LABOR RECORD
Senator Opposed Workers

A. F. of |. Charge.
BACKED JUDGE PARKER
Union Men Should Vote for
Friends, Word Sent
to Indiana.
BY WALKER STONE
Times staff Writer

WASHINGTON Oct. William
Green. president of the American
Federation Of Labor, in a circular
letter to affiliated labor organiza-
TOMS in Indiana, made public here
today. cited the unfavorable labor
record Of Senator James E. Watson,
and said:
1t is Of supreme importance that
organized workers, their sympathiz-
ers and their friends, go to the polls
on election day and vote for those
candidates who they believe will be
fair TO labor and the people, and
against those who have made a leg
islative record unfavorable to labor.
The letter recounted WatSons
efforts to bring about confirmation
OF Judge John j. Parker's appoint
ment to the United States supreme
court.
Ignored LabOr's Objection
He did this Notwithstanding
labor's urgent appeal that he oppose
the confirmation, wrote Green. "As
you know, labor's opposition was
based upon Parkers decision as a
member of the United States court
of appeals unfolding and support
ing the yellow dog contract, which,
in operation and effect, forced work
ing people to surrender their right
to belong to trade union"
Enclosed in the circular letter was
the A. r. of l.. record of Watson's
votes on matters affecting labor.
without comment, the letter pointed
out that Watson has thirteen re-
corded votes in favor of labor meas
ures and ten in opposition"
Voted for Sales Tax
The record shows" said Green,
that Senator Watson voted on
three different occasions for adop-
ton of highly Objectionable sales
tax legislation, which, if accepted,
and put into effect, would place the
burden of taxation upon the masses
of the people, those least able to
bear 1t.
"A bill providing for an increase
in wages and salaries of postal en-
ployes, voted upon in the sixty
eighth congress, was vetoed by the
President, and Notwithstanding the
opposition of labor, Senator Watson
voted to sustain the veto.
Opposed Wage Increase
In 1880, during the seventy-first
congress, the senator voted in favor
of a conference report which denied
an increase in the wages to govern
ment employees.
The last vote which the record
shows the senator cast, on May 8,
1882, was in favor of the objection
able sales tax"
The letter did not list any of the
measures on which Watson had cast
votes in accord with labor's views.
