be instructed by the general as

bona fide labor union to the state
board Of education under require
ments of the concurrent resolution

His resolution called attention to
the 1913 act, providing that one
representative of employers and
one of labor be named to the edu-
cation board.
Labor is represented by teacher
and not member of any labor or

is palpably unfair and should be
remedied by the Governor" The
resolution was referred to the edu-
cation committee.
