Wage Assignments
Are Held Invalid
Check-off System, Agree
ments Between Firm and
Men Not Affected
(By Ohio Labor News Service)

Columbus, OH an opinion to
Peter Catri, prosecuting attorney of
Erie County, Attorney General Thom-
as J. Herbert has upheld the illegality
of wage assignments as provided in
the most recent amendment to this
law enacted last year and which be-
came effective June 2, 1889.
The ruling also provides that con-
tracts or agreements between en-
ployers and their employees or as be-
tween employers and labor unions as
to any check-off on the wages of such
employees as may be agreed upon, are
expected.
In the case in question one or two
Sandusky manufacturing companies
have been operating loan associations
whose purpose was to loan money to
their employees and take an assign
ment of their wages the announced
purpose of such companies being to
protect their employees from loan
sharks.
The State Federation of Labor
sponsored the bill passed by the Leg
loldCuIC "dSS
which legislation had for several
years been adopted as temporary
expedient 1t is now permanent and
the abuse which has been a source of
much trouble among working people
has been checked.
The attorney general held that the
most recent enactment on this subject
while it did not carry a repeating
clause did actually serve as a repeater
by implication.
The latter enactment being irrecon-
cilably in conflict with the former
sections which provided for wage as
signments the attorney general held
served to repeal the former sections.
In the Sandusky case the attorney
general held that "the loan associa-
tion is separate entity engaged in
the laudable business of making loans
at cost, but employees are employees of
the sponsoring companies, rather than
the loan association"

Bricker Considers
Special Session
Proposed Of Federation and
Eagles Received. But
Action Deferred
(By Ohio Labor News Service)

(by Ohio Labor News Servlce)
Columbus, O.-Gove1nor John W.
Bricker received from the Executive
Boards Of the Ohio State Federation
Of Labor and the Social Security Com
mittee of the Fraternal Order of
Eagles last week their joint proposal
that the executive convoke a special
session of the Legislature for the
purpose of amending Ohio's old age
pension law.
The Governor discussed Informally
with the two groups in his office for
nearly an hour the history of the aged
pension law, it's operation and the
changes needed which he conceded
would have to be made "sooner or
later"
Governor Bricker' did not promise
that he would call special session
but manifested a great deal of interest
in the proposal and said if session
were called the appeal made by Labor
and Eagles would have great weight.
81 fully recognize" said the Cover
nor "that your organizations are the
original sponsors of the movement foI
old age pensions and anything which
you recommend will be given serious
consideration"
Spokesman for the groups were Mr.
M. j. Lyden, Youngstown, President
of the Ohio State Federation of La
Dor, and Mr.. Charles Sacks, Akron
Chairman of the Eagles Social Sc
curity Committee.
Mr.. Sacks reminded the chief ex-
ecutive that the platform Of his party
committed the administration to a
change in the law which would remove
it from partisan politics, to this end
non-political council of five with
overlapping terms is proposed in a
bill which has been drafted by the
committee and presented to the Gov.
ernor. The bill also provides for in
creasing maximum pensions from $50
to $40 a month.
The Governor told the delegation
that he was in hearty accord with this
program but reminded them that in
the last Legislature there was a
policy to oppose creation Of any new
councils or commissions.
"Sooner or later" said the Governor
"there is going to have to be change
in the amount of the pensions and
will be glad to consider your sug-
gestions."

A New Year Pledge
For Every Worker
Bv I. M. ORNBURN
Secretary Treasurer, Union Ii be !
Trades Department, American
Federation of Labor

Suddenly, a certain Mr.. Merchant
awakened on January l, 1910. After
he had taken his inventory he was
shocked to discover how tremendously
his sales had fallen during the past
year. What was the cause of this =?
All he knew was the serious effect on
his business. p.4i
Just then Bill Worker, union man
dropped in to wish his old friend, the
merchant, the usual "happy and pros
porous New Year" In reply Mr.. Mer-
chant asked Bill to tell him what was
wrong with his business. He wanted
to know why Mr.. Worker and hun
dreds of other Union men in the
vicinity had not been patronizing him.
Bill had the answer. He said, "lt's
because you do not sell Union Label
merchandise and you do not use Union
servicesw Bill had the answer and
gave it. None Of the merchants
other friends had had the nerve to
tell him the truth.
In America, there are thousands of
business men like Mr.. Merchant and
there are millions Of union men who
are union label-conscious like Bill
Worker. Other merchants of this
type will have rude awakening some
day because members of labor unions,
their families and friends are deter
mined to retaliate against unfair
manufacturers and to boycott every
firm that sells non-union goods.
When merchants learn to demand
the union label Of industries that do
not place it on their wares-then
both the manufacturers and merchan-
disers will fare far better. In fact they
will faid if they do not recognize this
growing demand for union label goods
by militant army Of consumer cru
saders who know that collective buy
ing is as formidable a weapon as a
strike against unfair employers.
How much better it would be for
employers if the millions Of dollars
used for propaganda against labor
unions; for espionage and spy sys-
TENS in labor organizations and for
worthless company unions" were
spent in promoting the sale Of Union
made goods Of American workers.
Some business men are beginning
to realize this fact and are cooperat-
ing with A. f. Of l.. Unions. If the
rest of them insist on opposing unions,
let US continue to educate all con-
sumers to buy only union label goods
and use only union services. Then, in
spite of this opposition, we shall save
America.
We shall see labor unions grow,
wages increase, and conditions i'm
prove if all of US will take this simple
pledge in 1910:
81 promise to patronize only those
firms that display the Union Label,
Shop Card or Service Button"

By Aged Benefits
Where Federal Aid Is Less
Than Stute's. Worker Is
Given Difference

Columbus, O.-People in Ohio who
are receiving Federal old age and sur
vivors' insurance benefits are not en-
titled to state unemployment compen-
sation benefits unless the Federal
benefits are less than the state bene-
fits, H. C. Atkinson administrator of
the Bureau of Unemployment Com
pensation, declared today.
Where the Federal benefits are less
than the amount of allowed state
benefits, the amount of Federal COM
pensation is deducted from the Ohio
total benefit amount and the unem-
ployed worker is paid the difference
by this state.
The Ohio law provides that benefits
shall not be paid when an individual
is receiving, or has received, remuner-
alton in the form of old age benefits
under the Social Security Act, as
amended, or similar payments under
any act Of congress; provided that if
such remuneration is less than the
benefits which would otherwise be
due under this act he shall be entitled
to receive for each week, if otherwise
eligible, benefits reduced by the
amount of such remuneration.
For example: person entitled to
$15 weekly Ohio unemployment COM
pensation benefits who was receiving
SIS weekly in old age benefits would be
entitled to receive the difference be-
tween SIS and SIS or $40 per week
from the Ohio Bureau of Unemploy-
ment Compensation.
