PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO THE GENERAL CONSTITUTION SUBMITTED BY L. U. 781, MILWAUKEE, WIS.

State and District Conferences; Their Powers, Duties and Government.

State or district conferences shall be legalized by a charter issued by the Brotherhood. Not more than one charter shall be issued to any state, territory or province. This, however, shall not be construed as prohibiting the formation or chartering of district conferences where no state conference exists.

No charter shall be issued to any district conference where a state conference exists without the approval of the state conference.

The objects of state and district conferences shall be:

(a) The establishment of central representative bodies having jurisdiction in all matters of general interest to the trade.

(b) To promote harmony and unity among local unions within said state or district.

(c) To disseminate information regarding local labor conditions, strikes, lockouts, traveling members and other information of mutual interest to affiliated locals.

(d) To render all possible aid in organizing and gaining new members for affiliated locals.

(e) To enter the political field with a determination to have laws enacted for the benefit of our trade.

All local unions within the jurisdiction of a state or district conference shall affiliate and be governed by the rules of said conference. Failure to be represented except for grievance sustained by the G. E. B. shall be penalized by revocation of the charter of said local union.

Should one or more local unions feel dissatisfied with the management of a state or district conference, they may protest to the G. E. B., who shall decide on questions of law and constitution. A copy of said protest must be filed with the secretary of the conference.

The revenue of state or district conferences shall be derived from a monthly per capita tax for members in good standing in the affiliated locals, the amount to be decided by referendum, a majority of all votes cast being necessary to decide.

No money shall be expended for purposes other than salary of the secretarytreasurer, who must furnish a bond in a sum of not less than $500, stationery, print

ing, supplies and postage; actual and necessary traveling expenses, hotel expenses for those employed to do organizing or other work authorized by the conference except when in their home city. Such employes shall also be reimbursed for actual loss of time. Under no consideration shall monies be paid or bills allowed unless a full detailed report of the expenditures, its purpose and use accompanies said bills.

PH. MORTON COMPANY STILL UNFAIR.

Warning to Sign Painters.

Ph. Morton Sign & Bulletin Company, of Cincinnati, employ non-union men. It is reported at the General Office that this firm has been subletting some of their work to other sign firms who are fair and who employ union men. This is a distinct viola

tion of the laws of the Brotherhood. No member of the Brotherhood can work for the Ph. Morton Company direct or on any work sublet by it without being liable to expulsion. Bulletin Board and Sign Painters when doing work on bulletins or signs must ascertain for whom the work is being done. If bulletin boards are owned by the Ph. Morton Company, District Council No. 12 of Cincinnati must be immediately notified. Business agents and members of the Brotherhood are requested to keep a watchful eye on all bulletin work being done in Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan and West Virginia. Traveling Sign Painters working in other cities than their home towns on bulletins should report to the Financial Secretary or Business Agent of the local or District Council in whose jurisdiction they are employed as to what work they are doing and for whom.

DELINQUENT LOCAL UNIONS FOR The financial secretaries of the locals listed below are not complying with the law requiring them to forward their day book sheets to the General Office. All owe sheets for February, March and April, many for a longer period.

The failure of secretaries to forward day book sheets deprives members of all protection of their right to benefits should their due books be lost or destroyed. Scan the list; if your local is among the delinquents, see that the secretary does his duty or that he is removed from office. Read the law:

The Law.

"Section 131. The Financial Secretary shall receive all moneys paid into the union and shall enter all payments in the official duplicate page day book as furnished by the G. S.-T. He shall forward to the G. S.-T. the duplicate sheet or sheets taken from said book within the time and in such manner as provided in Section 238. Financial Secretaries failing to comply with this

FEBRUARY, MARCH AND APRIL, 1919 provision of this section shall be removed from office by the General Executive Board. ******"

"Section 238. ****** He (the G. S.-T.) shall also establish and maintain a Finan

cial Secretary's duplicate page day book system which shall show the amount of money paid and the dates on which such payments were made by each member. Said duplicate page day book shall be the official day book of this Brotherhood and shall be procured by Financial Secretaries from the G. S.-T. Financial Secretaries shall send to the G. S.-T., without delay by registered mail, and with their monthly reports, the duplicate sheet or sheets taken from said book******.”

The General Executive Board has been patient and wishes to avoid being unnecessarily severe but unless the sheets are immediately forthcoming, the offending financial secretaries will be removed from office, as prescribed in Section 131, of the constitution quoted above.
