$ RECORD DURING PAST
 YEAR

W 'T''iii4>b oANp otpL' {. -- fTank Morrison, secretary of the American Federation of Labor, made public to- night the following statement in re view of the labor situation:
 'It is impossible to record funda- mental gains during the past year be- cause of organized labor's agitation or to individualize probable gains dur ing the year to come.
 "The best we can do is to observe tendencies. Prominent among these is the workers seizure of the cry for preparedness to emphasize a danger in industry more deadly than battle fields.
 Government statistics show that 32,0OO men are annually killed, and 7O0,OOO are annually injured for a period of four weeks, or over.
 'Tt has been stated that every year there are over 3,00G,OOO cases of in dustrial illness, caused mainly by long hours, low wages, dust, bad air. fumes, smoke, poisonings and poor ventila- tion and that through typhoid fever and malaria alone $900, 100000 is an nually lost to this nation Enough to equip the largest army and navy in the world, and then have a balance suffi- cient to pay the tuition of every boy now in college.
 A system of national preparedness that does not include recognition of this frightful and preventable vast age is the preparedness urged by big business. A mortality that ignores these facts and condemns war is based on meaningless phrases.
 "Another present day tendency is the acceptance of organized labor's position on immigration restriction. During the past year the acid test of experience has verified the claim of trade unions that American insti- tutions can not assimilate, nor Amerl- can standards resist, the flood tides of induced immigration that has been the policy of captains of industry. In formation and reports received by the officers of the American Federation of Labor clearly demonstrates the fact that a labor famine exists only where employers still demand long hours at low wages, and where they ignore the living standards set by the workers. Another element among em- ployers who talk Of the scarcity of labor do so to entice a sufficient mum Der of idle workers to their factory gates as a menace to those employed and who are liable to demand better conditions. These employers oppose restriction of immigration because re striction will defeat their policy of having two or more men for every job.
 Another tendency is the growing opposition to labor injunctions. which class labor power as property The congress of the United States has voiced this opposition in amendments to the antitrust laws. Judicial inter pretations of the term property in the fourteenth amendment of the fed eral constitution are losing their force. What was originally intended to end slavery has been used to thwart the enactment of social legfs- latiOn, but courts have failed to check the swelling tide of democracy.
 "The trade union movement is con scious of the part 1t has played in the tendencies above referred to, and this consciousness will he an inspira- tion to greater effort during the com ing year"
