LABOR TAKES ISSUE

The American Federation of La
Dor in a resolution adopted at It's
convention here today condemnins
what were declared to be "usurpa-
tions by the judiciary" of the gov
ernment's legislative and executive
powers, recommended tlIat organ
lied labor should disregard injunc-
tional DEGREES Of courts on the ground
that such DEGREES violated rights
guaranteed under the constitution.
The memorandum demanded that
judges who exceeded their authority
should be promptly impeached. The
resolution charged further that the
courts had subordinated the leglsla-
tive and executive departments of the
government and the courts were de-
scribed as "a sinister influence
which is sapping the life out of our
institutions and creating the worst
sort of an autocracy."
