LABOR BACKS
Judge Who FrOwns On Use
of Strike Injunction

By international Labor News Service
New York City.-Organized labor
occasionally has an opportunity to
support a Judge who opposes the use
Of the injunction in industrial dis
putes. Such is the case here, where
the unions are fighting for the re-
election of Justice Humphrey j. Lynch
as justice of the supreme court for
the Ninth judicial district.
Judge Lynch won labor's support
when he denied temporary injunc-
tion to restrain union men from pick
citing Yonkers bakery where a strike
had been called.
Justice Lynch pointed out that the
place where the alleged offense was
being committed was on one Of the
principal business streets within a
short distance of police headquarters.
If the union men violated the law,
the employer would experience no diff
ficulty in having them arrested and
punished, said Judge Lynch.
IF such course were resorted to-"
continued the justice, "the defendant
(the union pickett would be afforded
an opportunity to meet his accuser
and bring witnesses before the court,
who, after seeing them, could readily
determine ther credibility and then
definitely determine whether or not
the law had been violated.

procedure that the founders of oul

WHAT PRICE BEAUTY

Although American women spend
an estimated total of 81 1926 100000 a
year on cosmetics and beauty care,
the beauty trade has so far been un-

in Sd New York city establishments,

Chicago, on the other hand, found its

continuous protest against the bru-

police force, commissioned by the
state of Pennsylvania, and the intimi-
dating tactics of the deputy sheriffs
and state constabulary.
More than half of the miners are
preparing to spend their third winter
in the hills of Pennsylvania. Vice
President Murray, who is in charge of
District 5, United Mine Workers of
America, which comprises the Pitts
burgh and West Penn region, and his
associates, the district and national
officers, are meeting every legal trick
and police brutality with intelligence
and determination. They contend that
the criminal methods of the coal and
iron police sustained by deputy sher-
ifs and state constabulary, can not be
successful if the labor movement and
The American public recognize the JUS
tice of the miners position.
Big Job Ahead
Winter quarters are being built at
six mining villages at present, but if
the courts sustain the coal companies
upon their plea for wholesale evic-
tions, the union will have to build bar
racks for some 10000 families. The
American Federation of Labor at its
convention in Los Angeles, directed
the attention of the delegates to the
conditions Of the miners in western
Pennsylvania with the result that a
conference of international and ma
tional union representatives will be
held in Pittsburgh, November IA, to
take such action as will give the
striking miners proper support until
they win their lockout.
The business mems associations in
the Pittsburgh and West Penn dis
tricts, are denouncing the Pittsburgh
Coal Company, which broke it's agree
ment with the miners nearly three
years ago. With vindictiyeness that
1 is almost impossible to believe, this
coal company has compelled other
large coal operators and the steel
trust to join with them in attempting
to break the miners union. Thousands
of negroes from the south are strike
breaking in the mines, without any
opportunity to get away after finding
out the true conditions of the coal
miners. They are being killed and in
jured by the hundreds, because of
their inexperience with powder, and
when they have tried to get away, are
beaten up by the coal and iron police.

Successful Future for Union
Labor Life Insurance Company
By International Labor News Service.

By International Labor News Service.
Chicago.-Speeding up of the work
of the western office of the Union La
Dor Life Insurance Company has
taken place as result of the return
to Chicago of George w. Perkins, vice
president-western representative, who
attended the Los Angeles convention
Of the American Federation of Labor
as delegate from the Cigar Makers
International Union.
Mr.. Perkins says that substantial
results have been achieved in writing
life insurance in the Western territory
since the opening of the Western
headquarters at 623 South Wabash
avenue, Chicago, last summer. He is
sanguine of a. very successful future
for the company.
Why Labor Is in Field
Asked to make statement in ref
erence to the plans and purposes of
the Union Labor Life Insurance Com
pany, Mr.. Perkins replied as follows
Zone of the outstanding issues that
prompted our trade unions to enter
the field of insurance was to place ON
sound basis the insurance of the
unions that were paying death bene-
fits, which in most cases were deter
mined without insurance experience,
and consequently the income failed to
meet the liabilities (this is particu-
larly true in nearly all fraternal or
ganizations supplying fraternal in
surance), and to transfer this impor-
tant feature Of one of our trade unions
lesser activities to one company
owned and controlled by organized
labor. This is in line with the GEN.
tralization and federation which has
been and is going on in industrial pro-
ductivity and distribution.
another factor was that the So
called big interests were applying the
group insurance plan to their en-
ployes. Fifteen years ago there was
