POLICY
Of FEDERATION
Shall or Shall Not all Unions
Become Part of AAdl-
lated Body.

Rochester. N. T.. Nov 1s.-The
question whether the American Fed
GRAFTON Of Labor is to adopt industrial
unionism in place of its present policy
OF recognizing, except in certain in
stances, the autonomy of trade or
craft organizations was discussed to-
day in the convention of that organ
ization. Near the close of yesterday
afternoons meeting the committee on
education reported on a resolution for
adoption Of industrial unionism. A
majority Of the committee voted for
Its rejection and a minority report
favored industrial unionism where
practicable and where practicable a
close federation Of trade unions for
unified action.
The resolution was introduced by
John Mitchell. Duncan Mcdonald,
John P. White. Frank j. Hayes. Will
lam Green. ]. H. Walker Of the United
Mine Workers Of America, and is as
follows:
closely drawn between capital and
labor and.

Whereas. the capitalists Of the
Manufacturers association and other
large employers orga anizations, COM
pact. cohesive bodies. having for their
purpose the destruction Of the trades
union movement. and realizing that
in unity there Is strength, therefore
be 1t
Resolved, that in order to combat
these compact and powerful organiza-
tions Of employers of labor. this con-
vention adopts and endorses the plan
Of organization by industries instead
Of by crafts. which often divides the
forces Of labor. and that the officer.
of the American Federation Of Labo,
be instructed to use every effort tt
bring this about and that they visi
the different labor conventions anG
use their influence to mould sentimen,
along these lines"
The majority of the committee de.
sired to substitute for the resolution
the autonomy declaration Of the
Scranton convention in 1901, which
favored retention Of the policy of rec.
ognizing and maintaining craft or
trade autonomy in so far as 1t was
compatible with modern organization
of industry.
Resolutions adopted at the after.
noon session condemned the "private
detectives said to be used to break
strikes in West Virginia: favored the
! development of state universities
along the Wisconsin extension plan;
/ commended the movement for wider
use Of school buildings and urged
their use for labor meetings: COM
mended the work OF the national con.
servation congress an dapproved the
participation by American Federation
of Labor officers in its proceedings.

To Bnry Dead.

London. Nov. 19.-An eight hour
armistice has been agreed to between
the Bulgarians and the Turks at
Tchatalja so that both sides may bury
the dead. according to q news agency
dispatch from Constantinople.
The Balkan states today signified
their willingness to treat for peace
terms at the request Of the vanquished
Turkish empire. The luster Of their
success has only slightly been dimmed
by their temporary failure to over
come the rallied Turkish army at
Constantinople gates and enter the
Ottoman capital.
The stubborn defense, of the Turks
at Tchatalja Notifications and the
realization Of the cholera danger, it is
believed. figured largely in the Balkans
agreement for the negotiations.
That the erm Of the victors will be
harsh Is known but the European pow
ers are doing all possible to make
them less harsh.
