Eighty-eight per cent of the'workmen of Canada who are members of a union belong to a union that is international.

No strike can be declared without the consent of the local involved, nor can a local union declare a strike without the sanction of the ex ecutive except by forfeiting its' right to assistance. The object of the ~union is'to avoid strikes and maintain 1ts agreements inviolate. The other union mentioned the Western Federation of Miners - exists solely at present among the metalliferous mines.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
