given him the agility and the athletic
bearing of a man much younger.
When HALEY isn't concerning

fourteen years ago, he has been

HALEY came to Washington from

Organized labor is squarely on rec
ord as opposed to all present plans
of the administration for guarding
against Industrial unrest. through n
formal statements issued last night
by President Gompers and Secretary
Morrison of the American Federation
of Labor which are the first or the
public discussion invited by the Presi-
dents industrial commission
Mr.. Gompers said the failure OF the
conference to recognize definitely the
organization Of workers-trade unions
, as the basis for representation was
a fatal omission. Mr.. Morrison, not
ing the absence of reference by the
conference to collective bargaining OF
, the necessity for organizations o!
workers said any one who would
avert or postpone Industrial con-

ciples.

Mr.. Gompers declared the commits.

through organization of their own
making.

workers and employers mus oo,ared aTotl
ANY proposal for compulsory iaooi
is repugnant to American sovereignty
and citizenship"
Mr.. Morrison said the declaration
against government employees joining
the American Federation or LABOR
.would indicate that the com MISSION
has been affected by the temporary
wave of anti-unionism.
The statement he added ohels

have this power themselves
Finds "Little Of Interest"
Mr.. Gompers, at the outset of his
statement. said that, except for It's
opening declaration. he had 1oun1
nothing new and little of Interest
in the conference report.
I'm the opening statement, cor
tinued Mr. Gompers, "the report sets

plication of this truth. Both en-
ployers and employees must be organ
lied in order to become responsible
parties to any system Of mediation
or NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. the arbi-
tration tribunal must deal with in
dividuals instead of organized groups.
The principle of representation de-
pends upon organization.
''The failure of the conference to
recognize definitely the organization
of workers-trade unions-as the
basis for representation is fatal
omission. Certainly the conference
should reconsider this point in order

"Any plan to establish or maintain
anything like fair relations between

American workers are American citi-

they are free men. Any proposal fol-
