ADDRESS

Organizations or Unions MustNot Be Outlawed

Civil IVnr Aiizinllcd Decision of SnprcmcConrt and Freed the Slavesnt Cot of Ilnnclrciln of ThonmuidHof I iveK Declares A F of ILender In Commenting on Ilnlins Relative to Boycotts

The recent decision of tlio SupremeCourt in the Danbury hatters invblch Jt was held that the boycott estabUshed by the Hatters Union and theAxnorfeafi Federation of Labor was inviolation of the Sherman ntltrust lawis the subject of a significant editorial bySamuel Gompers president of the federa-

tion in the current issue oj organTho article is headed Labor organizations must net bo outlawed and in afoot note ho says

It should he borne in wind that thereis no Jaw not eve a court decision com-

pelling union men or their friends of la-

bor to buy a Bucks stove or range NoNot eien buy a Loewe bat

This is followed by a personal address-to organized labor and friends statingthat In view of the courts decisionwhich must be obeyed regardless ofwhether or not It is Just and of thefact that it the organization andtho individuate composing it liable tomonetary damages and imprisonmentMr says ho feels obliged todiscontinue the publication of the fed-

erations We dont patronize listA SivecnliJK Decision

In the course of tote editorial MrGoMpers that no moro swooping

t farreaching and important decision hadever been Issued by the Supreme Court

The Drod Scott decision he con-

tinues did not approach this in scopeand importance for It only decreed that-a runaway slave could be pursued ifho made his capo Into a free Stateand his return compelled by all the pow-ers of the government to Ids ina slave State

Any person Vho asitj in Iho

be prosecuted before the courts for acriminal offense That c Visiontho fuw negro stave who could makegood their escape from a slaveholdingState The cirtl war annulled the decisionof the Supreme Court and freed theslaves It cost the lives of hundreds ofthousands of brave men on both sidesand emnacinated from chattel400WQO of slaves No man nowpoints to that famous DredScott SupremeCourt decision-

It then goes on to say that a study ofthe decision rovonls some strange pecu-liarltiee among them the fact that thecomplaint of the Loewe Company Is setforth in full while the response of theunion to scarcely referred to that thecomplaint was full of the most glaringinaccuracies and misstatements thatnone of the precedents quoted by the

paralleled the case Quoting fromthe opinion of the reference to the factthat seventy out of eightytwo hat manu-facturers had accepted the terms of theunion and that when tho Loewe Com-pany declined to unionize its factory theboyoott bad been ordered Mr Gompors-eays

The Amazing ViewTho court takes the amazing view that

even the most successful effort of thehatters union to obtain and maintainIndustrial peaco with employers is proofof unlawful is conspiracy

and under the Sherman antitrust lawunlawful and punishable by beingmulcted In damages and by and im-prisonment As a matter of fact neitherthe hatter nor any other trade over at-tempted to coorco all manufacturersagainst their will to mako agreementswith the union Common senso teachesthat a voluntary agreement between anemployer and a union must be a peacefulone All union agreements with employ-ers are voluntary and mutual No unioncould if it tried force an employer toenter into an agreement with it Nounion attempts such unbuslnesslike

The most any union has done is todecline to buy tho products of a firmwhich declined to employ union men andgrant the prevailing rate of wages hoursof labor and conditions of employmentSupposing they wero exorcising their conetltutional right of free speech unionmen have asked their frierids and fellowunionists buy such goods

The court is In error says MrGompers in denying its charge thatthe American Federation of Labor haddeclared a boycott against the LoeweCompany It had never indorsed or de-clared a boycott against the companyIn fact no request for such action In anymanner or form had ever been made tothe federation nr Its officers directly orindirectly by the hatters or any one elseThat company had never been published-in tho Wo dont patronize list of theCourt itself realized the evil consequences

Wo feel it our duty In tho Interest oftruth and accuracy he continued tocall public attention to the error of thecourt in charging the American Federa-tion of Labor with being a party to theaction against tho Loewe Company Wecan hardly believe that tho SupremeCourt itself realized the evil consequenceswhich may follow thIs decision under Itsconstruction of the Sherman antitrustlaw a construction never intended byCongress It may be like the falling pcbmlcs which dislodges the avalanchegringlng ruin and destruction upon all inIts path Should this be the result it wilt

CALL BACK CURRENCY

Secretary Cortelyou Asks 25

WILL AFFECT LARGE BANKS

Treasury Department Take Ilopcfalof KJnnucIal Situation Con

ilitionx in Striking Contrast withThose Prevailing n Year AKOCountry In Healthy Condition

The financial stringency wnlch becausestate Jast December has subsidgl to apoint where the SKrary of tho Treas-ury Justified in recalling approxi-mately 33500ft000 from depositary institu-tions into which large sums were paidnear tho closo of last year to tide overthe panic Secretary Cortelyou is of theopinion that a partial withdrawal of theloaned funds from the hanks into theTreasury can now bo made without harmto the financial interests of the countryWith this end in view he issued the following call yesterday

100000 of funds or in excess thereof awlwhere each withdrawal cam bo made Tritfeoot 5co-Tcnienco to the TYeasary Department In the tiusaction of public business

Payments under call win be mads AS fellowsTen per cent of the amount called en orMarch 9 and the rcmainte 1C per ctrl on or be-fore March 23

The Secretary stated that advises fromall portions of the country aro to tie ef-fect that this proportion of the governmont funds now on deposit with thesenational banks can bo withdrawn withoutdetriment to financial conditions Insection

Fifteen Per Cent of WholeAt the close of business yesterday the

amount of deposits of government moneys in the depositary banks was approxi-mately 240000000 The withdrawals calledfor therefore constitute about 16 per-cent of the whole

The Secretarys action was not prompted by any special need of money bygovernment although the working cashbalance in the Treasury is only about24000000 The withdrawals mean that intho opinion of the Treasury Department-the volume of money In the chief financial centers is now enough to Jus-tify a moderate contraction

While bankers brokers and business-men generally are much at variance as totho causes of the financial stringency oflast year and no two ofthem meeting together to discuss the

will ever agree it is a fact that conditions affecting the use of currency atthe present time show a striking contrastwith those which prevailed a year agoThen business speculation and enterprisewas at flood tide Greater demands uponcapital were being made than ever beforeIn the history of the world Expansion oftrade industry building and enlargement-of facilities were hi the financial air Theattire energies of this country and theworld were abnormally vitalized and con-fidence in the prosperity of the countryand the world amounted almost to madness
