Atlantic City. June 1e--The Ameri-
can Federation of Labor in a resolution
adopted at its convention here today
condemning what were declared to De
'usurpjations Of the judiciary OF the
powers. recommended that organized
labor should disregard injunctional de-
crees Of courts on the grounds that
such DEGREES violated rights yuaran-
teed under the constitution.

promptly impeached. 1t asserted that
our courts and Judges have been
disregarding the rights Of the people
and exercising powers more tyrannical
than any assumed by the most tyran-
nical despot In history"
1t was charged the court had influ-
enced the legislative and executive de-
partments Of the, government. The
courts were charged with creating the
worst sort of an autocracy."

preme courts OF the states and the

ers taken from them and reorganized.

can Federation OF Labor has refused to

when the resolutions committee re-
ported resolution asking withdrawal
from Russia Of American soldiers, but
refused to report others demanding
recognition Of soviet Russia and lift
ing the Blockade of Russian ports. The
committee refused to indorse recogni-
tion Of the Soviet or any other form
of government in Russia, until the peo-
pie of that country BY constituent or
other form Of national assembly, shall
have established. truly democratic
form of government"
The debate was said by veteran labor
leaders to have been the most bitter
they ever had. 1t followed rejection by

.tast OF the radical group Of a proposal
to change American Labor Day from
