Union Boycott Hit. Temporary Injunction Granted in Bucks Case
Washington reports a temporary injunction against the American Federation of Labor restricting its boycott of the Bucks Stove and Kaneze company of St Louis. Judge Gould’s ruling denounces the federation’s actions as an illegal conspiracy and signals a forthcoming permanent injunction to be sought, with appeal possible to the U S Supreme Court. Samuel Gompers declined to comment, saying he would await counsel and deliberation with associates before deciding on further Federation actions. The piece also notes a separate committee on appropriations facing a need to revise estimates for the next fiscal year.
