SOME HOT FIGHTS EXPECTED
AT A. F.-OF L. MEET

AT A. F. OF L. MEET
Seattle, Wash, Nov. 6.-The adj
vance guard of what is expected to
be the largest and most important
gathering of labor leaders the coun-
try ever has known is assembling in
Seattle today. The occasion is the
33d annual convention of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor, which will
be opened here Monday morning with
Pres. Samuel Gompers presiding.
Nearly one thousand delegates, rep
resenting more than 100000 skilled
workers of the United States and
Canada, are expected to be in their
seats when Pres. Gompers calls the
great meeting to order. More than
125 great national and international
labor organizations, consisting of
$1,000 local unions, will be repre-
scented.
The coming meeting is fraught
with deep significance toward both
laboring men of the country and the
great political parties. One undercur-
rent which may break above the sur
face is a proposition to form labor
party in this country. Many are
clamoring for this to be done imme-
diately. Others, and they appear to
be in the majority, expressed them
selves today informally, as being
more inclined to hold back this year
to give the Wilson administration
chance to show what it is going to
do. However, the matter has advanc-
ed so far that there has been much
talk of appointing a committee to
confer with the Socialists on the sub
ject of a labor party. The Socialists,
it was understood today, would
unanimously favor such a PROPOSE
ton, provided, of course that it would
not mean elimination of the individ
uality Of the Socialist party.

The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1913-11-08

Qay IN the radical camp. MAX Hayes,
who polled 5000 votes as a candidate
for president last year against the
1000 given to Gompers, declared
today that he will not run again this
year. But, he intimated, that when
the right man is chosen to oppose
Gompers he will tooth and nail for
him. The turning of one big union
against Gompers, in the opinion of
Hayes, will defeat the present incum-
bent for reelection. While the So
cialists who are leading the opposi-
ton to Gompers are Tar from being
sanguine of success as to electing
their choice for president, they do
believe that in the matter of minor
offices and representation on the
executive council their chances are
good.
A hot fight, it was declared today,
is looked for over the proposition to
combine number of the big Internal
tional unions. The radical wing, sup
ported by many who oppose them in
other matters, will urge the amalga-
nation of internationals of journey
men tailors, ladies garment workers,
men garment workers, hatters and
neckwear workers into one big inter
national There is a sharp division
of opinion on this matter, and there
is much evidence that some bitter
ness will develop when it is brought
formally before the convention.
One matter, which no doubt will
have the solid backing of all factions,
will be the proposition to back up the
big strike of the coal miners in Colo
RADIO and of the Western Federation
of Miners who are on strike in Calu-
met, Mich. Money undoubtedly will
be appropriated for the immediate aid
of the Calumet copper miners.
A big idea that Max Hayes will
spring, according to information here
today, is a proposition that the Amer
lean Federation of Labor give inan-

TEACHERS LONGEVITY
PAY QUESTION UP
Comptroller of Treasury Is Asked by
Commissioners to Reopen
Case.

The District Commissioners yesterday
requested Comptroller r. ]. TraceweIl. OF
the Treasury, for a reopening OF the
whole question Of longevity pay OF teach
ers in the public schools.
Under the present law teachers ap-
pointed to a lower class on returning
from an authorized vacation or reduced
in position are entitled only to the basic
salary Of that class without longevity
pay regardless of previous length of
service.
The Commissioners contentious in be-
half Of the teachers are contained in the
fifteen-page typewriter request for
warded to the Treasury yesterday. II is
their contention that when a teacher re-
turns from leave of absence and again is
assigned to duty In the schools calling
for the same salary she was receiving
at the time of her leave OF absence was
granted should be entitled not only TO
the basic salary in that class, but in
addition whatever longevity her expert
ence in the schools entities her TO.

CENSUS REPORT
WORK OF MANY
Director Of Bureau E. Dana
Durand Had as Collabora-
tors 10000 Persons.
STATISTICS ARE VARIED
Volume Is Probably the Most Unique
Among the Millions Of
Books.

A bird s-eye view of the number, COM
POSITION, and characteristics of the
American people and of their manifold
activities in agriculture, manufactures,
and mining is given in the Abstract OF
the Census Just issued by E. Dana
Durand, Director OF the Bureau of the
Census in the Department of Commerce
and Labor. This comprehensive volume
contains informal ton OF value in connec-
hon with almost every important eco
nomic, political, and social question con-
fronting the people of the United States.
The abstract is a volume OF about $50
pages. 1t contains digested and con-
densed information as to the number and
geographical distribution OF the nearly
81 OOO,0 900 inhabitants OF the country, their
race, nativity nativity of parents, sex,
age marital condition, state of birth Of
natives and country of birth of foreign
inhabitants, citizenship. school attend
ance, illiteracy, dwellings, and families.
1t shows the number, acreage. and value
of farms; the number and value of live
stock; the acreage, production, and value
of the various crops, and the production
and value of dairy and other farm prod
ucts. II contains statistics regarding the
manufacturing. mining and quarrying
industries, showing capital invested,
quantity and cost of materials, wages,
and other expenses. quantity and value
of products, number of employees, and
other important information. Statistics
on all subjects are presented for every
State and where applicable for every
large city. Throughout the volume are
maps and diagrams illustrating the
tables.
The present abstract is a decidedly
larger volume than the abstracts Of the
census OF 1880 and 1900 This is partly due
TO the fact that for nearly every impor-
tant subject comparative statistics for
one or more preceding censuses are pre-
sented. while the earlier abstracts con-
tained relatively few such comparative
statistics.
The introduction to the abstract con-
tains a brief description of the methods
Of taking and compiling the census.
Probably no other volume in existence
anywhere in the world has had SO many
collaborators in its preparation. A null
titude of supervisors. enumerators. spe-
Cial agents, and clerks, with the assist
ance of modern recording machines, have
contributed to it. The supervisors nu-
bered $50. the enumerators 10000 and the
clerical force in Washington, at its max
imum, $500
