O'Brien as president of the board of delegates. , Justice Truax gave judgment perpetually enjoining the defendant from interfering with Ihe work, business or employment of the plaintiff association or any of Its members. The Injunction forbade the co ercing or obtaining the discharge by any employe of McQueed or other members, by commands, threats, strikes or other wise.

This right is guaran teed to every person of legal age and com petent to contract, under our laws. An employer has the absolute right to say whom he will employ and the employe has the right to say by whom he will be ployed and with whom he will work. Tim right is reciprocal and once that right Is reciprocal and once that right is de stroyed personal liberty Is destroyed and chaos reigns. And If one has the right, acting In his individual capacity, he does not lose it when acting with others cloth ed with on equal right, so that employers may combine and say they will not em ploy persons who arc members of labor or ganizations and laborers may combine and say they will not work for employers who engage any but members of labor organ!, zations.” Justice McLaughlin says that the plncl ple is not different where labor organiza tions are concerned.
