Washington. Nov. 21.-There will

during the holiday recess Of congress
he would take 10 days vaaction.
The president will &C South to sumo
quiet place where he can play golf
and enjoy the seclusicn and privacy

been received for the president to 60

lieved he has not made up his mind
just where he will go.
The White House issued the fol-
lowing statement:
THE usual New Years reception
will not be held on January 1, 1914.
The departure from custom on this
occasion Is due to the fact that the
president will not be in Washington
at that time. Owing to the long ses-
sion Of congress the president has had
no vacation since his inauguration.
AS the approaching session OF COM
gress will be the long session the only
opportunity for the president to Sc

Seattle, Wash, Nov. 21.-The
American Federation Of Labor today
refused to adopt q resolution con-
demning armed Intervention in Mex
leo on the ground that such interven-
ton might be justifable and desirable,
The convention unanimously adopted
the following resolutions:
THE American Federation Of La
Dor condemns attempts being made by
American and foreign corporations
and certain jingo newspapers to force
armed Intervention by the United
States government in Mexico and
urges upon the president OF the United
States that the continuance of a pol
icy looking to a peaceful adjustment
Of the conflict among the Mexican
people and that the president and Sec
retary Of the American Federation Of
Labor be instructed to transmit the
position Of the federation upon that
matter to the president of the United

John Mitchell took the floor and
begged the convention not to hamper
President Wilson. While he was a
peace advocate he believed there were
conditions that sometimes justified
war within nation and between ma
tons.
President Gompers said the SUBJ
ject had taken much time Of the Leg
islative council, which had listened to
representations Of both Mexican fac
tiOns and had had much correspon-
dence on the subject.
Mr.. Gompers eulogized Madero. de-
nounced Huerta as an assassin and
pointed out the importance of main
tanning the Monroe doctrine.
The main question was brought up
after the convention had adopted a
declaration In favor Of international
peace. Two resolutions indorsing
Winston Spencer Churchilrs pro-
posal that the United States, Great
Britain and Germany discontinue war
ship construction for "a year were
adopted.
