Opposes Labor Bill Pledges to Defend Open Shop Rights
The Citizens' Industrial Association of America protests a reshaping of the Shennan anti trust law and any anti injunction bills. They sent a petition to Vice President Fairbanks and Speaker Cannon asserting the measure would benefit few and threaten workers and free citizens. The association defends the rights of nonunion workers and objects to laws they say would empower labor managers to coerce wages or restrict work. The petition urges Congress to reject any law that harms constitutional rights or enables intimidation by organized labor.
