pay Pittsburgh charges Corporation we

pay Pittsburgh Plus" charges on steel while the anti-union employers were not forced to pay the "Plus" charges.
 After declaring that pieketing is lawful, Justice Lydon goes on to say of the charges of violence made by the employers:
 T do not find any charges in the af- fdavits which would support finding that the pickets exceeded their rights as such. The members of the de- fendants' union have a perfect right to refuse to work with non-union men, and non-union men, on the other hand, have the right to work when and where they please.
 Tt is true that 1t has been held by the courts in certain cases where vio- 1ence has been shown to have occurred, that even when the moving afhdavits upon an application for an injunction are substantially denied by a defend ant, that nevertheless the court will grant an injunction pendente lite, but in this case the few instances of al- legged violence have. not been substan- tiated by proof of sufficient probative force"
 Justice Lydon held that it may be that the unions contention that the employers do not come into court with clean hands may be sustained upon trial. The question as to whether the employers are, as alleged by the union, engaged in conspiracy to de- stroy the organization is clearly raised by the papers in the case, and if estab- 1ished would be decisive of the fact that the employers are not entitled to come into equity court for relief, the justice adds.

which the Steel Corporation would probably collapse of it's own weight" :" continued MT. O1ander, "were largely created by and mainly exist under the shelter of judicial decision. The per tiality of the corporation officials to- ward the extension of certain court powers as exemp1ihed by Garys state ment few years ago when he advised the American Bar Association that the equity court should be given certain enlarged powers unrestricted by 1egis- 1ative enactment may be reciprocated in the judiciary by willingness to uphold and extend corporate powers which the Steel Trust considers essen tial"

ment as was possible, but when the hearing took place before Justice Pierce, to every ones surprise, he en- deavored to prevail upon the contest ing parties to adjust their differences, and instead of issuing a temporary in junction instructed the parties to make every effort to reach an adjustment through negotiations.
 It is assumed that Justice Pierce had already seen copy of the state ment which was to have been pre- sented to him, and the extraordinary events which followed the first hear ing in the case are unquestionably more or less bound up with the state ment which MT. Gatelee had pre- pared and which in its entirety con- stitutes one of the most extraordinary documents connected with the use of the writ of injunction in connection with industrial disputes.
 In the articles to follow, further reference will be made to this docu- ment which defined the attitude of Springfield trade unionists. The story of how the victory was won will also be told.

IRON LEAGUE IS
 DENIED INJUNCTION
Union Wins When Judge Refuses Injunction in Famous New
 York Strike.
By International Labor News Service

By International Labor News Service. New York, Aug. 9-The Iron League has lost the first round of its injunc- ton fight against the striking iron workers of New York.
 Supreme Court Justice Lydon has refused to enjoin the workers from picketing, declaring that "Picketing IS lawful when lawfully conducted' and stating that the evidence submitted by the anti-union employers in support of their charge of personal violence by the unions pickets is mot only very weak but is substantially disposed of by af6davits submitted by the union. Justice Lydon, in an extended opin- ion, held that there was too much doubt about the right of the employ CTS to an injunction to warrant granting a restraining order at this time. To issue an injunction pending trial would be tantamount, he said, to determination in advance of trial of the issues involved.
 The, suit to restrain the union was brought by IA firms of iron and steel League, who alleged that they had $10,O 100000 worth of contracts in New York which they were prevented from completing or starting because of a strike called against them May 1. They sued for $5,000,OO0 damages and asked that the union be restrained from picketing or interfering with strike breakers they imported from other cities.
 As already told by International Labor News Service, the union in its answer denied the charges of the e1n p1oyers and filed counter claim for I$10,O0O,000 damages, alleging a con spiracy by the IA firms, backed by the United States Steel Corporation, the Bethlehem Steel Corporation and other big steel companies to destroy the union.
 In support of these allegations, Frank P. Walsh and Samuel Unter myer, counsel for the union, charged that in return for refusing to en- p1oy union labor the steel mills granted the members of the Iron League a differential rate i'll the pur- chase of steel to be used in New York City and vicinity. Though Pitts burgh Plus,' the practice just for bidden by the Federal Trade Commits sion, was not mentioned, 1t IS under stood that the steel companies forced employers friendly to union labor to

This quotation is from a document which had been prepared for the pur- pose of placing it upon judges bench III Massachusetts as he was about to issue a temporary injunction against striking members of the Bakers Union in Springfield, Mass. The document, however, did not become part sof the court records neither was it given publicity at the time, for through an extraordinary turn of events no, in junction was issued, and instead trade union official, without legal training or knowledge of court procedure, won the most brilliant victory in an in junction case in the annals of equity court practice in Massachusetts.
 The story of the case is the most unique and startling in the history of the trade union movements exper- fences with equity courts, either in Massachusetts or i'll any other state. Its beginnings were the same as thous- ands of others. The Bakers Union of Springfield, Mass, for many years had enjoyed satisfactory trade agreements with the master bakers. One of these, ambitious and energetic, had organized corporation and established bakeries in number of cities. As the cor poration grew 1t became less friendly in its attitude, and finally in April, 1923, refused to enter into any further written agreements with the Bakers Union in Springfield and in Holyoke, Mass.
