Minneapolis Delegates Will Support

MINNEAPOLIS May 31.-At a meet.
ing of the delegates from the various
labor organizations and central bodies
Of organized labor, to be held at Alex
anders' hall on Monday evening, reso-
lutions will be adopted favoring the
election of Louis Hanson, the business
agent Of the Woodworkers' union to the
presidency of the State Federation of
Labor. The annual convention Of that
body is to be held on June 10 and II,
and most Of the Minneapolis unions
have already elected their delegates.
It is said that Mr.. Hanson's candidacy
is favored by all the delegates from un-
ions affiliated with the Trades and La
Dor Council, and it is significant fact
that the council has elected both Mr..
Hanson and l.. s. Ogden, president Of
the Woodworkers' union, as two of the
Ave delegates which will represent it
at the convention. It is also believed
that most of the delegates from the
Building Trades Council will favor the
election of Mr.. Hanson. There is said
to be no i'll feeling in that body against
the woodworkers, and it is thought that
his election will go q long way toward
healing the breach caused by the recent
Building Trades Council strike. .!
