Lf - t The -movement la. likely to be em- barraaaing. In a polltk-ai aenae, to tn admlniairatlon, aa It would be, Inevit ably. toanv administration of what- aiatr nolitical oarty. Permission to organise the postal clerks of the coun try Into unions would not be In ac cordance with the prevloua poller of the administration, although there la no hard and fast rale against eucn an organisation. ' '' ; 1 s'. If the President or his Poatmaster Oeneral, Mr. Cortelyou, nhould antag onise 1 openly tha unionising - of 'tbe postal clerka, theadminiatration wouia be . laced In 4he attitude of oppo sition to organlaed labor. In view of the iraent attitude of Samuel Gom Dera. nreatdent of the -American Fed ration of Labor, and home other lead era of organised labor, the making ef such an Issue la not courted by tne President. No regulation of the PostotTice De partment prohibits the clerka In post office from Joining euoh organisa tion as they may care to Join, but they are expressly prohibited, as are all other employaa of the government. from aeekiivg to have their pay.in- crased through aeeociation or or gavlsatlon. ' Frank H. - Hitchcock, acting i-osv idaater Oeneral. aaya ha knows of no reaaon'rwhy the clerka la any .post office should ' not form a union,1 pro vided the rules 'of the organlaatlon do net- tnfrtiure'.uDen the postal reguia tlonav Buch Infringement, of course. eould -not be permitted. .. .. ... , . ' It la elralflcant. however! that Pres ident Oomoera expects, as la stated by the labor leaders In Chicago, to wield, through the postal clerka' anion, an Inftaence upon candidate for Con greaa and upon member of Congretfa after their election. It la stated, fur thermore, that a ehorter work day and Inreaawd bay are twe of the thing the new union will endeavor to bring about. It la, suite evident that tne Drain or Preeldent Oompere has. neen nrea with political ambition. The success of the labor union In Oreat Britain has appealed atrongly not only to him. but also to other leaders of organises labor In the United Btatea and they are hoping. In a few year, to emu late their brethren aoreas the water. The organlaatlon of a anion among postal employe would be a shrewd tactical move In the game of domestic politics and. If successful, would go far toward - forcing a political rec ognition of organised labor.- What the President may think or what ha may do In the matter yet are unsolved queatlona. Ha could put an Inetant end to the unionising of post office employes If he cared to do so, but whether ha will take any eurh action la, at this time, altogether prob lematical. .
