Parry, president of tho National As sociation of Manufacturers, today ninde an address beforo tho conferonco 6n'"Mob Spirit in America," in which he again bitterly assailed organized la bpft. Ho said In this country In past years thero has beon mobs of differ ent kinds, but tho most dangerous ot all Is the mob ot organized labor. No man can object to nny kind of associa tion of labor, or other organizations, for. lawful and bonellclont purposes, but organized labor, as conducted to day, stands convicted by Ita own lead ers ns a lawless organization. It seeks by physical force to ovorrldo individ ual rights, Is continually railing against tho laws, denouncing tho courts nnd public officials, and ful fills all the requirements of tho defini tion of mobocracy. Unllko lynching bees, It Is a vlgllanco comraltteo and n standing mob, under fair dlsclpllno by Its olllcers, and ready upon occa sion to commit overt acts of outrage am) destruction, wnlch are tho truo outward manifestations ot mob spirit. It declares, in effect, Its will is supe rior to customs, traditions, govern ment regulations, and oven tho consti tution of tho country. It assorts tho individual has no inherent rights that caiuyn uo taken from him, and. there fore, has a right to say no man shall work, no Industry run without Its consent. In Its attempt to compol recognition of Its pretensions, organ ized labor relies not on reason, but upon coercion, Intimidation and the bludgeon. In Its continual Impeach moms against tho law. constant an peals to tho baser passions, it Is doing moro thnn nny other agency to Incul cate mob spirit, Hnd oncourngo unfurl Ing tho rod flag of annrchy. Aftet quoting different uttornnces of labor leaders, and criticizing, ho contlnued: "Tho nntlon has lost millions of dol lars by organized Idlonoss, nnd tho worklngmon pay millions to agitators, who give, them nothing but trouble- In return.
