There are twenty-one uniona of tha

a membership of orer 25,000.
aaka of money mea and public officials
hare stolen the power from the people
and rested It In tbemsetrea.

waa the one granting freedom of
worship, free speech and a free' press,
freedom of assembly gnd the right of
petition. No one. wants the freedom
of speech to preach treasoo. By free
dom of si-eerh we want the right to
criticise, the right to glTe rent to pro

could come to our people would be to
attempt to shut off freedom of the
press and speech. "
Unien Label Shea.
A new shop managed by women-fot
the aale of article made for and by
women has been opened in New Tork.
It Is known as the Label, beraone each I
article sold In the shop will be marked I
with a label showing that the condl
tJons under which it was made are
considered fair to the employee. Miss I
Elisabeth Dutrher. a Vaaaar graduate I
and chairman of the label committee!
of the Woman's Trade union; Mlae
Carola Woerhoffer. a Bryn Mawi
graduate and a magazine writer; Mrs.
M. Brtdvman. secretary of the Con
sumers league, snd Miss II . C. Eck

The object f the shop. It la stated. Is
not to make money, but to make It
easy for persons Interested in social
betterment to buy goods w!?i the ap
proving label.
The Sis Day Weak.
The value to labor of the preserva-
Uoo of Sunday as a day of rest Is em
phasized by James Lynch, president
of the International Typographical un
ion. In one of his recent publicity let
ters. II states that In the printing
trade, where the seven day week waa
formerly In vogue and waa abolished
by, requiring members who were em
ployed on a seven day schedule to give
one day each week to the Brut obtain
able substitute, the wages for a sil
day week are now In excess of the
wages formerly paid for the seven day
week. He alxo states that the Ger
man branch has reduced the days
rrom six to Ore. with similar results.
President Lynch believes a movement
toward sn open Cunday Is a move
ment for long bourn and I against
tna interests of labor. , .
