He added he would make a state

Mr.. Gompers last night issued a

that the congress ''for the first time

The new organization is already
something more than a mere frame

ready taken a firm and unmistaka-
bic attitude on what is perhaps the
gravest problem OF this critical hour
is organized labor to be inveigled
into the revolutionary movements
that have been showing their heads
in every country Of Europe as a re-
suit of the war2"

feat by the congress Of a resolution

The Smoot measure would invali

claims in the west II would invali-
date many Of them held by e Pasoans
in New Mexico and many held by
other people in that state.
The Smoot measure provides that
the initiation of a claim against the
United States for minerals or oil

Of the mineral or oil The mere be

not establish your right to II undel
