TRUCK Line Il
DENIED PERMIT
Rail Board HoNs That Lack
Of Public Demand Il Con.
trolling Factor

The policy to be followed by the
state railroad board in handling ap-
plicatiOns for permits to operate
motor freight services 10 outlined In
the recent decision Of that body re-
fusing togrant a permit to the Fargo
Moorhcad Trucking company to
operate motor freight service be-
tween Fargo and Nayvillc, Fargo and
Valley City and Fargo and Wshpctoh.
The application, which was opposed
by the railroads with which the motor
service would come in competition,
was denied on the ground that there
was no public demand for the service
offered. Numerous witnesses testi-
fled that they are satisfied with the
service being given by the railroads.
Pebble Detmand Paramount
The main point to be considered,
the commission pointed out, is, the
character OF the service to be render
public. Referring to claims by the
ground that they pay heavy taxes,
the commis sion said: Exhibits rela-
ting to taxes and the number Of en-
ployes at different points are inter-
esting but not controlling. The COM
mission has held in former cases Of
similar nature that any complaint rel
alive to inequality of taxation should
be directed to the legislature rather
than to the regulatory body"
Advantages claimed by the appli-
cant for motor freight service were
that there would be less handling Of
goods, that materials would be de-
livered direct to the doors of the
receivers, and that deliveries would
be made the same day they were
received. Other advantages claimed
for motors over railroad service were
savings in drayage, flexibility Of SER
vice and safer handling Of goods at
low temperatures.
yet in the face of all this the
record does not disclose scintilla
of evidence showing any public de-
mand or necessity for such expedi-
tious convcniences as offered by these
modern appliances" the board ruled.
This lack Of public demand, the COM
mission indicated. was the controlling
factor in the case.

SEVERAL SHOPS
SIGN UP With
FUR WORKERS

Several shops have signed up with
Local as, Chicago Fur Workers Union,
granting the demands of the workers
on strike. Up to the present date 60
shops have settled with the union.
More than $50 of the workers that
went on strike are now back at work
under the new agreement. More shops
are expected to settle before the end
of this week.
A clash has occurred in the Fur
Manufacturers Association. One
group in the association demands that
the association sign an agreement with
the union. The other insists on car
rying on the fight and searching for
non-union workers to break the strike.
The president of the association is
doing everything in his power to fore
stall any attempt on the part Of the
membership to sign up with the union.
The signing UP of Waller & COM
pany with the union was like bomb
shell thrown into the ranks of the
members of the association. The
Waller shop had been with the asso-
citation since its inception twelve
years ago. The other members were
stirred into action. If the present pol
icy Of the president is continued 1t is
declared that more will leave the
association and sign up individual
agreements with the union.

"They inform us that they are not

the union or its members. / insist
that they are manufacturers who

P ALMER CLOAK
SHOP SIGNS Up
ON union TERMS
Agreement Is Victory
for Chicago |. L. C. w.

The Percival B. Palmer shop, 367
West Adams St., the biggest cloak
making shop in Chicago has signed an
agreement with the international La
dies Garment Workers Union grant
ing the demands of the union.
This shop employs between 125 to
$50 workers. Much of its work is sent
out to contractors. Between $50 20
200 workers are employed in the out
side shops on work for the Palmer
concern.
10000 Union Shops.
The bosses of this shop have agreed
to 1000 organized shop. Workers
that are now working in the shop will
have their choice of joining the union
or leaving the shop.
Union Demands.
The demands of the union were the
recognition of the shop chairman, that
the shop chairman be allowed to take
ia hand in the division of time among
workers during the slow seasons, all
workers employed in the cloak shop
to either join the union or leave the
shop and the discharge of all non
union contractors.
No Concessions.
Former administrations Of the
union in dealing with this concern
have always given concessions to the
bosses. This time the left-wing adj
ministration of the union decided not
to give any concessions and If need be
tie-up production in the shop as a
step towards completely unionizing
the plant.
Shop Meetings.
Shop meetings were held three to
four times a week in the headquarters
of the union. At these shop meetings
the workers were told of the progress
that had been made in the negotia-
tions and prepared for a walk-out.
Blow to Right Wing.
The signing-up of this shop with
the union comes as blow to the right
wing. The right wing thruout the en-
tire negotiations have attempted to
hinder the present administration and
sought to destroy the confidence of
the workers in the shop in the left
wingers. Their purpose was not ac-
complished. The signing-up of this
shop on the terms of the union is a
victory for the union and shows that
the militancy inspired in the union by
the left wing forced the bosses to
terms.
