The statement declares the revolu-

serts that the Constitutionalist gov
ernment represents a genuine effort
to ''establish institutions of freedom

the fact that the American Fedora
ton of Labor appealed to President
Wilson to recognize the Constitution

The statement refers directly to the
influence exercised by the American
Federation of Labor in preventing
the war with Mexico, due to the fric-

American troops in Mexican territory
and the resulting encounter at Carri-

Upon several occasions the same idea
had been advanced, and in the pro-
ceedings OF the 1915 convention Of
the American Federation of Labor in
dorsement was given to proposal
for an organization that would repre-
sent human rights and interests in
all Pan-American countries. The
necessity for such labor federation
has been increasingly greater through
efforts to establish. closer commercial
and political relations between the
countries included in the Pan-Ameri-
can Union.

'In the high commission which re-
Gently made trip to Pan-American
countries for the purpose Of promot-
ing better commercial and industrial
relations, although there was no
phase in any of the relations between
these different countries that did not
in some way affect human interests
and human welfare, there was no one
on that commission who distinctly
represented human interests and the
rights and welfare Of the masses Of
the people.
II have urged upon the United
States government that this serious
commission ought to be rectified, and
I urge the labor movements of all
Pan-American countries to bring the
same matter to the attention Of their
respective governments But such

representation, valuable as it would
be. is not sufficient to protect and
promote the rights and welfare Of the
workers of all countries. A Pan
American federation of labor is not
only possible, but is necessary. 1t will
constitute a ready and fit agency for
injecting, into international delibera-
tions at opportune and critical times
consideration for human rights, in
terests and welfare.
I'm view of the importance of this
purpose, it is most gratifying to find
that the representatives from the
state Of Yucatan are to travel
through the countries of Central and
South America for the purpose of
promoting a Pan-American fedora
ton Of labor. The purpose Of their
mission has our most sympathetic
and hearty cooperation. The realiza-
ton of an international alliance be-
tween the labor movements of all
Pan-American countries will oonsti-
tute a genuine parliament Of men,,
one of the highest purposes to which
mankind has aspired.
1T is earnestly hoped that the rep
resentatives of all organized workers
in Pan-America will come into and
continue correspondence with the
undersigned. 2&.E.~. @..@

capitalists which recently made trip
to South America to establish closer
bond of fellowship between the inter-
national exploiters of the working
people included no one who dis
tinctly represented human interests
and the rights and welfare of the
masses"
This denial Of labor representation
on the high commissions personnel Is
declared to be an added reason for
the necessity of Pan-American
Labor Federation to guard the dis
tinct class interests of the workers.
The statement to the workers of
Mexico, Central and South America
follows:
"A purpose has long been in the
minds of many which has gradually
been taking form and seeking an op-
portunity, for. concrete expression.
Such an opportunity has been born
out Of the strained relations that have
xecently existed between the, United
Yates and Mexico and the great anx-
iSty aroused thereby in hearts and
minds Of the workers of both coun-
tries. There has come at least one
result that is potential 1or the main-
tenance of human rights and the es-
tablishment of principles of human
welfare: in international relations.

appeal to the workingmen Of our

WASHINGTON, July 15.-An out
line Of the plan for the formation Of
Pan-American Federation of Labor
has just been made public through a
statement issued from the national
headquarters of the American FEEDER
alton of Labor.
The statement, which is signed by
Samuel Gompers. president Of the A..
F. of L., is an integral part of the
credentials issued under the authority
of the executive council to the repre-
sentatives of the organized labor
movement Of Mexico who partici-
pated in the deliberations of the In
;ternational Labor Conference held in
tWashington last week.
A "Parliament of Men,"
Those representatives-Ca Lo-
veira and Baltazar Pages, Of Yucutan,

and S. Gonzalez Garcia, of Orizaba-

Mexico and Central and South Amer
lea with the necessity Of international
alliance of the workers.
"A Pan-American Federation OF
Labor is not only possible, but It is
necessary" declares the statement:

"A man must have stake in his

was the keynote of the conference, as
sounded by Frank P. Walsh, chairman
of the industrial relations commission.

Walsh bitterly attacked the va
