UNION OFFICIAL
TALKS TO POINT
VISALIA, Cal., April 6.—Shipyard
workers in San Francisco were
charged with barring competent and
needed union men from working on
government contracts, in the annual
address of O A. Tvietmoe, general
secretary of the State Building Trades
Council, given out here today at the
annaul convention of the organiza
annual convention of the organiza
ed labor in California is backing the
government to the limit of its ability
with P. H. McCarthy, president of the
States Building Trades Council a
member of the state council of defense
and the national fuel administration,
Frank C. McDonald, first vice-presi
dent serving on a district draft board,
and the membership generally active
and loyal.
The report said no real shortage of
labor exists in California, no strikes
have been called by unions in the
building trades, and wages in all crafts
and trades affiliated with the organ
ization have advanced, but not in pro
portion to the increased cost of living.
The Russian revolution was pro
nounced “the greatest stride on the
road to freedom since the dawn of
the day when men and women were
enslaved by their fellows.”
Of the shipyard situation, the re
port says:
“It has repeatedly come to the at
tention of your general officers in
the past few months that guilding
tradesmen with a perfectly good paid
up book of many years standing and
a current quarterly working card of
this council cannot secure steady or
permanent employment in the ship
yards.
“Able, faithful, self-sacrificiDg and
willing they stand ready to help build
the ships which are needed to bridge
the Atlantic in numbers sufficients to
safely transport men, munitions and
provisions to drive the enemy back to
its lairs if not to its senses.
^‘But certain local unions and theii
members seem to raise the old juris
dictional objection; in places of wel
coming union men, they look for green
and raw recruits and initiative fees.
“That seems to be a part of the
same spirit which actuates the profit
eers, and not the kind of loyalty tc
the cause, the government and the
nation which should be expected ol
good union men.
“At present there are thousands ol
builders, artisans, mechanics, and la
borers idle in California, and in th<
coming year their numbers will in
crease. A few of them found employ
mont on the reinforced concrete ships
but reinforced concrete constructioi
of ships is still in the experiments
stage.
“By all that is humanitarian ant
by all that we hope let it not be sai<
that the jurisdictional disputes art
hampering the greatest comfort to th<
enemy.”
The report further says:
“Workers have to sacrifice theii
strength and their lives that repub
lies may live and freedom may grow
our soldier-boys on the battlefield and
in the trenches abroad and our me
ehanics and our laborers, mothers anc
sisters, fathers and brothers, and evei
children doing their full dutj? at home
in factory and fields, in shop and yard
for the defense of the country in or
der to fatten the colossal fortunes o
American millionaires.
“If conscription is necessary in de
fense of the nation and the people's
hope of freedom, conscript the eagles
and the double eagles as well as th<
uickles and the pennies.
“Let the fight be all along the line*
against the kaisers and kings, against
money and misery, and for equality
and freedom.
"Emissaries of cheap labor and
long hours; combines representing
alike the Prussian Junkers, the Brit
ish barons and the American gentle
ment have the brazen effrontery to
ask that the standards of labor be
abolished during the war, in spite of
the fact that the British government
and the American government as
: well as other governments have found
• the labor organizations to be the most
■| important factors in the prosecution
,! of the war, and with whom lies the
t ultimate successful victory,
i “If this is to be a war for real dem
| ocracy labor must win.
1 “May we not hope that the workers
1; in the central empires of Europe will
; eie long see that light and assert
1 their rights in the same manner as
their oppressed brothers of the north
east?”

AIRPLANE IS USED
AS AN AMBULANCE
CAIRO, April 9-—The British of
ficial correspondent on the Palestine
front gives an account of an instance
in which an airplane was employed in
actual service as an ambulance. When
C a little mobile force rounded up the
Turkish post at Hassana, on the east
ern side of the Sinai peninsula, one
; of the British soldiers received a
[ wound which necessitated an im
> mediate operation. An airman at
once volunteered to carry the wounded
man to the nearest hospital, forty-four
miles away across the desert. By
this trip the man's life was saved.
