Mr. Gompers will make a speech Tues
CAV night, in which he will probably
tell his auditors OF the observations he
made during his European trip.
In regard to the proposed international
labor union, Mr.. Gompers said that
there will be no action on this until
the International conference in Bud
spest, in 1911. II was discussed at the
Paris conference in August, which he
attended, and will be threshed out in
the meantime by labor organizations
in many parts Of the world.
Studies Factory Conditions.
Mr.. Gompers told a Munsey News Ser
vice representative that he visited
many factories and shops in Europe,
and was amazed at the growing
strength OF the organization idea there
Unions abroad, he said, had done a
great deal TO lessen poverty and dis
content. In Germany the union idea
is growing rapidly. The work of the
American Federation OF Labor has been
closely studied by foreign economists,
and the thinkers among the laboring
class. While abroad. Mr.. Gompers saw
the suffragettes iS action in London,
and watched them ciUsely: he was in
terested 20 hear that they intend TO
take an active part in the New York
municipal campaign, and had already
prepared 70 ask the candidates perth

Should Be No Distinction.
There should be equal pay for equal
work he said. ''The attitude of the
American Federation OF Labor has been
sympathetic toward the suffragettes in
so far as their contention OF an equal
wage IS concerned If two persons do
a certain work, each equally well. there
should be no distinction in remuner-
alton. simply because one wears skirts
and one trousers.
Mr.. Gompers said he had not yet read
all of the speeches that President Taft
had made on the present trip, but de-
clared that he intended TO do so. He
said he approved Of the extracts from
many Of the speeches which have al
ready been brought to his attention.
