AT Bombay the crops are reported

Sowing for food products is being act
lively prosecuted. If the monsoon contin-
ues favorable within the cultivated area
crops will fall short only ut Nagpur and

APPEAL 10 WAGEBARNERs
American Federation OF Labor Urges
All WorLingnsen to Organize.

American FeUSrnttOn OF h'iDoE AFBCs
All WorlGingnen to Organize.
Denver July 222.-An appeal TO all
wage workers to organize and federate
has becu issued BY the executive council
Of tie American Federation Of Labor 1t
follows:
Throughout our country a struggle is
raging between the oppressor and the OPP
pressed, the possessOrs of wealth and the
laborCrs. The concentration of industry
and wealth is the order of the day. Ev-
crywhere the workers must suffer disas-
trous results unless they organize and
federate to protect and promote their mu-
tual interests.
"In this combination and concentration
of wealth the possessors permit no sec
tional or state lines to interfere with
their power, and it therefore behooves
the toilers-the wealth producers-to
unite and federate regardless of whether
they are located east, west, north or
south, irrespective of sex, politics, color
or religion. The hope of the workers, the
prayer of all our people for justice and
right and the perpetuation of republican
institutions lies in organized labor.
sRecognizing these essential truths, the
executive council of the American FEEDER
alton of Labor appeals to all wage work
ers of whatever trade or calling to organ
ize unions where such do not now exist,
to join those already organized, to form
unions and international unions of their
respectiye trades and callings and to aftil-
iate i'm one common bond of labor upon
the broad platform and under the proud
banner of the American Federation OF
Labor.
In calling upon the workers to unite
and federate we aim to do no one wrong,
but establish justice for all"
