ALBERTATO DELAY
ACTION ON BUDGET
Social Credit Legislation Is De.
manded First by Insur-
gent Group.

BY Canadian Press.
EDMONTON, Alberta, March ~
A decision by Alberta's social credit
government to hold up the budget
now before the Legislature was dis
closed authoritatively today.
The budget, providing for increased
taxation, has drawn the opposition
OF an insurgent group In the Legis-
lature which declared that under So
cial credit increases in taxation were
unnecessary.
The group demanded introduction
OF social credit legislation before the
budget was passed.
With the fiscal year ending Wednes-
day, the government sought to on
set its lack of authority to spend any
public funds by proposing approval
of provisional estimates
Solon Low, provincial treasurer,
said he will present a resolution to
the House Monday asking approval
of these estimates to enable the gov
ernment to carry on while the budget
IS debated. ''

Campbell. He heard some Of the same
charges contained in today's cross bill
during the argument on the original
injunction, then overruled the unions
contention that the Chrysler Corp.
was not before the court with clean
hands"
Paralleling the corporations prayer
for levy Of $lo,o0o,0oo against the
goods and chattels" Of the strikers
for violation Of It's injunction, today's
cross bill says that the amount in con-
troversy is incapable Of accurate
measurement, but Is many millions of
dollars" 1t asks no monetary penalty.
Among the specific charges In the
cross bill is an allegation that the
Chrysler Corp discharged 5000 men,
bers of the United Automobile Workers
In direct violation OF the seniority rules
under which the corporation presumed
to be acting" That, the bill says, oc-
CURED last Fall.

datory injunction to compel the
Chrysler Corp. to grant it sole recog-
milton under the national labor re-
lations act.
Maurice Sugar, the attorney who
filed the action in Wayne County
Circuit Court as an answer and cross
bill to Chryslers recent injunction
petition, said it was the first attempt
to enforce the debated Wagner act
by injunction.
He said the counter move would be
held in abeyance, pending the outcome
Of strike settlement conferences be-
tween Walter P. Chrysler and John
L. Lewis in Lansing.
IF Chrysler does not agree to rec
ognize the U. A. W., we are prepared
to call the cross bill up for court
hearing he said. I'VE think we
are right and we believe We are en-
titled to The relief under The law"
The U. A. w. cross bill charges that
the corporation spent s275, 900 In four
years for labor spies," that it fos-
tered company unions" in opposi-
ton to the U. A. W., that it discharged
thousands Of employees for union ac-
tivities and that it has refused to
comply with the national labor rela-
tions act by recognizing the U. A. w.
as sole bargaining agency, although
a majority of the employees are union
members.
Arms Of Injunction Plea.
The injunction requested would en-
join the Chrysler Corp. from:
Violating any Of the terms and pro-
visions of the national labor relations
act In relation to the U. A. w. men,
bership.
Employing ANY person, corpora
ton, firm or agency . to spy upon
any employees"
Interfering with any employees In
the exercise Of their rights under the
national labor relations act, particu-
larly in their right to join the U. A. w.
and engage in its activities, including
collective bargaining.
Interfering with the formation or
administration of the U. A. w. and
from dominating or contributing
financial or other support to any labor
organization" Of its employees.
Discriminating against any en-
ployes "in order to encourage men,
bership in any labor organization. or to
discourage membership in the United
Automobile Workers of America.
Refusing to bargain with the
United Automobile Workers Of Amer
lea as the exclusive representative Of
all employees for the purpose Of col
lective bargaining in respect to rates
of pay, wages, hours Of employment
or other conditions of employment"
The 18-page document was nled on
the last day that any answer might
be entered to the Chrysler petition
for an injunction.
Circuit Judge Allan Campbell grant,
ed that injunction on March Is. order
ing sit-down strikers to leave eight
Chrysler plants. The strikers, how
ever, continued to hold the plants until
last Thursday when they evacuated in
accordance with truce arranged at
the Lansing conference.

