GOMPERS ACTS TO
HAVE LABOR Join
PEACE MOVEMENT

PHILADELPHIA. Nov. ia great
conference of organized labor will be
called at the end OF the European
war to lay foundation Of more perma-
nent peace, If a resolution introduced
by President Samuel Gompers. of the
American Federation of Labor, is in
dorsed by the convention in session
here. 1t was the firm belief Of many
delegates today that this resolution
would be adopted.
The measure provides that the
executive council summon such a
gathering TO meet at the same place
and time the peace conference is con-
Quoted The purpose of the inter-
national assembly of labor's repre-
sentatives is that Suggestions may
be made and such action taken as
shall be helpful in restoring fraTernal
relations, protecting the interests Of
the toilens and thereby assisting In
laying the foundation OF a more last
ing peace"
The olive branch OF peace was IN
effect rendered by the fedora ton to
the brotherhoods of trainmen, con-
ductors. and bricklayers, organiza-
lions which have refused TO come into
the Federation of Labor and at times
have opposed its interests Under
direction of President Gompers a
resolution reported out by the organi-
zation COMMITTEES virtually authoriz-
ing war upon these brotherhoods was
recommitted. 1t was not expected the
measure would come up again.
A campaign was indorsed to start
organization among school teachers,
stenographers, bookkeepers. domestic
servants. farmers and commercial
telegraphers. II emphasized there was
plenty TO do without stirring up strife
among men already organized.
The federation today stood sohdly
behind its resolution urging shat Con-
gress establish an Industrial alcohol
commission. free from Standard oil
influence. to demonstrate the prac-
ticability of denatured alcohol distill-
ing on farms. The Rockefeller Foun-
dalton was condemned as being
dangerous and inimical to the inter-
ests OF education in this country, be-
cause sit bears the possibilities Of
controlling and influencing the edu-
cational activities of the nation"
