Edwin Selvin’s editorial attacks Closed Shop Labor Unions as un American and Bolshevik Syndicate driven. It pledges a national educational campaign to dismantle what it calls the labor monopoly while defending workers who resist union membership. It frames labor leaders as foreign and anarchist and calls for Americanism and industrial democracy.
Startling revelations about Jim Osborne one of the leaders in the attempted revolution will be printed in Business Chronicle. Osborne a member of the Metal Trades Strike Conference Committee is described as a labor leader on the inside who urged conservative action. He was suspended from the Union for 99 years and replaced by an alien who has lived in the United States 25 years and seeks the presidency of the Washington State Federation of Labor. Osborne and 8 E Eddy, suspended for 18 months and fined $500 for showing Americanism, are now on the Business Chronicle staff fighting Bolshevism.
