After the close of the conference

without further ado to sentence six

was the magistrates opinion in spite
of the fact that several witnesses

The police inspector wanted the
strikers to restrict themselves to So

To this Shapiro would not agree, de-
handing the right Of the union to
have at least 90 pickets on each side
of every block. The conference adj

Berry, Who Broke Press
Strike, Reads Sermon
On Loyalty to Bosses

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa, June 16.
The Iowa State Federation of La
Dor convention here is a rather con-
sentative body, but nothing it has
ever done justified the punishment
inflicted upon it yesterday. Major
George L. Berry, the president by
virtue Of gang rule, of the Interna-
tional Printing Pressmen's Union, the
man who imported scabs to break
the New York strike, spoke to them
several hours on the rights of en-
ployers.
Labor, says Berry, must remember
that the employer has a right to a
good profit on his investment and:
"Both employers and employees and
unity Of interests, but there are
employers in America noisy mi
nority-who believe the trade union
movements are formed for the pur-
pose of engaging in a campaign for
the confiscation Of employers prop
erty, and therefore the employers
must be in continuous campaign Of
retaliation and the precipitating Of
warfare among organized workers.
"The employer who thinks it is the
function of trade unions to confis-
cate his property is just as bad as
and no worse than the trade union
list, so called, who thinks that the
property Of capital should be divided
piecemeal among the constituent
parts of labor"
Berry himself is a big capitalist,
altho he presumes to speak in the
name Of organized labor.

Graphic Editor, Up On
Same Charge as Dunno,
Has Much Smaller Bail

In striking contradiction to the
New York court policy followed IN
the case Of the editors Of The
DAILY WORKER, Emile H. Gauv-
reau, managing editor Of the
Graphic is out on 500 bail while
on trial for publishing prohibited
matter in his paper.
When Dunno and Miller Of The
DAILY WORKER faced trial on
a similar charge recently, they
were held on $500 bail, and as soon
as convicted, were held without
bail and practically incommuni-
cado, while awaiting punishment.
After conviction, and serving part
Of his sentence, bonds for Dunno
during appeal are set at 1000, OF
just ten times the amount Cauv-
reau must put up.
Gauvreau is represented by At.
torney Max Steuer, who pleads
that the section Of the statute I'M
der which his client is charged is
unconstitutional, in that it specifics
no standard of observation-disclosures
by which to Judge the matter
printed. It might be compared, he
argues, with a law prohibiting fast
driving, without defining what
speed is legal.
