THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 1921. UNIONS OPENLY DEFY COURTS IN INJUNCTION CASES American freedom, and of American in stitutions, it is compelled to adopt this course, be the consequences what they may." In paying their compliments to the open shop movement, the labor leaders flay what they call reactionary, indus trial autocrats, unscrupulous pirateers of finance and employers "who have en- Joyed their might In a campaign which they have been waging rigorously since the signing of the armistice, a cam paign for a shop that, shall be ; "closed against union . workmen." The labor leaders call this movement an attempt to destroy trade unionism. - What might be termed labor's bill Of rights is affixed to the statement calling for public supjport and recognition of the right of working people to organize Into trade unions; the right to and practice of collective bargaining; to work and to cease to work collectively; to bestow or withhold patronage collectively, and the exercise of collective activities in fur therance of the welfare of labor. Everything for Cash Everything for Less I z TfsnfcndSse of eJMeritrOnbT THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL. PORTLAND, OREGON 0 D Wwhlngton, Feb.t 24. Organized labor defied the Industrial court mym tem, advocated a flat refusal on the part of labor to recognize or abide by the term of injunctions and de nounced the so-called open shop movement in a declaration and ap tm.i to the American people issued r - - Wednesday. The 21-page document was issued by "the officers and other representatives of the national and international trade unions of America assembled in the executive council chamber of the Amer ican Federation of Labor." BETWEEN TWO FIRES "American labor." says the; statement, "today stands between two converting destructive forces, assailed and attacked by the conscienceless autocrats of In dustry and the followers of European radical fanaticism. If either of these wins, the doors of democratic freedom and opportunity can never be re-opened In our time." . . Judge-made law is condemned by the labor leaders, who claim that the un restrained use of the Injunction menaces the stability of America's economic struc ture. "For six years," they assert, "the Clayton act checked the abuse , of the writ of injunction. A majority of the justices of the- supreme court have wept away this strong barrier against a feudalist legal concept and labor finds -itself again at the mercy of an '.unlim ited use of judge-made law. HELD rJiCOSTITtJTIOXAl, The injunction aa it is now used and 'abused in labor disputes lis without sanction either in the constitution or in the fundamental law of the land. It is a pure usurpation of power and au thority. The only possible and practi cal remedy in the face, of a power. so usurped and so completely unjustified lies in a flat refusal on the part of la bor to recognize or abide by the terms of Injunctions which seek to prohibit the doing of acts which the workers have a lawful and guaranteed right to do. or which seek to compel workers to do those things which they have a law ful and guaranteed right to refuse to do. Tills is the only immediate course through which labor can find relief and this course It purposes to pureue. "Labor realizes fully the consequences of such a course, but in the defense of 5r5 M.ZM I U I "J r"s rJ. 5 1 S M "Tff$f""s P Mi? i 1 B I 3 1 r' HrlML Prosperity Is Made Up of Payrolls MUTUAL welfare in a city like Portland consists of passing prosperity from hand to hand.