hearing, it would come before Judge

who can stand lot Of the strenuous
life of down sitting.
In some other ind Btrtes the tech
nique must be slightly different and
methods must be employed which the
automobile union, its officers claim,
does not approve OF in its own field.
1t never, it claims, sends outsiders
into an automobile plant, either as
instigators or to bear some OF the
brunt OF the prolonged sitting. It
never starts operations until 1t Is rea-
sonably sure Of success.
In hotels and department stores 1t
is the usual practice to have all the
operations of the sit-down strike en-
gineered and controlled by expert
enced outsiders. But the same ele-
ments OF secrecy and suddenness
must be relied upon. The strikers
laugh heartily at one hotel sit-down
here In Detroit. It was on Satur-
day night. One of the most fashion,
able balls of the Winter was in prog
ress. The gowns Of the society lead
ers were a sight to behold.
Fashionable Ball Halted.
A gentleman inconspicuous in eve
ming clothes edged his way to the
middle Of the ballroom floor. Sud-
denly he shouted at the top Of his
voice: Strike" Immediately the Or
chestra stopped playing. With 4
moments hesitation the walters and
mattresses who were carrying cock
tails and various delicacies to those
who were sitting out the dance set
down their trays. The check girls
walked away, leaving the hats and
coats to be sorted out as best their
owners could manage it. The fash
ionable ball came to a dramatic
standstill, and at about the same time
the whole hotel came to a standstill.
Now, the officers Of the U. A. w. A.
naturally aren't moved to tears over
the discontinue Of the seasons de-
butantes and their escorts. They sus-
pect some Of them may have been
daughters and sos of automobile
manufacturers. The remarkable thing
is, they say, that none Of the en-
ployes who started sitting so quickly
at the command from the ballroom
door knew what was going to hap
pen q moment before. All they knew
was that there would be . strike soon
and that the order would come un-
expectedly.
They say they don't approve Of an
outsider walking into = place like
that, but they are unanimous in their
admiration for this fellow. He didn't
know, for sure, that q single person
would obey his command. He might
have taken chance in an automo-
bile plant. The worst that could have
happened to him is, that h, would
have been beaten up given the buns
rush and landed in . police station
with q cracked skull. Such q pros
pect wouldn't bother . real herman.
But this Organiser was . greater
hero. With unheard-of courage he
took q chance on making an ass Of
himself in the middle Of . ball room.

GREEN ISSUES CALL
FOR WAR ON c. |. 0.
Summons A. F. l. to Rally
Against Split in Ranks
by Rivals.
BY the Associated Press.

ST. LOUIS, March 27.-William
Green, president Of the American
Federation of Labor sounded the bat
tie cry toward c. I. o. rivals in an
address here today and asserted mo
siren voice can ever persuade our loyal
members to leave the ranks and ex-
pertinent in some uptried field"
1.-THE A. F. Of L. Is more strongly
entrenched in the hearts of workers
and the institutions Of America than
ever before" Green declared, land We
shall continue our line OF effort with
out compromise or modification"
The federation chieftain was speak
ing to officers and organizers Of the
International Association Of Bridge,
Structural and Ornamental Iron
Workers. The group met here to draft
plans for combating the Committee
for Industrial Organization, headed by
John L. Lewis.
Green charged the differences Of
industrial or craft organization "do
not constitute the real issue at pres
ent."
THE question involved is that OF
minority control or democratic proceed
ure," he stated THE advocates of
c. I. 0. were fairly defeated in the
A. F. of L. convention in Atlantic City
in 1885 and then revolted. Our atti-
tude is this:
Here is the house Of labor. The
door is open. The family inside is
united. You can come In and live with
us If you will We will settle all prob
lens by majority vote. But under
no condition can you force the family
to accept your dictates and automatic
control"

