J C Shanessy general organizer for the Journeyman Barbers International Union told members of the Atlanta Federation of Trades to avoid actions harming labor’s principles. He praised the Labor Forward Movement’s two weeks of effort, urged patronage of union-labeled goods and union employers, and criticized nonfederal labor members relying on committees. He linked labor buying unlabeled dry goods to harming workers, citing Barnum’s remark on being humbugged. He noted a press session and a committee inquiry into city schoolhouses condemned by the Woman’s Club.
