LABOR MEN Of TWO
COUNTRIES IN EFFORT
Appeal to People of Both Nations to
Do All In Their Power to
Avert War.

Washington. July labor leaders
of the United States and Mexico to-
day. believed they had started a pop
uiar movement to prevent war be-
tween the two nations by assisting
each to understand the difficulties of
the other. The movement was launch
ed by Issuance of statement signed
by officers of the American Fedora
ton of Labor and five representatives
of organized labor in Mexico. urging
people of both nations to make siren
uous efforts to prevent war.
The labor men propose that the
government OF each nation appoint a
commission to be composed of high
minded citizens, fully representative
of our nations, to consider differences
that have brought our nations to the
verge of war and to make such recon- =
mendations for adjustment as shall At
ly express the highest ideals OF ths
great rank and file, of the citizenship
OF the world" Messages approving
the proposal from local labor leaders
in various parts of the United States
and other citizens. were looked for
today.
