ARE YOU A SCAB
AFTER ALL?

Mr.. Union Man, you have "holler-
ed" and hurrahed for organized la
Dor, possibly have gone on strike for
better conditions, lost money and per-
haps a good job for the sake of your
principles, but
Did you ever think that maybe you
are scabbing against yourself?
Who made the shoe you are wear
ing? Has it the union label?
How about your underwear? Did
any union clerk ever get kick out of
you because he showed you union
suit without the union label?
That coat you wear-have you any
idea under what conditins it was
made?
When you bought that old hat you
wear did you look under the sweat
band for the union label?
That cigar or cigarette you are
smoking where's the union label?
The Big Question
If union man buys scab goods
regardless of quality just to save a
few pennies, he is taking the surest
way to promote scab competition for
himself. This is straight-the manu-
facturers could not sell volume of
scab goods big enough to keep them
in business if it were not for union
men who buy scab goods and patron
ize scab shops and restaurants.
If you do not stand hitched, how
in hell do you expect the other fellow
to do II 2

tion in every possible manner to aid

The Answer

There are not enough non-union
sympathizers in the United States to
support the business of scab employ
ers without union patronage. Scab
employers stay scab employers ONLY
BECAUSE UNION MEN BUY their
goods without demanding the label.
If every union man in the United
States would refuse to buy scab
goods, every merchant, every grocer,
every peddler would be HOWLING
for the label on the goods he sells.
The makers would be COMPELLED
to employ union labor or not get the
business.-Ex.

State Democrats hope to elect both
a Governor and a senator in the

predecessor in the White House.
Politicians are unusually inter-
ested because the contest may hinge
around many of the issues which led
Massachusetts to give its electoral
vote to AL Smith by 1900 in 1923.
For the senate the Democrats
have nominated Marcus A. Coolidge
against William NJ Butler. former
Republican national chairman.
For Governor they have named
Joseph e. Ely, q young and able
prosecutor, against Governor Allen,
who seeks reelection
Both the Democrats are running
as vets. while Butler obtained the
nomination by 5000 votes over
Ehen S. Draper, advocate Of repeal.
But Bossy ellis, Newburyport's
clown candidate. obtained $4,000
votes on a moist PLATFORM indi-
eating the G. o. P. has gone wet
as in New York.
To offset this, Butler is trying to
transform the prohibition struggle
into stand by the President af-
fair.

lions will have more effect on the
result than prohibition.

from lack OF water. It Is believed
the rivers now contain sufficient
water TO insure bumper crops from

Many ranchers have hesitated e

Reports from the Laguna dis

TO a much more successful cotton
