Railroad Appeals Company
Union Rule to Supreme C'rt

Norfolk, Va. (AFLNS)-Oficials of
the Virginian railway here announced
they were appealing to the United
States Supreme Court the decision of
Judge Luther B. Way, in the Fourth
circuit court of appeals, requiring the
railroad to recognize American Fed
Grafton of Labor union among shop
employees for collective bargaining
purposes, rather than the company
unions, which railroad officials insist
are the legal representatives of the
workers.
The case arises from an election
conducted by the National Mediation
Board in August, 1884, which showed
that a majority of the shop employees
| favored the A. F. of L. unions. The
ruling of the board was fought by
the railway, but was sustained by
both lower courts, which held the cleo
ton was properly and legally con-
Quoted.

PHILADELPHIA
Law Fixing BARRIERS Hours
Is Void

Philadelphia, Pa. (AFLNS)-The
action of a Philadelphia ordinance
which requires barber shops to close
at 8 D. m. on weekdays and 9 p. m.
on Saturdays, and prohibits Sunday
operation, was declared unconstitu-
titional in decision handed down
here by Judge George Gowen Parry
He upheld the provisions of the or
dinance for maintenance of sanitary
conditions in barber shops, but on the
hours limitation declared:
1.-THE number of hours barber shoI
may be open bears no direct relation
to public health or safety. The con
tention that adequate inspection vii
be impossible if the shops are oper
all hours is manifestly untenable.'
Judge Parry based his decision OF
the principle that the city counci
is subject to limitation in the SAM
degree as the legislature in attempt
| ing to regulate private business.

FRIDAY, JULY "a, 1886
THE EDITORS AND THE
SUPREME COURT

EVELYN Miller Crowell is lady who
reads editorials. She writes in the
current issue Of the New Republic
that she read 344 editorials on single
subject-the decision of the United
States Supreme Court knocking out
the New York law fixing minimum
wages for women. And she finds that;
"Out of 344 editorials on the mini
mum wage decision, there We're only
10 that approved the decision. OF the
nine newspapers represented 1.-TWO
editorials were from the same paper),
six were from the deep South, two
from New England, and one from up
state New York. All were from cheap
labor sections, the majority from tex
tile towns
Miss or Mrs. Crowell says
that an imposing list Of ultra con-
servative newspapers urged a eonsti-
tutional amendment to overturn the
decision. For example:
The law that would jail any laun-
dry-man for having an underfed horse
should jail him for having an under
fed girl employe So, we must change
the law Albany Knickerboeker
Press.
If the constitution stands in the
way Of human progress, as the people
of today conceive it, the constitution
should be amended and made clear
Rutland, Vermont, Herald.
"on 50 gravely important mat.
ter, there must sooner or later come
decision from the people, transcend
ing even that Of the supreme court.
Birmingham, Ala, Age-Herald.
All these papers are decidedly con
servative. When 334 editorials out q
344 criticise the decision and large
numbers Of the papers in which these
editorials appeared are ready for {
constitutional amendment, it woulc
seem that the FIVE reactionaries Of th'
supreme court, who take such obvious
pleasure in blocking progress and de
stroying reform, had gone little to-
far.

A. T. & T. does enjoy monopoly
of all the telephone service in the ma
ton. 1t also finances movies and IS
tied up with the telegraph and radio
industries through interlocking direc-
torates.
Is this one of the monopolies the
politicians are attacking?? If SO,
what are they going to do about it :!
Are they going to dissect and divide
it so there will be two or five COM
peting companies? Are they going to
restore equality of opportunity" by
placing two to five telephones on our
desk to drive us goofy?
They can't do it. The public Is
not SO much concerned about the mo-
nopoly as it is about how it is con
Quoted. No, we won't turn back the
clock of progress. We will not bloch

There is one thing sure-a nation
wide monopoly of this kind cannot b.
controlled by state law, regardless O
what the supreme court has said abou
it. And there are only two thing
that government can do to nonopolie

they charge for their service and tn

RAIL PENSIONS DESPITE
JUDICIAL VETO

1t was quite generally believed that
the action of Justice Jennings Bailey
of the District of Columbia Supreme
Court in handing down decision that
the railroad retirement tax act of
1885 was unconstitutional and his in
junction prohibiting government Of
ficials from instituting proceedings de-
signed to collect from the railroads the
31a per cent payroll tax which the
measure prescribed, definitely barred
payment of railroad pensions pending
action of the higher courts on Justice
Bailey's edict. The act also required
the railroads to deduct 1a per cent OF
the wages paid railroad employees. JUS
tice Bailey's decision held that the tax
act was unconstitutional, but did not
| invalidate the retirement act setting
up the pension system
Without taking into consideration
judicial action on the two pension bills
the last congress appropriated S46,-
$685. 900 for pension payment on the
theory that the taxes levied on the
carriers and railroad employees would
eventually come into the United States
treasury.
Under this appropriation the Rail
road Retirement Board declares that il
will proceed to pay the pensions au-
thorized by the retirement act as long
as the appropriation holds out
About 1000 railroad workers arc

old age retirement system for othel
persons than employees of the govern
ment.
As a starter the board certified Il
annuities ranging from $13.55 t.

available for railroad workers who ar
