It would remove, moreover, many of the objections of the employers who insist that they do not want to con- tribute to the creation of a single labor union in the United States which might at any time, in moments especially of erratic or misguided leadership, have the publie of the country in its grip. Some of the out-and-ont unionists) have been inclined to criticise the, action of their leaders in assenting even to the proposal that any indi- vidual may refrain from joining a labor union if he chooses, declaring that this would only strengthen the hand of the agitators who are trying to gain members for tne |.
