CARPENTERS’ UNION TO BUILD MRS. JONES’ HOME BY FRED L. BOALT. “Shall Mrs. Jones live in a scab house Loud cries of “Not w Who will build it?” Full chorus: “We will!” What is a labor union? A labor union is an organization of workingmen, all belonging the same craft, who are banded together for the purpose of compelling their employers to pay adeqcate wages under decent conditions What does a labor union do if the employers refuse to meet its demands? It declares a strike, establishes picket lines, beats up blacklegs and scabs, and gives standpat orators material for discourses on the danger of inciting the evil pas- sions of the unthinking mob.

We need more money, We have $300 in hard cash, almost enough material, and more labor than we need. But $300 will not buy the lot.
