VIII Support the FriendsOf
Labor for Office

Minneapolis, Mimi, Nov. 2L--Amid
scenes Of enthusiasm the American
Federation of Labor holding its an
nual convention here, endorsed the
political policy OF President Gompers
during the last campaign and urged a
continuance Of activity along inde-
pendent lines. strongly condemning.
however. the idea Of aniliating with
any special party and going on record
as opposed to forming a national labor
party
Although the committee on the
presidents report at the opening Of
the afternoon session made a favor
able recommendation regarding active
participation Of workingmen in elect
ing friends Of labor as legislators, 1t
was not until o'clock last evening
that the delegates we're ready to go
on record by casting a vote on the
committees recommendation but
when they did vote it was practically
unanimous in favor Of its adoption.
The committees recommendation
after rcciting that great care had
been given the subject" adds:
1--WE recommend that the action
taken by the officers of the American
Federation of Labor during the last
camfaign be indorsed, and we express
our approval OF the campaign carried
os against the enemies OF labor with
the small means at the disposal Of the
Officers Of the federation.
I'VE regard with pleasure the re-
cent political action OF the organized
workingmen OF the country, and by
which they are determined to exhibit
their political power We are in full
accord Herewith and recommend to
organized labor throughout the coun-
try that they persist in their efforts TO
osganlae as an Independent political
force"
