He even criticizes in his own paper the hardened. artificial bureaucratic manner in which the department at present enforces the law. I believe in his wisdom. I would rather follow his judgment than that of the active leaders of labor unionism. and I say in this connection that the great rank and file of the laboring men of this country have never declared in favor of this bill. They have never had a referendum of any sort or form on this literacy test. The leaders. as I have shown. are divided. and the rank and file have never yet considered it.
