''If labor is not combined. capi-

laborers constantly enlisting them
against their fellows in their efforts

words are from an article written
by Hon. John De Witt Warner.
We have the worlds experience
behind us. Every combine of
wealth that was successful enough
to get control OF labor has started
in or degenerated into oppression
of labor. and has grown less capable
of being fair or buSinesSllke until
it had to be swept aside as an
obstacle to progress. On the other
hand, every successful combine of

sociation to secure the passage of
such a bill at the next session of
Congress.
The committee on resolutions
amended this resolution by substi-
tutlng for ''such Il law by the next
Congress- the words ':of a law in
the several States prohibiting the
employment of children under lG
years of age"
The committee recommended the
adoption of the resolution as amen
ded. The convention concurred
after long debate.
The stand of the International
Typographical Union for an eight
hours day and the Textile Workers
in seeking shorter hours and more
wages was approved, and the '.no-
wage reduction" policy recommen-
ded by President Gompers was in
dOrSed.
The convention unanimously in
dorsed that portion of the presi-
DENTS report dealing with the pro.
posed eight-hour law, and recon-
mended the passage of the bill bv
Congress:
The child labor resolution, in
troduced in the United States
Senate, calling for an official in
vestigation on the women and child
labor situation in the United States,
was approved and its passage by
Congress recommended. /,
The bill calling for an eight-hour
day for railroad labor was also ap-
proved. The convention officially
went on record as inviting the re-
presentativcs of the railroads to a
joint conference for consideration
of labor questions.
The Anti-Injunction bill was in
dorsed and the injunction plan
scored.
Japanese, Chinese, Korean and
Hindu labor was included in a
sweeping denuciation of Asiatic
immigration, and a demand for
further extension of the exclusion
laws was made.
