M. while sons of family craft discharge, asked a restraniing order This has just been denied on the ground that neither State nor Federal law prohibits the succession agree- ment The closed union is a device that can contribute to higher cost of production through making it neces- sary to pay overtime at a higher rate. It limits a man’s freedom in taking up a trade. It has the =ffect producing an unnatural shortage of skilled labor in some lines, and such as might be the case in the | building trades today if high labor and material costs had not already produced a buyers’ strike against housing. Meanwhile the average age of the workers in such a restricted trade may rise until the members are old men, past the age of vigorous production. The result is, in general, a form of monopoly that is an affront to the principles of free choice of a means of livelihood and damaging our economy.
