DELEGATES GO
ON RECORD FOR
44-HOUR WEEK
Federation Executive Council
Directed to Work For Short
Week For Labor Generally
Wiremen's Strike Approved.
BY Associated Press,

Atlantic City, ". j., June 24.-In-
dorsement of the Commercial Telegra-
pliers strike was unanimously voted
today by the American Federation Of
Labor. The convention also went on
record in favor Of a Armour week for
labor generally and directed the exec
utive council to work for that end.
A resolution adopted on the subject
OF the wire strike directed the appoint
ment by President Gompers Of a com
mittee to go to Washington to confer
with Postmaster General Burieson and
ask that concession on collective bar
gaining recently granted telephone and
electrical workers, be extended to in
clude employees Of the telegraph COM
panies under government control. Such
extension. it was declared, would. re-
suit in the ending Of the strike.
Reject wet" Plea.
The convention turned down a reso-
lution introduced by delegates from
Seattle, which would have put the
American Federation of Labor on rec
ord as being in favor Of prohibition.
A memorial vas adopted urging Ia
Dor unions to meet with an encourage
former soldiers, sailors and marines to
protect themselves against exploita-
tons by unpatriotic employers"
Slap at Radicals.
The convention also adopted a reso-
luton changing the federation consu-
tuition so as to permit disciplinary
action against unions which show radi-
cal tendencies. The executive council
may revoke the charter Of any central
union or body Of delegates which calls
a strike o. attempts to take a strike
vote which would, If successful, cause
a walkout Of affiliated bodies. James
Duncan, of Seattle, said 1t made no diff
ference whether this change was
wrought in the constitution or not, add
ing that If a central body wanted to
take action 1t would do so regardless Of
constitutions and rules. This sentiment
was indorced by "Curley" Grow, Of Los
Angeles.
Another resolution denounced de
plorable conditions" in the railway mail
service and asked that congress pass
laws providing for a standard day for
railway mail clerks.
