If he is guilty, organized labor as much as anv other element in the social fabric wants him punished, but the trial Judge has stated that he should have a new trial. "Two Investigations have been made of the trial by the United States depart ment of labor representatives and both have condemned the trial as unfair and virtually a frame-up. "There is under consideration a gen eral strike of all organized labor in sup port of the appeal for a new trial. The sentiment in this union is overwhelming ly in favor of taking such action as will secure a new trial, but entirely due to the fact that our union has a valid and equitable contract with the Draymen's association of this city the members at last night's meeting voted to make a final appeal to you.
