staunch union chaps:
After these signs had been
completed BY nonnnion zoorkers
and distributed, posted, by non-
Union acorkers, Tom secured a
nnion label and sent these same
men over the county TO stamp
the "bng" on all signs!
How do you like it? Ask
him to deny this statement!
"a cheap trick" did you say?
Cheaper than that, because the
men 7rho painted his signs, dis
fri,.:.;ed them a, d. later recovered
the territory in order to stamp
the borrowed union label on each
sign, never received a cent for
their labor!
Now, let's step along to, the
last municipal campaign and take
a look-see at Toms maneuvers
in that one:
Heavy tin or sheet iron
signs cost money-if purchased.
The Schmidt Brewing Co. was
attempting to educate the public
to lap-up one brand of its prod
uct known as Getty Club suds.
In its educational campaign it
used not only good material
heavy sheet iron-but the best
of workmanship-artists, in their
line. There was something
hynotic in those Getty Club
signs and Tom was wont, as he
autoed around the countryside,
to appropriate an occasional one
not too many-of the Getty
Club" signs.
These he would desposit in
FIRST one location and then anoth-
err. When the collection made re-
decoration worthwhile, he would
have certain of his loyal bench
men collect them, take them to
his garage or basement, where,
with proper tools and sufficient
elbow-grease, delete the Schmidt
Brewery lettering and paint on
his own.
: 1t is apparent to all good
union men, that this work was
done without the employment
(or knowledge) of button-wear-
ing, dues-paying, devout menu
bers of organized labor. And it
must be quite apparent that the
use of the the union label was
omitted in view of the fact that
all labor employed was on a
gimme scale" and in the seclu-
sion of his basement or garage.
Now, / don't wish to impress my
readers with the idea that all of
Toms campaign sheet iron pla-
cards came from Schmidt Getty
Club" locations. Far from it,
very far from it. Quite few of
them. I have no means of know
The Saturday press. (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1927-1936, 1935-06-01

ing the exact number or what
caused the brewing company to
adopt the practice of pressing
their stock lettering into the iron
but that dirty trick eliminated
the sud factory signs as "a
source of raw material for
Tom.
But in the municipal campaign
of two years ago the absence of
the union label on Toms signs
began to attract the attention of
many of his strong union
friends. Something must be done
about it. Something was!
A friend who had a union sign
painters shop, supplied the need
ed stamp-the union '.bug." The
rest was easy. The same old crew
OF loyal supporters, under Toms
instructions, took charge of af-
fairs. They secured a truck
belonging to a brother of one of
the crew-and started out to
make all "elect Latimer mayor"
signs 100 per cent union!
They combed the city and
zVherever they located one of
these signs painted by nonnnion
painters and posted BY nonnnion
bill posters, they stamped it aoith
the mnion label! A grand cham
pion of organized labor, Ell?
Across the front of a hall 10
Gated at 18 University Ave. S.,
was huge Latimer sign-sans
union insignia. The problem
there was serious. The banner
must be adorned else some
snoopy union brother" would
wise up to the missing ''bug."
And the ''stamp act" must take
place without an audience.
Finally, with the aid of a long
ladder and a break in the traffic,
the Latimer for mayor banner
was brought into the anion fold!

ROSS-McLarnin
Rubber Match
Precedent Opposes Defend.
er; Weather Threatens;
Both Seek K. O.
BY STUART CAMERON
United Press Sports Editor

NEW YORK. May 28.-Barney
Ross. with youth, condition and
speed on his side, will go into the
ring with Jimmy McLarnin at the
Polo Grounds tonight almost a 2-to-
1 favorite to lick the Irishman and
regain the worlds welterweight
championship.
This third and rubber match be-
tween two of the finest fighters the
147-pound division has produced
will be witnessed by a crowd of some
$4,000 paying between $500 and
5000, 900.
Biggest question mark of the day
was the weather. Showers were
forecast for this afternoon or to-
night, and too much rain would call
for a 24-hour postponement. Be-
cause of the heavy advance sale it
was regarded as likely that the fight
would go on unless showers turned
into driving rain.
Ross, in addition to an apparent
superiority in condition and fighting
equipment, will have ring precedent
strongly on his side. No welter-
weight champion since 1929 has been
successful in the first defense of his
title.
The fans, and no less the fighters
themselves. are hoping tonight's en-
gagement will offer a real line on
relative merits of the Chicago Jew
and the West Coast Irishman.
They've already fought 80 rounds,
with a decision apiece.
Both boys are confident, Ross en-
Enthusiastically so, McLarnin with a
cold conviction. Although neither
seriously threatened a Knockout in
their earlier fights. each has PROM
ised to find the button tonight.
There is considerable speculation
as to who will referee the fight.
There is a strong belief that the
commission will name Jack Demp-
sey.
The title bout. if everything goes
on schedule, will begin about 10
