New York, April 1.-A drug store for the use of members of the International Ladies' Garment Workers' Union has been established by the union's health center. This movement, it is stated, is because the workers are forced to submit to unscrupulous profiteering by druggists. "Through proper buying and by means of cooperation of the various departments, prices charged will be but a small percentage of the usual charges at a drug store. Because we can replace profit motives by that of service, our charges for prescriptions will be at the rate of 25 and 35 cents for prepared prescriptions, the latter sum to be charged for the more expensive drugs," it is stated. "The union health center's drug establishment has now a full line of drugs, and is ready to ill all prescriptions at the rates stated above. "It is not our intention to limit the filling of prescriptions to those of our own doctors. We will be ready at all times to fill the prescriptions given to our members by any other physician. "The drug store will be in charge of a registered, competent druggist." The union label is a priceless gift of power and helpfulness. COOLIES FOR HAWAII OPPOSED BY LABOR. Washington, March 30.-The revival of a campaign to admit Chinese coolies into the Hawaiian Islands has caused the executive council of the A. F. of L. to "reaffirm the protests and declarations of the A. F. of L. conventions against the admission of Ori ental labor into the United States, its territories and possessions." For nearly two years, the council says, there has been an intensive agitation in Hawaii to import 50,000 coolies and place them under bond, "thus making them debt slaves for five years or less if they become rebellious." This agitation has been carried on by Hawaiian sugar planters and pineapple growers who have expended large sums to send agents to Washington to prevail upon congress to enact the necessary legislation. "While the scheme, when first conceived, was for the importation of Chinese coolies to work in the sugar and pineapple industries, it has now shifted so that coolies are being demanded for the rice fields, thus disclosing the false pretense." The resolution against this coolie impor tation closes with the declaration that "the A. F. of L. will exercise every influence to defeat this most un-American movement of the planters of Hawaii." COSTLY UNION BUSTING. Buffalo, N. Y., March 28.-The union smashing policy of the International Railway Company is proving most costly, according to a report to the state public service commission. The report shows that for the quarter ending September 30 last, the first three months of the strike, there was a net loss of $2,618,919. During this quarter the company carried 5,674,972 passengers, whose fares mostly went into the pockets of the strikebreakers. In the previous quarter, before the strike started, the company carried 38,488,198 passengers. The company is attempting to smash the Street Car Men's Union and install a com pany "union." Organized street car men throughout this country and in Canada are alert to the significance of this move and are aiding the strikers. The service the company now offers is indicated by the 793 accidents the first six weeks of the present year. Officials of the company are at their wits' end to excuse this condition. They now blame "slippery tracks," and are fearful the state will take action. The aim of the union label is to advance all those who toil. The value of the union label is the use we make of it.

STAY AWAY Twin Cities D. C. No. 22 (St. Paul and Minneapolis) ask that traveling members stay away from the Twin Cities and not be misled by advertisements regarding the possible construction of the Ford plant in that vicinity. No work has been started in connection with the erection of a Ford plant. Traveling members of the Brotherhood are warned not to pay any attention to advertisements coming from land speculators and promoters at Kelso and Longview, Wash., in regard to the enormous amount of building being done there. There are plenty of local men idle there and our local union is having trouble regarding wages. No clearance cards accepted. As members of L. U. No. 214, Sioux City, Iowa, are on strike for better conditions members of the Brotherhood are advised to keep away from this city until conditions are adjusted. No clearance card will be accepted. Traveling members of the Brotherhood are requested to stay away from Cleveland, Ohio, as there are several hundred local men now idle. Pay no attention to adver tisements as conditions in Cleveland are not as promising as they are reported. Traveling members of the Brotherhood also are requested to stay away from Emporia, Kans., as there are several hundred local men idle there. Disregard all adver tisements, which are very misleading.
