CONFESSION 0FBITTER FIGHT

by THE STATEON WAR ISSUE.
Long Expected Debate Over
Policy of the American
Federation Of Labor Be-
gun at Buffalo.
President Gompers Allows
Free Discussion of I. w.
W-Governors Of Mime
sofa and Illinois Assaulted
by Delegates.

Buffalo. N. Y, Nov. 19.-The pro
peace" factionists made their long ex-
pected invasion Of the pro-govern-
ment. pro-war American Federation
of Labor convention here late today
and precipitated bitter fight on the
presumably long dead Peoples Council
issue.
These are the forces opposed to the
o-government policy of the fedora
ton.
The fight started on resolution
recommended for adoption by the ex-
ecutive council endorsing the pa
triotic motives" of the American alli-
ance for labor and democracy, the or
ganization which followed the peo-
pies council on it's wanderings through
the middle west to offset it's peace
convention proclivities.
The attack was led by John M.
Barnes. former secretary Of the Social
list party. and by Delegate Fisher, a
Canadian representative.
GOVERNORS AssAlLED.
Barnes assailed the governors of
Minnesota and Illinois for stopping the
peoples council convention. accused
President Gompers of organizing the
t>American alliance to put down the
peoples council and to "usurp the pre-
negatives and privileges OF the rank
and file Of labor by shutting off free
speech.
The American alliance afterward
/ invited these two governors to address
it's members. II that's patriotism. you
can count me out. I'm not a patrio,
and ! don't want any Of it in NINE"
Fisher, after announcing that he had
four brothers in the war and that one
of them had been killed, denounced tn,
resolution the American alliance, the
anti-I. w. w. hanging in Wyoming
the deportatiops in Arizona and othel
such events. He vehemently denied
that he was an I. w. w. or a Peoples
council apostle. Then turning Il
Gompers in the chair. he yelled:
RESOLUTION INDEFINITE.
But this resolution is too indefin
| lite. ! demand to know your defini
ton of patriotism before l proceed
with my opinion of the resolution"
Then You will have to retain you
criticism" said Gompers.
Several delegates interrupted at thi
point to demand that the issue OF pa
triotism be not discussed. Gomper
waved the directors aside and en-
couraged the Reds to say as man,
and as bitter things as they cared to
4 A motion to lay the resolution on tn
table was voted down with howls. TIL
fight promised to continue all after
noon.<
