Appeal Granted to Labor Leaders in Bucks Store Case
Washington June 19 Chief Justice White granted an appeal to the Supreme Court for Samuel Gompers John Mitchell and Frank Morrison labor leaders convicted of contempt of court in the Bucks Store and Range case. The appeal will be heard after October. The three officials were held in contempt by the District of Columbia Supreme Court for violating an injunction against boycotting the Budta Stove and Range company. The Supreme Court of the United States set aside all sentences because contempt proceedings were in the store’s name. A district court committee later brought contempt actions in the court’s name and imposed similar sentences. The Court of Appeals recently reduced penalties to one month for Gompers and $199 fines for the others. Applications for a review had been pending in the Supreme Court.
