INJUNCTION AGAINST LABOR IS MODIFIED

Prohibits Mention of Bucks Company In Unfair List Only.

Washington, March 12.—The American Federation of Labor may freely refer to the boycott against the Bucks Stove and Range company of SL Louis except by inclusion in the “We don’t patronize” list.

This, in substance, is the decision by the court of appeals of the District of Columbia in the injunction case of the Bucks company. In a decision by Supreme Justice Gould, the Federation was enjoined from conspiring to boycott the stove company, and from printing or publishing, or distributjng any copy of the “Federationist” or other publication referring to the .complainant. The latest decision, by Justice Robb, modifiies and affirms the decree of Justice Gould. Robb holds that the decree should be modified to the extent that it shall only restrain the defendants from conspiring or combining to boycott, and from printing the name of the complainant, its business or product in the “We don’t patronize or “unfair” lists.
