 "These funds were used:
 To employ lobbyists and pay
 their unaudited expenses; to in

 candidates who would wink at vio-

RESOLUTION NO. 31. Establishing Labor Journal,

WHEREAS, The established press of the country Is systematically suppress ing the voice of labor and is nlisrepre- senting to the general public the efforts of 1aboring men to secure flying wages and rolcrable working conditions.
 WHEREAS, The above mentioned atti- tude on the part of the established press has resulted in creating in the minds of laboring men a distrusts of one and ing many of them from joining their labor organization and weakens the confidence of others in their leaders. WHEREAS, This distrust and lack of confidence has resulted in weakening the labor organizations both externally and internally and has made 1t possible for the employing class which consti- tutes only about 53o of the people to dictate the political government of the nation and exclude the iaboring class from a voice in industrial activities.
 WHEREAS, The colleges and the churches are controlled by these same enemies of the laboring man and are being employed to poison the public with doctrines of non-resistance and subservience.
 WHEREAS, Through these several agencies the 1aborers are kept poor, ignorant and degraded.
 WHEREAS, The present oppressive policy of the employer class is fast driving the working people of the na- ton into Bolshevism, which means the possible destruction Of modern civiliza- ton and a reversion tc the dark ages :; WHEREAS, This condition can be overcome only by educating the work ing people of the nation politically, in dustrially and otherwise so that they may be able, unaided, to distinguish truth from 1ntrEin:
 WHEREAS, The most potent means of education and of disseminating the truth is the press; and
 WHEREAS, The present labor journals, though working along the right lines, are not wide enough in their appeal; therefore be it
 RESOLVED, That this Convention in struct its delegates to the American Federation of Labor to do everything in their power to induce that body to establish national labor journal, the policy of which would be dictated by that body; that the membership of each organization affiliated with the A. F. of L. become subscribers to this journal; that this journal be placed with news dealers throughout the country, that it treat all intellectual, scientific, literary, artistic, political, industrial and other subj jects and treat them i'll non-partisan manner; that it be made a means to educate the workingman to an intel

RESOLU 1 HUN NO- 0L. Thrift and Savings.


 All trade unionists should realize the absolute necessity at this time of mak- ing some provisions 10 insure them selves against future needs and to safe guard their lives and happiness by stimulating the practice of thrift and savings of the men and women in the labor movement in the State of Con- necticut.
 The American Federation of Labor at the annual convention held in Allan tic City, last June, adopted resolutions supporting the thrift and savings move ment as conducted by the Savings Division of the United States Treasury Department.
 The great good that comes from sys- tematic saving and protection derived therefrom is realized by many ir the American labor movement Therefore, be 1t
 RESOLVED, That this convention go on record as urging all members of organ ized labor to adopt some definite form of systematic savings. The United States government securities today are the safest and -soundest securities in the world and offer to the workers aeon venient method of laying aside small savings to provide for future require ments through the purchase of Thrift Stamps, Savings Stamps and Treasury Saving Certificates. To those of us in the labor movement who have to face the adjustment of the various economic problems confronting the workers the fact becomes more and more apparent that every individual should try and save a little and the practice of doing so regularly is to be highly commended to al. Therefore be 1t .z
 RESOLVED, That this convention urge all the members of the State Fedora ton of Labor in Connecticut to become actively interested in the savings move ment and to lend their every effort and assistance to make such movement a success.

our enlisted soldiers were unable to read newspaper intelligently or write letter home, that more than one fourth of those examined for. military service were found physically unfit and that millions of American citizens were unable to read our Constitution, or even the ballots they cast, have empha- s1zed the importance of public educa- tion from a national standpoint; and WHEREAS, The life and prosperity of a free government must depend upon an enlightened and patriotic citizenship. | And that our republic can be made safe, efficient and enduring only by the de- velopment, through the right kind of education, of a citizenship physically and intellectually sound and embued with the spirit of true Americanism, and
