THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS: WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER lo, ML
Every Man Should Save
It is every man’s duty to lvimself and
to those dependent upon him to have some
money in the bank with which to combat
any reverses which might threaten him.
It’s easy to start a bank account—a
few dollars will make a good start, and
after the first month or two of regularly
putting aside a stated amount, you will
be surprised to see how fast the account
is growing,. and will begin to think of
how MUCH, instead of how LITTLE, you
can save.
\
Try this by opening an account with
us TOMORROW.. Your money will be
perfectly safe, it will draw a liberal in
terest, and will be always ready when you
want it.

The Kind You Have Always Bought
DID STORY'OF BRER
FOX POINT A MORAL?
Has the American Federation of La
bor been wiser tljan even Its most ar
dent friends knew?
One Is led to so believe after hearing
and closely analyzing the speech Of
President Gompers at the closo of the
opening exercises In reply to the very
warm welcome extended to the Ameri
can Federation of Labor to this city.
President Gompers devoted a goodly
portion of his speech to a dispassionate-
defense of himself and his co-workers.
Vice President Mitchell and Secretary
Morrison, In their course In the Injunc
tion suit, on which subject he had been
given opportunity to speak by the ref
erence of Hon. C. T. Ladson to the In
junction case.
After stating that they felt they were
right In their course in resisting tho
attempt to muzzle free speech and n
free press, and that they stood ready to
be punished if punished they were to
be, President Gompers then told the
story of the tar baby, saying that per
haps his hearers might And an applica
tion to their case.
It will bo remembered by those fa
miliar with the story ,that Brer Rabbit
saw Bror Fox's tar baby In the road,
placed there to. capture Brer Rabbit.
Bror Fox was in the bushes near by
lying low. seeing, but unseen. Brer
Rabbit saluted the tar baby several
times, and. Of course, received no reply!
Angered at this, be hit It with his right
foot, which stuck. “And.” tho story
runs, “the‘tar baby said nothing and
Brer Fox laid low.” Each time, until
his hind and fora feet and head were
stuck, did Brer Babbit vent his anger,
and each time, for live times, tho author
repeated that “tbs tar baby said noth
ing and Brer Fox laid low.”
Mr. Gompers repeated this wording
of the author in telling the story, laying
a seeming stress on the 1 words that the
’’tar baby sold nothing and Brer Fox
laid low,” and at tho conclusion said
the analogy was to be found In the de
fendants being the tar baby. Justice
Wright Brer Babbit and the.armerican
Federation of Labor Brer Fox
It will be readily called to mind that
the American Federation of Labor has
not been drawn Into tho matter at all
by record, save to back the defendants
morally and financially.
Many of Mr. Gompers’ hearers of
Monday are wondering If he meant that
the American Federation of Labor as a
body would continue In the case to en
act the role of Brer Fox.
RESUME OF GROWTH _ _

The gradual but sure growth of the
American Federation of Labor year by

twelve years gradual and then In six
years It bounded forward rapidly, and
then It became gradual, but sustained

In co-oporatlon with Jasper Wyldlng,

It was during his work In that city
that a labor temple was projected, and

TERRY HA8 PRODUCED
RESULTS IN THE SOUTH
W. E. Terry, of Washington, D. C.,
district organizer for the American
Federation of Labor, who to now locat

at the convention. Mr. Terry Is a
member of the Tailors’ union, and ha*
been in the South In his capacity as
general organiser for nearly two years.
At the session of the Georgia Federa
tion of Labor held in Savannah two
years ago that body asked for an or
ganizer In this state, and Mr. Terry,
mory for the oyster roast.
Next to the annual report of Presi
dent Samuel Gompers, the recommen
dations of the executive council sub
mitted Tuesday composed the most Im
portant doctument that has yet corn)
before tho American Federation of La
bor. The executive council’s report was
so voluminous arid exhaustive’of labor’s
many questions, that It requires *<fmc
time for the student to grasp its wide
scope and digest tta many conclusions.
The executive council recommends
the building trades department to re
instate the carpenters, but In the case
of the International Association of
Steamflttera, It recommends that there
shall be one organization of the pipe-
fitting trades, that organization to be
the United Aassoclatlon of Plumbers,
