tention to make a series Of tests on
this dead timber and also on timber Of
the same kind cut when still alive.
The results of the test will give &C.
curate data to Colorado lumber users
of the comparative strength Of green

Gus Colorado timbers have that build
ers and engineers may know what
they can count ON In using these tim

1t is expected that the laboratory
will be equipped before the end of the
summer and that the testing work will
begin In early fall. In addition to the
testing work carried on at the labora'
tory Investigations Of the wood using
industries in Colorado and neighbor'
ing states will be made. This study
will enable the forest service repre-
sentatives to get into close touch with
lumbermen and other wood users, and
the officials of the university hope
that the plan will work out to mutual
advantage to all.

CONTROVERSIES SETTLED
Two special committees reported a
settlement Of controversies referred to
them. The longshoremen and seamen's
union adjusted their differences and the
factions Of the electrical workers
agreed TO make a complete settlement
OF their controversy at the ST. Louis
convention, January Is, 1909.
The report of the committee on res
olutions in regard to the strike of the
mechanics on the Denver and Rio
Grande railroad was referred TO the
executive council with instructions to
issue an appeal for financial assistance
to all affiliated organizations.
The convention instructed the execu-
tive council to secure good legal advice
for the purpose OF drafting a bill for
an old age pension, To be introduced
either in the legislatures OF the sew
eral states or in congress.
A resolution asking the president to
pardon Jan Pourin, Russian political
refugee. was adopted, and one asking
for assistance in the defense of Ma
gon. Nillarreal, Rivera and other al
legged Mexican revolutionists, under ar
rest at Los Angeles. was referred to the
executive council to bring the case be-
fore the proper authorities.
The only resolution discussed at
length today was one introduced by
Max Hayes of the typographical union,
demanding that work be provided for
the 4,0O00O0 unemployed in the country.
Objection was most seriously made to
demanding assistance and TO the state
ment that 100000 men were unem-
ployed.
The resolution was adopted in an
amended form in which it is urged upon
the federal government and the sew
eral state and municipal governments
that work be provided for the unem-
ployed on roadways, waterways. in i'm
provement of forests and in every other
way possible.
Several minor amendments were made
TO the constitution and at 7:I0 the con-
vention adjourned sine die.
