Montreal. June 14.-It Is "pitiable''
that the United States has not rati-
ied the league of nations" Samuel
Gompers. president of the American
Federation Of Labor, declared here
today in an address before the fed
eration's convention. If the league
covenant were submitted to the
American people without any other
entangling questions, 1t would be
overwhelmingly accepted" he said.
The United States has forgotten
the effort of the nations of the world
to prevent another horrible conflict
such as that which started six years
ago."
The labor draft of the league
covenant" he added, would help in
the reunion Of the working people Of
the world and would help workers in
the mos. backward countries"
Mr.. Gompers made strong ap-
peal to the convention to support
the league and lend helping hand
to the toilers Of the smaller coun-
tries"
