clans, plasterers, bricklayers, plumb
ers and the elevator constructors, an
three local unions belonging to tn
bridge and structural workers.

West Follows in Daugherty's
Footsteps


"We expect such things" said Sec
retary Frank Morrison. "There is
nothing in the republican platform
which makes it inconsistent for Mr..
West, the secretary of the national
republican committee, to follow in the
footsteps of former Attorney General
Harry Daugherty in attempting to
prevent wage earners from exercising
their lawful rights.
"The republican party does not even
pretend to oppose the injunction.
Mr. Daugherty, Mr.. West and Judge
Wilkerson are not out of harmony
with the republican platform, though
they are out of accord with the
United States constitution and every
fundamental of JUSTICE.
Writ is Denial of Lawful Rights
"The West -Wilkerson injunction il
favor of the Western Union is purely
another case of outright denial o,
lawful rights in which we find the
secretary of the republican nationa
committee living up to expectation.

WHY
America Should Prohibit
Immigration For Five
Years

America has done nobly by the
stranger. From the beginning she
has been home for the oppressed.
Glass distinction, social prejudices,
differences by birth, religion or ideas
have not been erected as barriers. A
man was recognized as man "for a.
that"
Nobly has our generosity been re-
warded. In the conquest of the west
they have borne the burden. In the
crisis of the Civil war they stood by
the Union. In the development of
great public enterprises they have
done the rough work. Those who
came were our kinsmen. Men from
the British Isles and Northern Eu-
rope. Their ideals were readily ad-
| justed to our own.
But change has taken place. The
character of the immigrant is differ
ent. Now more come from Southern
Europe. Instead of joining in the
conquest of the west they conges1 our
already over-congested cities. They
come without money, without educa-
ton and without standards of living
Their ideals of government are aiier
to our own.
The problem of our cities, always
serious, has become acute since the
World war. We are without suffi-
cient houses fer homes, which tends
to lower moral standards. Gu,
schools are inadequate to meet the
growing numbers, which breeds igno.
rance, vice and crime. Huddled il
districts they live in America as
though not in America. Our laws
are ignored and strife is all too com.
mon.
Therefore, for the sake of the
strangers who come to our shores
as we'll as for the best interests. Oh
those who are already here, and fol
the we'll being of our homes and in
situations, we ought to lock the gates
against all strangers for the next five
years.
We owe it to the founders of this
republic to guard the institutions anc
laws we have inherited. We have &
trust to preserve the ship of state
To load a boat beyond the law o.
safety means the destruction of ALL
We owe it to our homes to see tina
the moral standards of society ar,
not lowered. To create abnormal con
ditions that breed imm orality is t.,
jeopardize the family.
We owe it to the future Americ;
to guarantee an intelligent and con
tented citizenship. Every American
child must have an opportunity fo
education in our public schools
Neither child labor nor ignorance ca
be tolerated within our borders.

IT NEVER SHIRKS
Union Label Works Day
and Night
BY G. w. PERKINS

I'm Cigar Makers Official JournaD
In our political life our country
has it's flag which stands for free
dom, democracy and justice and to
which we all bow in sublime admir-
alton, devotion and answering
fealty.
On the economic field of endeavor
we have our union labels, acknowl-
edged and declared to be a potential,
driving, helpful force and assistance
in creating unions and maintaining
them steadfast and intact; in Great
ing fair wages, shorter hours and
better working and living conditions,
the union label is silent working
agency that is even beyond the con-
troll and interference of injunction
judges. 1t is the least expensive
agency we have. 1t works day and
night. 1t never shirks nor complains,
1t never quits. 1t is always ready
and willing to serve. 1t should not be
neglected The label richly deserves
our recognition, our unqualified devo-
ton, our constant and faithful pat
ronage. Hostile, labor batting en-
ployers, open shoppers, big interests,
grasping profteers employ all known
means to defeat the just aspirations
of trade unionists and our yearning
for a better economic, social and
political life.
Let us herewith renew our faith in
and our loyalty to labor's economic
flag, and to pledge our undivided sup
port and patronage to the union label
shop card, button and working card
of all unions.
Let US call upon the workers in al
trades and callings to pledge thei,
loyalty to and support of the unior
label, thus typifying their devotion te
that emblem of economic solidarity
and fraternal good will.
