McGregor, registrar of the Combines act, arrived in the city last night to continue at first hand his investigations into the legality of the Amalgamated Builders' council, on behalf of the federal 'department of justice. This was the latest development at the close of the thirteenth day of th strike of 450 plumbers and steamfitters in shops of the To- ronto Society of Domestic, Sanitary and Heating Engineers, Since May 1 the local union has had an agreement with the A.B.C. Union officials were as dete: mined as ever last night that they would not break the agreement with the 0.B.C., they stated. A sum estimated at around $4,500 was received by the union offic- ials yesterday from the internation- al offices to pay the strikers. Further substantiation of his claim that the A.B.C. was legal, was offered last night by W. F, O'Connor, K.C., Mr. O'Connor stated that. recently Mr. Louis Singer presented exactly the same constitution and charter as em- bodied in the A.B.C.. only for the clothing industry, to the depart. ment of justice at Ottawa. They were refused a charter under the trades union act because the secre- tary of state termeq it a legal or- ganization. This bore out his statement that an organization must be illegal to get a charter under the trades .union act, he said. The 'trades union act was to protect such organizations of workers and employers. He point- ed out that only an organization which is technically illegal can be registered under. the act, IMPROVEMENT IN DAIRY STOCK Annual reports of the supervis- ors in charge of the three cow-test- ing routes in the district. of Chilli- wack, B.C, show that in three years the number of cows on test in the Chilliwack association has increased from 350 to 1,350, a. gain of 1,000 cows.
