LABOR AND
THECOURTS
Rv HERBERT S. THATCHER
Assoiate AFL General Counsel

II
The administration OF justice by the
courts touches the vital interests OF
everv citizen. Organized labor is espe-
cially concerned that our federal courts
be kept on the highest plane.
In years past, while labor was IN the
early stages Of organization, the trade
union movement took a terrible beating
from the courts. 1t was simple thing
for an employer to get court inlunc-
tion paralyzing the activities OF labor
Unions Such injunctions were even
used to prevent unions from supplying
food TO starving workers who were
locked out
LEGISLATION cured that major evil. To-
dav an entirely different picture pre-
sents itself Today labor looks to the
courts and frequently has been com
pelled to depend upon the courts to de-
fend its basic rights and freedoms IRON
invasion by anti-labor legislation. In
recent years the wave of repressive leg
islation enacted in many states to ham
string labor has been broken by en-
lightened federal court decisions.
One of the reasons for this change was
tbe appointment of more liberal judges
TO the bench. In the old days only
wealthy corporation lawyer contem-
Mating honorable retirement, could al
ford TO serve on the bench because the
remuneration was too low to attract
Younger men with a broader outlook.
Also there were occasional instances OF
dishonest politicians seeking judicial
office in order to enrich themselves by
graft.
No one in America wants to go back
to those days. Public confidence in our
government requires the highest stand
ards Of integrity and ability for our fed
eral courts.
Labor fears that these standards are
now endangered by the pitifully low
salaries still prescribed for judicial Of
flee. Too many of our best judges have
been forced to resign from lifetime ap-
pointments because they could not get
along on their low pay.
For these reasons, the American Fed
Grafton of Labor urges favorable action
by Congress on pending legislation to
increase the salaries Of the federal ju-
dietary all the way from the district
courts TO the United States Supreme
Court. 1t is not fitting or proper that
the judges themselves should lobby for
such legislation. But the President has
asked Congress to adopt salary in
creases for judges, and labor is con-
vinced that he is right Members Of
Congress should vote promptly for
higher pay for the federal judiciary.
