viii Try to GET Union to Recede From
Stand Blamed for Hard Feeling
Carpenters Sit Silent During
Ing the Proceedings.

San Francisco, CAL, Nov. 22.-The
American Federation Of Labor in the
closing sessions of its thirty-fifth an.
nual convention faced the problem OF
attempting to heal breach in its
ranks that developed at the session
Friday night which, in the language
of leading officers and delegates
threatened the disruption Of the or
ganization. w.,
The trouble arose over Nconsidera-
ton OF a resolution that, had 1t been
adopted, would have meant the loss
OF 100000 members of the federation.
The resolution, offered by the adjust
ment committee, called for the suspen-
sion Of the United Brotherhood Of Car.
penters and Joiners, the second larg;
est international union in America.
Encroachment Is Charged.
The resolution to withdraw the char,
ter OF the carpenters union was the
result OF the failure of the organiza
tion to refrain from alleged encroach.
ing upon jurisdiction awarded the ma
chinists, coupled with the carpenters
unions attitude toward the federation
In the course Of the debate Samuel
Gompers, president OF the federation.
said: I'VE are not safe from disinte.
grafton and failure II we lose sight OF
the ideals of human brotherhood"
John p. Lennon, opposing the expul-
sion OF the carpenters, said: I'VE are
not safe from disruption"
Andrew Furuseth, secretary of the
Sailors Union of the Pacific coast,
expressed his belief that the carpen.
ters' union was deliberately seeking
to compel the federation to withdraw
the charter.
Carpenters Sit Silent.
During the hour In which charges
\ were tfufnd III them ana speaker art
er speaker taunted them with bad
faith, the big delegation OF carpenters
sat silent.
The carpenters union was accused
of repairing, dismantling and setting
up machinery in buildings in various
cities, and with claiming the right
to do such work, in defiance of the
express commands of the federation
convention in Philadelphia last year
, Furuseth in his speech said: 'lpre
fer the charge that the claim pu
forth by the carpenters is put up sci
entitlcally and purposely to brint
about expulsion"
, Substitute Is Offered.
