FEDERATION OF LABOR.
Tbcy Are Opposed To All Wars Of Con
quest Wherever Waged.

DETROIT. Dec 19-The significant fea-
ture OF the eighth day Of the Fedora
ii0n of Labor Convention was a stand
taken this afternoon in opposition TO all
wars of conquest. The delegates, repre-
sentative of probably f,J00eD members
Of labor unions. voted unanimously that
such wars "whether waged iu AREA. tne
philippines or elsewhere" greatly endan-
ger the liberties Of the conquered people
The declaration closes with a reitera-
ton Of a sentiment previously adopted IN
another form. viz. THAT We are opposed
In any increase Of the standing army ot
the United States beyond 5000 officers
and enlisted men,"
Tho executive council of the Fedora
tion was directed 90 use every means 10
carry out these sentiments.
Resolutions were also adopted declar-
ing against slavery or seridom by owner
shin or contracts under the jurisdiction OF
the United States.
That part of President Gcmpers speech
relating to trusts was endorsed by the
Committee on the Presidents Address.
As TO President Gompers' eNpleSsloiii.s
upou "our new possessions and mill
farism" the committee deplored lha
ever-spreading entertainments being made
unon civil and religious liherties.' when
il regarded as "a step backwards IN the
evolution OF freedom. which IS frausht
with great danger
The declarations made by those IN au-
thority. concerning forcibe extension OF
territory for the alleged purpose OF eN-
tending commercial interests. were stateH
to he only means for subiugation OF the
inhabitants.
Tho convention adopted unanimously the
,or,nittee's resolution against such eNtfn-
sions. The convention voted ~ raise 10 ~,
salary Of the president from $500 10 $-,lV''
