Psychologists and publicity men well know the value of popu-
lar figures of speech that have made statesmen and destroyed dy-
nasties.
These forces assisted in fastening the “open shop” fraud on be-
wildered non-union workers. So-called “molders of public opinion”
aided the trick by misrepresentation, patriotic appeals and jargon
about liberty and the Constitution.
The clear reasoning of organized labor finally triumphed and
the public no longer accept the “open shop. " They know its pur-
pose is to deny collective bargaining.
This has forced trade union foes to adopt a new policy. They
pesent the company "union" with all the frenzied energy that mark-
ed their defense of the “open shop,” and prior to that discredited
theory their “right to run their own business.”
,Now the workers are told that the company “union” is em-
ploye representation; that it is the modern substitute for trade un-
ionism. Again is wrong concealed by an alluring term.
These terms have but one purpose—to confuse the issue of
whether workers have the right to unite and select representatives
to negotiate wages and work conditions.
Trade union foes dare not face this issue. If they answer “No,”
they run counter to the spirit of the age. If they answer “Yes’”
they surrender autocratic control over employes.
This they will not do. They are as determined to hold this
power as when they frankly discharged workers who joined a trade
union.
Thus there are three periods in the career of the trade union
foe: First, open opposition; second, the “open shop,” that profess-
ed to treat unionist and non-unionist alike'; third, alleged accept-
ance of collective bargaining by setting up a boss-controlled
“union.”
Let no organized worker believe the trade union foe is grad-
ually coming to his way of thinking ; that he is slowly accepting the
principle of trade unionism.
This employer is more cunning than in the first and second
stages, but he is as determined to maintain his autocratic control.
He merely shifts his method of attack. He is hopeful that the
shadow of a principle will pass for the substance; that his “union”
will check the penetration of organized labor's ideals in his plant.
This employer sees another advantage to his company “union”
—it does not arouse such pronounced hostility, as his his open an-
tagonism. His talk of employe representation has a pacifist, rather
than a warlike, tone.
The trade union foe thus hopes, by smoother tactics, to main-
tain his opposition to collective bargaining. His new system also
dispenses with costly spies in his plant. He can also escape cen-
sure by havng his hand-picked “union committee reject pleas for
work improvements.
Organized workers should continuously expose the ancient trick
of these employers who appeal to emotion, rather than reason.
There is one infallible test that should be applied to the com-
pany “union;” Does it permit workers to unite and to select their
own representatives?
This question can not be answered by platitudes and phrases.

GALVESTON, TEXAS, FRIDAY, MAY 7, 1926.
TRADE AT HOME;
Communities grow in proportion to the support given them by
their residents. You cannot boost Galveston by trading elsewhere
or placing business in other localities that could be placed at home.
Folks who try to save pennies oftentimes lose dollars. The
home merchant is generally honest and offers honest values for
your money. He can’t afford to be otherwise. He depends for his
living from the community and must give the community what it
wants at a fair price. _
When you are tempted to trade outside and purchase “just as
good merchandise at greatly reduced prices,” you should think
twice before buying. If you unfortunately buy unsatisfactory goods
from your home merchant, he will no doubt be glad to make an
adjustment. The out-of-town merchant is not personally interested
in you. He is intent on selling you this once and probably does not
expect to sell you again. He does not have to take great care in
preserving your good will.
More than owing it to your community to trade at home, thus
keeping your money at home, you should give the home merchant
first opportunity to serve you, from a sound economic standpoint.
TRADE UNION FOES NEVER USE CLEAR-CUT TERMS.
