MOVE TO GUST GOMPERS
Want New A. F. of L. Head
Mrs. Raymond Robins Asks
Legislationfo Women
Atlanta, Ga, Nov. 17.-Though
the Gompers followers were con-
fident of victory, q movement was
started this afternoon to make
combination between the Social
lists and the Western Federation
of Miners to try to unseat Com
pers and elect new president for
the A. F. of L.
The issue will be made on the
demand that President Gompers
sever his connection with the Ma
tional Civic Federation which he
has refused fatty to do. The So
cialists were angered by reference
in Gompers' annual report to
Rainbow Chasers."
The Gompers men said this af-
ternoon that the anti-civic feder-
alton resolution would be adj
versely reported and beaten on
the floor of the convention. They
predicted sweeping victory for
Gompers.
A resolution was introduced

cal union condemniflg Samuel B.

to take definite action that would
establish a minimum wage scale
for the women.
eAny industry that cannot af-
ford to pay a living wage to its
own women employees is para
site industry, and should be
swept from the face of civiliza-
tion," said Mrs. Robins, who has
been active in organizing the Chi
cago stenographers. "a mini
mum wage law must be secured
through the strength of trades
unionism.
Then, the question of what is
a living wage confronts us. The
stenographers of Chicago have
fixed on wages at $12 week.
They are now organizing for the
fight, and they will win.
I'VE have stenographers in
Chicago who get as much as $50

jority earn less than So a. week.
