Gompers Expects Workers of Europe
And Two Americas to Con-
Sn1idatn

SGildate
New ork, July l2.-Samuel Comp
ers, president of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor, was amcng the
passengers sailing yesterday on
board the Mauretania. He will rep
resent the American labor organiza-
tions at an international congress
Of the trade unions at Amsterdam,
Holland. THE congress is revival
of: siniilar meetings held before the
war, with headquarters in Berlin.
MIR. Gompers said that his princi-
pal object in going to Europe was
to confer. with European labor Lead
ers in regard to the organization of
the commission on international Ia
bor' legislation, which will meet in
Washington next October unnder the
provisions of the peace treaty. He
expressed the belief that during his
trip a coalition of European, PAN
American and American labor or
ganizations would be effected which
would be greater than anything
dreamed of in the past.
Nh. Gompers expects to spend
seven weeks in Europe, and will
visit Belgium, France and England,
as we'll as Holland.
