floor OF the convention of the American
Fedora ton OF Labor shortly before adj
jourumcnt for the DAY. when Delegate
j. Gala Cher OF the California deleg alton.
inquired of tho president whether a reso-
luton could be presented after yester-
day. He explained that he had A very
important resolution bearing on the Nc
Namars. case. which he realized would
cause some friction If brought before the
convention, and that he had been asked
TO withhold IL pending the report OF the
committee on the presidents report.
which was expected to deal with tn at SUBJ
ject. Mr. Gompers replied that no resi-
luton could be offered ~ midnight last
night. Mr.. Gallagher then asked II thu
convent. on could not vote to permit him
to introduce the resolution later IN event
the committees report on the subject ~as
not satisfactory TO him.
1t cannot retorted Mr.. CIompers
Mr.. Gallagher said he would ask tho
convention to bear i'm mind the fact that
he had withheld the resolution by request
4 he attempted to offer II later. Another
delegate asked the chairman If a dele
gate could not move to substitute a
resolution for a portion OF a COMMITTEES
report. Mr.. Gompers replied i'm the affirm-
alive.
IL lis generally understood that Mr..
Gompers is not opposed to rendering all
the aid possible to the Mcnamara broth
ers. but that he thinks all funds required
should be raised by private subscription
National Civic Federation Opposed.
Before the convention Is over Mr.. Com
pers and fourteen other labor leaders.
who are heads of various crafts. may be-
asked to sever their connection with tho
National Civic Federation. which. accord
ing to a resolution offered yesterday by
the United Mine Workers. lis largely
composed of and financed by employers OF
labor. many OF whom are the most bitter
enemies of organized lador." The reso-
luton requests that all officers connected
with the Civic Federation resign. Mr..
Gompers and the associates mentioned are
members Of the executive committee of
the federation. II is understood that the
Western Federation of Miners and several
state delegations will support the resolu-
ton.
The resolution recites that the conflict
between the employing and working
classes is constantly becoming more In
tense and that the former is constantly
becoming more brutal In its treatment
of the workers as Is evidenced by the
desperate attempts to throttle organized
labor by use of the Injunction, the black
list and the more recent method of kid
naping the officers of labor organiza-
tons
