Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, May 6.-President Gompers
and the executive council of the American
Federation of Labor are now thoroughly up
in arms against the Debs socialists and the
industrial union which they have started as
rival to the American Federation of Labor.
The federation's executive council passed
resolutions condemning the movement
which were sent to the New York unions to-
day. The eastern unions are warned to be-
ware of the western movement as inimical
to the trades unions and intended to disrupt
them.
new movement which he issued today. says:
1T is not socialism that we have been
called on to combat, but the pernicious- &C
tivity of socialists, who seem to have made
1t their particular mission in life to either
dominate or destroy the trades unions. They
defame and assassinate the character OF
men who dare to defend their convictions
and who stand for the organization Of
trades unions.
us it not fact that one may take up any
soeialistic party publication or hear any
party socialist speak and find that their
chief utteranceS are denunciatiOns and a
TRADE of abuse of trades unions and of the
best known trades uniOniStS? If the social
lists will permit the trades union movement
its full opportunity for development, with
out attempting to make 1t tail for their
party kite. they may disseminate their doc
trines without any protest from US. but SO
long as they pursue their present policy
they cannot enforce our silence"
Mr.. Gompers Is very angry at a Japanese
socialist named Katayama, who was brought
here by the Debs socialists and who at
tackled the American Federation of Labor,
declaring that the eastern unions are not as
progressive as those in the west He char
acteriZes Katayama as "mongrel.'
challenge to public debate on trades
unionism has been hurled at him by Max
Hayes, western socialist. Hayes is one Of
the originators of the anti-American Fed
Grafton of Labor movement. Gompers says
he is ready to meet any one at the proper
time and defend trades unionism.
