The resolution was carried pS an
overwhelming majority. IL proNiue'
that a strong protest embodying i's es
sential points be sent to fresiueh'
Wilson and congress.
The resolution precipitated a hot de-
bate>lasting two hours, the oppositioh
being led by Seattle central LABOR
council delegates.
The resolution was signed by more
than hundred delegates from all sec
tions of the country.
Probably the entire body OF dele
gates will go to Washington by special
train on Saturday to participate In the
great labor demonstration against fur
ther enforcement of wartime prohipi-
ton.
A California delegate at the outset or
today's session protested against
newspaper articles, intimating tha1
delegates from the west, and partcu-
larly California, intend to bolt the con-
vention If, unable to have their way.
The California; delegates said that
there was absoleutely no truth in any
statement that western delegates
wanted to run the convention or had
any intention of boiling.
Another resolution is one requesting
President Wilson to remove Postmas-
ter General Burleson. This was in
troduced by F.. j. Gamer of the Ma
tional Association Of Letter Carriers;

The resolutioa quotes Rresidspt Will
sons recentmessage in which he said:
The question which stands at the
front Of all others in every country
amidst the present great awakening is
the question Of labor. The object OF
ell reform in this essential matter
must be generous Decentralization of
industry. based upon full recognition
of those who work, in'whatever rank,
to participate in some organic way in
every decision which directly affects
their welfare or the4part they play in
industry" st-
Thef~ resolution says Mr. Burleson
has pursued a iobor policy in direct
conflict with this enunciation Of these
PRINCIPLES, and in answer to President
Gomperss of the american Federation
OF Labor has characterized as silly
the right OF collective bargaining"
The postmaster general is charged
in the resolution with having ruth

Paris. June 13.--Admiral kolchak'
tho head Of the all Russian government
at Omsk, in his reply to the first let
ter from the allied and associated
powers, which resulted in a second let
ter promising him allied support ue-
clared that he did not propose to re-
tain power longer than required by the
interests of the country. He reaf1irm-
ed his intention to call elections for
the constituent assembly as soon as the
bolsheviki have been crushed. In MS
reply Admiral Kolchak said:
"On Nov. IS. 1918. l assumed power
and | shall not retain that power one
day longer than required by the inter-
ests Of the country. My first Thought
at the moment when the bolsheviki are
definitely crushed will be to fix the
dates for tine eiections vi the eonsf.-
tuent assembly. a commission is now
at work on direct preparation for them
on the basis of universal suffrage. Con-
Nsidering myself as responsible for that
constituent assembly. l shall hand over
to it all my powers in order that it may
freely determine the systems of gov
ernment. I have. moreover, taken the
oath to do this before the supreme
Russian tribunal, the guardian OF le-
gality.
Seeks to Crush Bolshevism.
"All my efforts are aimed at con-
cluding the civil war as soon as pos
sible by crushing bolshevism in order
to put the Russian people in a position
to express it's free will Any prolonga-
ton of this struggle would only post
pone that moment. The government.
however, does not consider itself au-
thorized to substitute to the inalien-
able right Of free and legal elections to
mere re establishment OF the assembly
Of 1917, which was elected under a
regime Of bolshevik violence, and a
majority Of those members now are in
the ranks of the soviet It is thru the
legally elected constituent assembly
alone which my government will do its
utmost to convoke properly that there
will belong the sovereign rights Of de-
Gliding the problems OF the Russian
state both in the internal and external
affairs Of the country.
In Sympathy With Allied Aims.
1--WE gladly consent to discuss at
once with the powers all international
questions, and doing so shall aim at
the free and peaceful development Of
the peoples. the limitation of arma-
ments and the measures calculated ta
prevent new wars~of which the league
Of nations is the highest expression.
"The Russian government thinks.
however, that it should recall the fact
that final sanction OF the decisions
which may be taken in the name Of
Russia will belong to the constituent
assembly. SRussia can not now and
can not in the future ever be anything
but democratic state where ali lisques-
,ions involving notifications Of the
territorial frontiers and of external re-
lations must be ratified. by a ropre-
sentative body, which Is the national
