RR R L Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway, Dec. 20. Because a woman cannot become a member of the Barbers’ Union there is blood on Oakland’s moon. The police and | the law courts have been invoked, and all becauie Mrs. Charles Porter cannot join the union. Mrs. Porter is a barber, a barberess, if vou please, and Mr. Porter is a plain bar- ber. After the union had decided that Mrs. Porter was ineligible because of her sex to membership Mr. Porter set his wits at work. He decided the best way for him to gain revenge was by a cut rate pronunciamento. Down went shaves and haircuts accordingly, and they have staid where he put them. A second chapter was added to the story when M. L. Overliss, the Barbers’ Union picket, who was stationed in front of Porter’s shop, caused Porter’s arrest on a charge of disturbing his (Overliss’) peace. Smith to-day Overliss declared that Por- ter had threatened to mop the walks with him. Judge Smith dismissed the case, stating that the evidence was wholly insufficlent. Pays Tribute to Reading Room.
