I
INJUNCTIONS TO BE
IGNORED BY LABOR
————————
TACOMA, Oct. 27.—Following
the reque-t of the Seattle Central
Labor Council, we of Tacoma in
the central organization were asked
to aid in a move to do away with
the employment offices in both
cities that arc run by the water
front. employers, but it is believed
in reality it is the Employers’ asso
ciation that controls these rl?e?8.
Wednesday evening, after a heated
<liseu-sion on the question of adopt
ing the Seattle resolutions, it was
finally voted to proceed, and the
secretary of the local council was
instructed to issue a call for a re
ferendum vote, as outlined in the
resolutions below.
The picketing proposition is one
of the utmo t importance to the
union men ol this, state. Our state
supreme court lias decided against
peaceful picketing, but ’lie organ
iz'd workers cf this section believe.
»ii y have net been treated fairly
in the consideration of the picket
ing law. In fact, the law lias been
practically -et aside and we
are told by i lie higher court that
personal property interests may be
engaged in. The decision seems
so unjust that the workers have
decided to make a test of the issue.
The resolution follow
"Central Labor Council of Seattle
and Vicinity, Oct. 1917.
"To the Officers and Member-* of
Local Unions of Seattle and Vi
cinity—Greeting:
"Two very serious matte's are
confronting the unions of th.s city
at this time, tint! the Central Labor
Council has ordered the proposed
action, with regard to each of them
submitted to referendum vote of
the membership.
"The first is to bring pressure
to bear with a view to abolishing
I the so-called ‘hell-hole" of an em
! ploymen. agency, located at 920
| Western avenue, and which :s used
primarily to prevent the unionizing
of the waterfront and incidentally
to furnish scabs to break any
strike called in Seattle of other
points.
“The following resolution was
unanimously adopted and referred
to you for approval o" disap
proval :
“Resolved, That this body in
struct the secretary to immediate
ly canvass all locals affiliated with
the Labor Council for a referendum
vote to stop work on all jobs for a
short period of time to ho set by
a joint committee from all unions
partic ipating, as a proto t against
employment offices operated and
controlled by the Kmpioyers' as
sociation of this city, and io warn
them that a general strike will pre
vail unless these objectionable,
criminal - breeding strikebreaking
balls are abolished.
“Second: In view of the fact that
corporation judge-made injunction
I laws are being u.-ed to destroy all
! labor organizations and our very
I existence is threatened, the council
realizing that drastic action will be' J
necessary to save the situation, j S
unanimously decided to call for a|a
referendum vote of all unions toig
ascretain how many will be willing 5
to, in future, ignore ail such in
junction orders a-s are calculated
to break strikes and destroy orga
nization. You are therefore re
quested to take a vote and imme
diately notify this office of the te
sult.
“Note: The council is also re
questing the State Federation of
Labor to take a referendum vote
throughout the balance of the state
upon tills question of ignoring un
fair injunctions, and an over
whelming vote i. expected to be
east in favor of pursuing what
seems to be the only course left I
for the unionists, if the state is to j
be made \~.afc for Unionism.'
“Fraternally yours,
“JAMES A. DUNCAN,
!
"Secretary."
