LABOR PLANS COUP
TO WIN FIGHT
WITHCAPlTAL

Girding for a finish fight with
capital, the American Federation OF
Labor today announced that great
labor conference would be convened
in Washington in the near future.
Samuel Gompers will call his hosts
to this city, probably early in No
vember, to survey the situation and
prepare for what they think will be
q long siege of industrial strife and
discord.
All Unions Represented.
The III international union1 the
four railroad brotherhoods, and the
United Mine Workers will be repre-
scented. In the effort to effect labor
solidarity, and to insure IL against
the inroads Of Bolshevism, the four
brotherhoods may formally accept
membership in the federation at this
conference.
Mr.. Gompers' telegram was in an
swer to one authorized by the Illinois
federation suggesting a convention of
the American Federation of Labor to
perfect an offensive and defensive al
lance of the unions of this country
and Canada to fight labor battles.
This dispatch was sent to Gompers
after the withdrawal of the labor
group from the industrial conference.
Call Is Labor's Answer.
The call is labor's announcement to
the country that IL will fight to the
end in the steel strike and in the
other Industrial conflicts that are
coming.
The most important factor in the
conference is that scores of delegates
from the international unions
will bear instructions from their con-
stituencies to insist upon a far more
radical policy than that which the
present leadership in the federation
now sanctions.
In asking Mr.. Gompers to issue this
call, the Illinois Federation stated:
"One> of the objects of the confer
ence should be the levying of an as
sessmsnt upon every organized
worker in the United States and Can
ada of not less than one-fourth of
his net earnings: and upon every Of
ficer of organized labor not less than
SO per cent of his salary until the OBJ
Jects of this drive be accomplished"

HOUSE TO MODIFY
CUMMINS RAIL BILL
Anti-Strike Teeth Will Be
Drawn Is Belief of
Leaders.

Virtual agreement has been reached
by the House Interstate Commerce
Committee today in it's framing of a
railroad bill, not to include the dras-
tic anti-strike provision OF the Cum
Minis bill now before the Senate.
While the labor provisions of this
bill have not been completed, the
House program apparently is being
formulated along these lines:
Compulsory arbitration of all dis
putes between railroad operators and
employees by a Government arbitra-
tion board, to be formed similar to
the War Labor Board. The dispute
must be submitted to the board before
any action such n a strike or a lock-
out. Enforcement of the findings of
the board is left largely to public
opinion. and the arbitration does not
bind either party's later action.
Sentiment in the House subcommit-
tee apparently does not favor the
Cummins plan Of calling all railroad
strikes illegal. II is thought to be
constitutional. but impractical of en-
forcement.
Many differences. it is now certain.
will appear when the final Senate and
House bills are compared
