International Typographical Union Funds and Los Angeles Times Case
The International Typographical Union voted to raise 2500 dollars for Philadelphia organization work and allowed another 2500 if needed. It approved publishing union statistics and enabling subordinate unions to incorporate in exceptional cases. The convention backed President Lynch against Commissioner Driscoll in the Spokane and Seattle arbitration dispute, endorsing their course and calling for a code of procedures to resolve underlying issues. The women’s auxiliary urged advertisers to withdraw from the Los Angeles Times, and officers were elected in Omaha and Cincinnati for the 1904 meeting in St. Louis.
