WASHINGTON, Dee. 13.-FrOm a
stand in front OF the White House

reviewed the annual parade of the 10.
cal police and fire departments. On
the stand with him were his daughter,

welt boys; General Gillespie, chief OF
engineers; the District commissioners
and many prominent citizens Of Wash

White House, apparently more eager
to see the president than the parade,
and when Mr.. Roosevelt left the stand
500 or 600 school children invaded the
White House grounds and followed
him to the door of the executive man.

ings Of the convention of the Amcri
can Federation Of Labor. 4 busy day
had been mapped out for the delegates,
and, although much business was dis
posed Of. there was considerable time
consumed in specchlnaking. The negro
problem in the south, so far MS it re.
jectcd into the proceedings, and the
long standing conflict between the 30.
cialists and trades uniOnists promised
to mOnOpoliye the attention of the dele
gates had the socialists replied to the
trades uniOnists. The question of or
ganizing common laborers into ma
uonal union and that of throwing ont
of unions all organizations allied with
city, state. national or international
unions IL they refuse to affiliate with
the American Federation Of Labor
were also vigorously debated. The so
cialist incident came up at the morn
ing session during the discussion of u
committee report iIldOrsing most of the
recommendations contained In Mr.
Gomper's annual report. ID. II. Hayes
Of Philadelphia. national president of
the glass bottle blowers, and Max
Hayes Of the Cleveland Central Labor
union. the well known socialist, made
speeches, strongly urging the enforce
ment of laws prohibiting child labor.
The latter during his remarks read
long list of decisions rendered by fed
eral and state courts against organized
labor. A motion to have the list print
ed in the minutes brought President
Gompers, who was not in the chair at
the time, to his feet, and the delegates
were treated TO Il three minute passion

Incorporate the list in the minutes In
that way and suggested that list of
the trades union victories should be
printed along with it, He concluded
by denouncing the "attcmpt to show
that trades unionism is failure and
characterized It as an outrage. A wave
Of applause swept over the convention
as Mr.. Gompers took his seat.
A motion was defeated after W. B.
Wilson Of the miners had spoken along
the same lines as Mr.. Gompers, and
the recommendation Of the president
were adopted, except the one referring
to general defense fund. The COM
