Here the dairyman can allow his
herd to remain out III the open day

north the dairymen have to build
barns and their cattle must be hous

Il corresponding drop in production
and a less vigorous condition in the

"If the western world persists in
manning its merchant marine with
slaves instead of men, the trade of
the world will go to the Orient" says
Furuseth. "The Occidental will not
much longer sell himself to master
and shipowner When the young man
desiring to go to sea realizes that to
do so he must sacrifice all the rights
he has on land, he will refuse to go.
The tools Of any artisan go to those
who know how to use them. The ship,
which is the sailors tool, will go to
the nation that has learned best to
use it.
"Under the maritime laws of every
nation except America the seaman is
a slave from the time he signs his
contract until it expires, either auto
matically or by will Of the master.
If the seaman terminates the contract
he goes to jail. 1t is about time the
hundreds Of thousands of seamen of
the world were set free"

Z WASHINGTON, D. c., June A.
A fight to the finish to win for the
seamen of other nations the same
rights that American seamen enjoy
will be waged by Andrew Furuseth,
president of the International Sea-
mems Union of America. Furuseth
sailed recently for Europe to begin
the fight, which is expected to be the
biggest job he has ever tackled,
America, of all countries, thanks to
Furuseth and the seamen's union,
treats her sailors like human beings.
The purpose of the seamen's act of
1915 was to permit a sailor the right
every landsman has, that is, to leave
is ship and master If he is dissatis-
fed with the job. The rest of the
nations persist in the slave clause
which makes sailor leaving his ship
in safe harbor deserter and felon.
Furuseth is setting out to Holland,
Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Germany
France and England to persuade these
nations to write new international
statute in line with the twentieth CEN
tury and to include in it the Magma
Charta of the seamen, the La Toilette
law.

UNION LABEL COMES SAYS
CANADIAN LABOR MAN

MONTREAL, June 4.-Approving
the Buy in Canada" campaign of
the Canadian manufacturers, the
Montreal Trades and Labor Council
took occasion to observe that the man
ufacturers should proctice what they
preached, and that if they wanted
their campaign to be a success they
should first see that their goods were
manufactured under conditions fair
to the workers.
Much as we appreciate the impor-
tance of encouraging home produc-
tion, our first consideration must be
the union label, the sign goods are
made under fair union conditions"
declared President ]. T. Foster. "As
between imported goods bearing the
union label and "made in Canada"
goods without the label, it is our duty
to support the label goods every time.
The Canadian manufacturer, if he
wants the cooperation of organized
labor, must give his workers such
terms as to permit US to patronize
his goods"
A committee appointed by the
council reported that they had dis
covered ample evidence that many
large Canadian manufacturers were
importing many articles which they
could obtain in Canada. In some in
stances this might have justification,
as in the case of branch plant using
printing furnished by the parent con-
cern in the United States. But in
general it laid a very considerable
number of manufacturers open to the
charge of insincerity, it was pointed
out.

Rule by the Mob Must be Crushed
Or Government Ceases to Function

Dallas, Texas, has just been exper-
fencing the thrill of mob action, with
the killing of one and the wounding
of a half dozen of the rioters who
sought to take two Negro prisoners
from the county jail.
The Negroes were accused OF helm
Gus crimes. They were under grand
jury indictment. The law was moving
and moving with unusual rapidity, as
it does sometimes in such cases and
so seldom in other kinds of cases.
There was every reason to expect
that in short order the two men would
have been tried and either convicted
and punished or else acquitted. Few
could have looked for acquittal, un-
less there should have been in store
an unsuspected and overwhelming
volume Of evidence in favor of the in
dicted prisoners. There was surely
no reason to look for an improper and
unjust acquittal. The men were col
ored and they were poor.
Fortunately Dallas has a sheriff
who is courageous. He and other Of

LABOR LEADER ON IND.
STATE INDUSTRIAL BOARD


INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, June a.

Perkins succeeds Charles Fox of Ter
re Haute, Ind, whose term had ex-
pired. The appointment is for four

chairman and served until James P.

Tom Moore, president of the Trades

dressing the convention, regretted
there had been a falling of in the
brands of shoes bearing the union
label purchaseable in Canada. This
was not so much the fault of the shoe
workers union, as of other trade un-
ionists, and those who remained with
out the union. The labor movement,
Mr.. Moore added, was being assailed
from without and from within, and
there never was a time when more
loyalty was demanded of union men
or greater effort to strengthen their
organizations.

