Provisions of the cummins rail-

strikes q misdemeanor would re-
suit IN virtual enslavement OF
labor, Samuel Gompers. head Of the
American Federation of Labor. told
the Senate Interstate Commerce
Committee yesterday.
Il hold that such a measure
pzould not only be unconstitutional
but would be repugnant to the
spirit of the constitution and an
tagonistic to the spirit of the
United states.- Gompers said.
The purpose is evident" he con-
tinued. TO deny to the workers the
right to dispose OF themselves and
their ability to work as they see
fit"
Such legislation previously en-
acted In this country and other
countries has been a failure, Mr..
Gompers asserted, citing the COM
pulsory arbitration act OF New
Zealand
Prohibiting strikes of railroad
workers would lead to Industrial
revolution. Glenn E Plumb warned
the committee.
The causes Of strikes should be
removed" he said.
This bill goes at the problem
wrong end to. 1t is not protecting
publG interests. but private. ana
violates the constitutional privilege
of the men. Two million workers
cannot be put in Jail"
Plumb said he does not oeheVe

general strike to force adoption OF
