OVER DEFEAT Of
5OC0NCRESSNEN
Legislators Hostile Toward
Labor Beaten at Polls;
Election Result a Plunge
Toward Reaction, Says.

Washington, Nov. samuel
Gompers, president of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor, declared
today in his first statement on the
outcome Of Tuesdays election that
''every forward looking man and
woman must feel some deep regret
because of the great plunge to-
wards reaction"
But democracy will right itSelt
at the proper time" said Mr.. Com
pers, land meanwhile the actual
tabulation OF results in congress,
the law making body, shows def
mite and specified gain for all that
makes for progress, and responds
to the needs Of our time
The non-nartisan political policy
of the labor federation, Mr. Com
pers continued, lis more COM
pletely justified than ever and the
futility of separate party action
more convincingly demonstrated.
Referring to the congressional
elections, MI Gompers said incOm-
plete check MS already showed
that fifty congressman who were
inconsderate and hostile have been
defeated"
Workers Made Gains.
This is one of the most impress
sive features of the election said
he. Fifty time servers have been
beaten.
Against these fifty the working
people have elected from fifty five
to sixty men whose records show
fair and considerate service, This
represents a clear gain for intcg-
rity in government
Mr.. Gompers claimed the cleo
ton to congress of at least fifteen
union men and said it was prOba-
BILE that the final counting would
show "more than twenty, possibly
twenty-five.
THE non bipartisan campaign of
the American Federation of La
Dor" the veteran leader Contin-
ued, was primarily and most eff
fectively a campaign in congress
sional districts. Its results were
gained in the primaries and in the
election. These results will serve
as a constant reminder to all serv-
ants of special privilege and the
ever present and always impress
sive fact VII be before the new
congress that fifty of the faithful
and the hostile were defeated by
the organized workers of our re-
public.
Hard Struggle for Labor.
"a notable American has said,
I would rather be right than be
president To be engaged in
righteous cause. to fight for free
dom, for justice, for peace and hu-
man brotherhood is of greater
concern to the human family than
is a passing success. The labor
movement of America recognized
the tremendous struggle of the
masses of people in all history to
obtain the right, and the setbacks
they have often had to endure and
the sacrifices they have had to
make, decade by decade, cycle by
cycle, and in the march and the
trend of the cause of freedom in
America, forward, onward and
upward.
shortly the names of the men
who have been fair and just and
who have been reelected and
those who have been unfair and
antagonistic and defeated will be
published by the American Fedora
tion of Labor