LAWS AGAINST

URGEDFOR ALL WORKERS
D. 1ntaraitlonal Labor News ssrvIes


ALBANY, N. Y, June 4-Failure
Of five compensation amendments
covering occupational disease after a
two years fight by the New York
State Federation of Labor has re-
suited in a change in tactics in which
it is suggested that the best strategy
to obtain protection against indus
trial disease is for the labor move
ment to strive for blanket laws rath-
er than to aim for piecemeal iegisla-
tion covering only certain hazards.
This has been the suggestion Of the
Workers. Health Bureau to the trade
unions.
The present New York occupation
al disease law covers 21 ailments, but
there is no provision for poisoning
from '9ooney" gas or benzol or for
ills arising from breathing stone
dusts and chemicals.
Four States and the Federal Gov
ernment have blanket occupational
disease laws; five other States and
two territories give protection to a
limited degree for specified ills, while
81 States ignore these hazards of
workers all together.
States having blankeA legislation
for occupational disease are Califor-
mia, Connecticut, Massachusetts, and
Wisconsin. Compensation for a linn
tied number of occupational diseases
are given in Illinois, Minnesota, New
Jersey, New York, North Dakota and
Ohio and two territories, Hawaii and
Porto Rico.

ficials stopped the mob and soldiers
were called upon to serve as guards
thereafter. Dallas was saved from
the disgrace Of a lynching.
If accused men are guilty, the place
to determine that fact is in the courts.
If they are innocent they surely
should have a chance to prove that
innocence in the courts. Few men
have been able to prove their inno-
cence to a mob, and mobs have lynch
ed many innocent men.
Mobs are the last word in antithes-
is of organized government. Organ
lied government means order, and
mobs mean disorder and their con-
duct is just as unlawful as the con-
duct of whatever guilty men they
lynch. There is not one valid excuse
for mob action.

PIcKETING NOT CRIMINAL

SEATTLE, Wash, June 4.-Cor-
poration' Counsel Kennedy says pick
citing is not criminal offense in this
state. The state supreme court has
ruled against picketing, but the city
attorney holds that this decision is
based on civil cases in equity and not
on the penal code. Enforcement of
civil rights does not devolve on the
police, he says.

Generally there have been too many
factories, but this problem is now
complicated by the fact that it is diff
icult for the large factory to place
large orders. Up-to-the-minute styles
have developed hand-to-mouth buy
ing, and it appears that the supply
ing of the retail trade from large
central stores has had it's day. Retail
shoe dealers are more numerous than
prosperous, and it is only by virtue
of the rapid style changes and hand
to-mouth buying that they exist.
Higher Wages Needed
Cooperation with the manufactur-
ers to enable them to adapt their
business to the new marketing prob
lens is necessary but progress and
prosperity can only be obtained by
an improvement in the standard Of
living and an addition to the purchas-
ing power of the wage earners. Over
production would not occur if people
had sufficient wages to satisfy their
needs, the report says.
The convention unanimously re-
elected the following officers:
General president, Coils Lovely, of
st. Louis; general vice president,
Gadd Martindate, Of Rochester; gen.
eral secretary-treasurer, c. L. Baine,
Mara, Cincinnati, and G. w. Lawson,
st. Paul.
John F. Reardon, Milford, Mass;
George w. Douglas, Whitman, Mass;
and E. M. Keuhn, Chicago. were elect
ed as general auditors.
The following were elected dele
gates to the American Federation of
Labor: j. T. Beasley, Boston, Mass;
Frank Anderson, Chicago, and Molly
E. Weitler, Cincinnati. The election
of the last named delegate was the
signal for spontaneous ovation on
the part of 1.-THE delegates in honor Of
the woman who has been engaged in
the labor movement in the United
States since 1885.
Salaries Are Raised
The president and secretary were
each granted salary increases from
$1,000 to $500 annually, and the vice
president from $4,000 to $4,000. The
initiation fee on January 1, 1925, will
be raised from 81 to 50, the reinstate-
ment fee from "a to IS, and weekly
dues from 25 to 36 cents. The secre-
tary estimated that these changes
would increase the general funds by
$4,000 and the local funds by $780,
600. Death benefits were raised from
$50 to $100 for six-month members,
and 500 to 5000 for members of over
two years standing. The 1927 con-
vention will meet in Rochester, N. Y.

CHICAGO, June 4.-Chicago Tv-
biographical Union No. 16 has Just
dealt R. R. Donnelley 9 Sons Co. Of
this city crushing blow in an in
junction proceeding. Superior Judge
Oscar Hebel has entered an order dis
missing Donnelley's bill for injunc-
tion, dissolving the temporary injunc-
tion heretofore granted by Judge Dem
is Sullivan, and awarding Chicago
Typographical Union an assessment
of $1,000 damages against Donnelley
for wrongfully suing out an injunc-
tion.
The decision Of Judge Hebel holds
in substance that the union was not
guilty of the unlawful acts charged
by Donnelley in his original bill, and
further that the union in doing what
it did to enforce the "struck work"
clause against the handling by union
members &c electrotype plates orig
mating in Donnelley's non-union
printing establishment had a lawful
right to order its members to strike.
Legal Battle Begun in 1928
The history of this legal battle ex-
tends back to April 1928, when Dom
nelley filed a bill against Chicago
Typographical Union and on an-ex-
parte hearing obtained a temporary
injunction which enjoined the union
from in any way interfering with the
handling of electrotype plates of
Marshall Field & Co. advertisements
which were then being set up and
electrotyped by Donnelley & Co. for
use by the Chicago daily newspapers.
The injunction order further enjoined
the union from striking or in any
manner boycotting Donnelley. The
injunction was also served on most of
the individual members employed on
all newspapers.
At the conclusion Of arguments on
motion to dissolve the injunction,
Judge Sullivan modified the tempo
rary injunction by striking out all
