The Skellet company was one of
the firms requested by the U. S.
Marshal to send trucks to the
Strutwear plant. These were
adorned with banners plainly
showing that they were operating
under orders of a United States
Court. But U. S. Courts don't
rate very high with the outlaw
element in control of Local 574.
The Skellet trucks were sent back
to the firm, empty and under or
ders from Local Iva to ignore U.
S. Court orders. Local 574 won.
The United States Court lost!

got! We should be proud of it.
But I'm not done with the
Skellet company:
In punishment for having at
tempted to secure some perfectly
legitimate business, the company
was selected by the communist
'Teaders" and labor racketeers to
be held up as horrible exam
ple." The officials were inform
ed that no Skellet truck could
operate until certain demands
of Local 574 were met. Among
these demands was one or two, to
the effect that no Skellet COM
pany truck or van could move on
public streets until every employe
of the company had become a
dues-paying member of commit
mist and outl0zUed Local 574 and
as l write these lines on Monday,
not a Skellet Transfer Company

Local 574 is running Mime

For the benefit of those busi-
ness gentlemen who fondly i'm
agile they are masters of their
own destiny, speaking from a
business standpoint, let me call
their attention to two incidents
of last week:
When U. S. Court issued the
replevin order for removal of Ger
tain goods and chattels from the
Strutwear Knitting company
plant, orders went out to local
transfer companies to send trucks
the idea being to let the work
out to local firms who employed
local labor. Trucks attempting
to obey the orders of a United
States Court were stoned and
drivers ordered to return to their
respective bases.
The LaBelle Transfer Co. was
preparing to send out two trucks,
each bearing the banner explain
ing that the truck was operating
under orders of the United States
District Court. Into the Office of
the LaBelle Transfer company
popped Bill Brown, president of
communist Local 574 (an out
laaVed LOCAL. and Grant Dunno,
noted communist agitator. These
two worthless CURLY informed the
oaUvsers of the LaBelle Transfer
Co. that any attempt to move
goods under protection OF a
United States court order zUould
result tn a strike being called
agissst the LaBelle Company BY
a union" that had no interest
whatever in the Strutwear Knit
ting Company strike" except
that of racketeering!
l don't know, never met, a
single member of the LaBelle firm
and if l never do, / won't feel
that I've lost much. But | know
this:
That any employer who will
take orders of that nature from
racketeers of the Dunne-Browr
stripe is better qualified to fill thu
drivers seat of a junk wager
than the swivel chair at the mair
desk OF any business.
What those two rascals won
and didn't get, was a necklace
made of gas pipe, three coils dee
and any employer with the cour
age of a worm would at leas
have bid them farewell with al
ink bottle or a cuspidor. But nc
at the LaBelle. The United State
Court banners went down, tn
trucks stayed in cold storag
