SWEAT SHOP UNIFORMS
by a Resolution in the
American Federation of Labor
Convention.

Kansas City~Dec. 13.-The eighteenth
annual convention of the American
Federation of Labor had hardly got
down to business this morning when a,
recess till II o'clock was taken. The
delegates were promptly in their seats
at 8 O'Clock for the second days session
Of the convention. A flood of resolu-
tons, touching a wide range of sub
jects, was introduced by various dele
gates. In each case, without discussion,
the resolutions were referred to appro-
them later.
One resolution of particular interest
was that offered by Delegate Samuel
Autler of New York, general treasurer
of the National Garment Workers
union. 1t called upon the United States
government to give its clothing to union
shops for manufacture instead of sweat
shops. The resolution was given to a
committee. 1t will, it is said, without
doubt be adopted, and a telegram was
sent at once to Washington ma king the
demand set forth in the resolution.
James O'Connen Of Chicago, grand
master of the machinists' union, offered
a resolution giving the machinists juris-
diction over all men employed me-
chanically in the case of linotype ma
chimes. There has been a controversy
between the printers and machinists as
to which union should control this par
ttcular labor. The resolution was re-
ferred to a committee.
A hot fight on it is expected when the
resolution shall be reported back to the
convention.
James Duncan, representative of the
International Granite Cutters, made a
report of his attendance as q delegate
to the British trades congress of Great
Britain last August. Mr.. Duncan de-
clared that the English trades unions
had made splendid progress in securing
legislation looking to reforms along diff
ferent lines.
E. P. Sabine, president of the Ma
tional Garment Workers union, and
Samuel Autler, general treasurer, have
called mass meeting of all the gar
ment workers of Kansas City for Wed
nesday night, when an effort to organ
ize a local union of that organization
will be made
