WHY LABOR IS
 OPPOSED TO
 IMMIGRATION
Gompers Explains Attitude of Federation, at Pan-Ameri-
 can Meeting.

New York, July 9.-Opposition of the American Federation of Labor to unrestricted immigration during the next four years is based largely on a desire to checkmate "a combination of corporations, trust and shipping companies" to bring immigrants to the United States under contract which made them virtually "slaves to these trusts" Samuel Gompers, presi- dent of the American federation de- clared in an address before the Pan- American Federation of Labor here tonight.
 MT. Gompers' address was in res ponse to resolution adopted at the day session. inquiring why the fedtration had taken stand on immi- grafton at it's Atlantic City conven- tion, "whch conflicts with the con- cerns of the first congress of the Pan-A Ann nrican Federation of Labor, held at Laredo, Texas"
 The second reason, Mr. Gompers asserted, was the fact that four mil lion American soldiers were being re- turned to industry and that the fed eration's duty was to "so adjust our dIdlfS CHdC LHe AnleflCdIS small have the right to job before any one who may come here from an- tined country"
 Mr. Gompers asserted that the federation had been trying for years to organize workers in the packing and iron and steel industries. but had met little success, because "these men had been kept in bondage and have been allowed only their own languaee newspapers, which taught them they should hate the American labor movement and not join it."
 "This is critical time, a crucial time, a time unprecedented on the globe" Mr. Gompers continued, land it simply means we must protect our- selves or be overwhelmed"
 The Pan-American Federation selec- ter Mexico City as the place for the third annual convention, which will be held next July. Only two votes were cast against Mexico City. These were cast by delegates from Eucador, in favor of the city of Quito, Eucador.
