The prosecutor declared those bos- ses des rous of employing union labor were obliged to join the masters’ or- ganization. It was explained that Mr. Witherspoon was included in the | dictment because of his attendance meetings in Hettrick’s office. He is President of Bak Smith & Co., one of the largest steamfitting concerns in the country.
