Som Gompers and other officers of
the American Federation Of Labor
are taking a hand in the building
trades situation in Chicago. This is
shown first of all in the fact that En-
met Flood is out in the open fighting
bitterly against the model agree

mon O'Donnell, president Of the
building trades council, and his selp-
eTs.
Flood is the official organizer for
the A. F. of L., and his Office in the
Mortimer building is the most direct
A. F. of L. connection in Chicago.
When Flood declared to the Chicago
Federation of Labor Sunday that
'Shighbinders" are in control Of the
building trades council it was under
stood he was speaking by the advice
ofthe A. F. of L. heads and high Of
ficials Of the building trades depart

EThe peace plan" proposed by
O'DOnnell through a model agree
ment," to be signed by all building
trades unions in the city, goes far
Their than anything Of the kind ever
attempted. It has aroused opposition
because, for three years ahead, it
would take away from the rank and
file Of the unions all power to strike,
to boycott or to make any kind of a
fight against any employer who
should take it into his head to black
list, discriminate or work any other
rough stuff on the Workmen.