COAL MINERS TURN
TOPAY DISCUSSION
Negotiations Are Held Up by
Lewis Absence and Guf-
fey Bill Action.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, March 27.-Soft-coa
miners and operators negotiating q
new wage contract laid aside other
issues today to discuss the pay OF
the 100000 men the new agreement
will cover
When the negotiations started Feb
bruary II, the United Mine Workers
demanded IS per cent increase for
those miners paid by the day and is
cents ton increase for those paid
by the amount of coal they turned out.
The operators demanded that the
present pay scale remain in force
Closely linked with these demands
was the miners demand for a cut in
the work week from IS to 80 hours
and the operators for a 40-hour week
Discussions Secret.
Whether either side advanced any
compromise proposal was not dis
closed. The miners have contended
that increasing living costs made
pay increase imperative and that the
industry could we'll afford it in view
Of better business conditions. The
operators, on the other hand, have
said that increased competition from
fuel Oil and natural gas made it nee
essary to keep down coal prices.
The present agreement, drawn up
In September, 1895, expires next We'd
nesday midnight.
Lewis Absence Slows Talks.
In usually well-informed quarters,
the negotiations were said to be mov-
ing along at an unusually slow pace
because of the absence Of John L.
Lewis, union president. and doubts by
some operators as to whether the Sem
ate would approve the Guffey coal
control bill
Lewis was in Lansing, Mich, to
negotiate a settlement of the Chrysler
automobile strike.
The Guffey bill would permit the
operators to fix coal prices at level
that would assure return of the cost of
production plus reasonable" profit.
The miners contend this measure
would take care of their demands, but
some operators maintain any increase
in labor cost would raise prices to
such a level that coal could not meet
oils competition.
The miners expected Lewis to arrive
early next week and the Senate to
act on the Guffey bill Monday or
Tusday.

Whereas, the Nash-Finch Com
pany of Bozeman, Montana, has re-
fused to recognize the International
Brotherhood of Teamsters, Chauf
feurs, Stablemen and Helpers Of
America, Local No. So, and have
also refused to have their ware
housemen join the union,
Therefore, we, the Gallatin

in concurrence with Local No. So of

sters, Chauffeurs, Stablemen and
Helpers of America, request that the
above said Company be declared un-
fair to organized labor throughout
the State of Montana"
A number of attempts have been
made to settle the dispute but with
out results. Therefore all central
bodies and local unions are requested
to refrain from patronizing them.

PARADE And PICNIC
FEATURE ANACONDA
LABOR DAY events

The Central Labor Council of Ana
conda held its regular meeting last
night and the hall was completely
filled with delegates representing the
twenty eight unions affiliated with
the Council.
The meeting was called at 1880
p. m. James Durkin, president, pre-
sided. Sec. Healy read off several
communications of interest to the
delegates. After the business, Pres
Durkin asked the different chair
men of committees for reports re
garding the Labor Day celebrate
to be held at Washoe Park Sept.
1887. According to reports, tl.--
years celebration will surpass any
previous celebration. Many floats
beautifully decorated by different
unions will be in the parade, and led
by the Central Labor Councils float
and upon which Miss Yvonne Janas-
ko will stand, representing Labor
and Justice. This float will not
compete for the very generous cash
prizes given to floats. The Iron
Moulders Union will have beautiful
decorated float and pertaining to
their trade. A cupola will be erected
on the float and the Moulders will
cast small iron horseshoes on which
will be printed Labor Day" and dis
tributed along the line of march.
The Butchers Union will have an
elaborate float, as will the Painters
Union, Electricians Union, Plasterers
Union and Hod Carriers Union. Also
a float will be entered from the
Common Laborers Union. Several
other unions will have floats and the
parade committee has been prom
ised several elaborate floats from
business firms and automobile and
truck agencies.
The High School band will be in
the parade, which will add plenty OF
good music and their alluring uni
forms. Also the B. P. o. Elks drum
corps will be in the line of march.
This drum corps won national hon
ors at the last Ells convention. The
committee are hoping the Eagles
drum corps will also be in the line
of march.
Practically all of the twenty eight
unions have signified their intention
of parading. All in all it looks like
the fine parade will give the cele-
bration a bang-up start.
The Riddles Treat, which will fol-
low at the park will be more elab-
crate than in previous years and
all the kids in attendance are prom
ised treats consisting of ice cream,
cracker jacks, candy bars and cool
soft drinks.
