 Vigorous opposition to federal 1egis- lation similar to the Kansas industrial court measures to unrestricted immigra- tion and to the use of injunction pro- ceedings in strikes was contained III a set of demands" which Samuel Com pers and Matthew A. Woll of the American Federation of Labor sum- mitted Wednesday to the resolutions committee of the republican national convention.
 Legislation which promises to make strikes unlawful, or to compel the wage earners to submit their grievances to courts or to governmental agencies, IS an invasion of the rights of the wage earners and when enforced makes for industrial serfdom and slavery" the statement said regarding the Kansas law.
 Labor pledged itself, 1t added, to up hold the federal law protecting its rights against "unwarrantab1e issuance of writs of injunction, either prohibit ory or mandatory"
 Other demands included: Immediate relief from the high cost of living bur dens; extension of the farm loan act to give credit to all properly organized co-operatives and individual farmers :; issuance of monthly statement by the Department of Labor on the cost of manufacture of staple articles; prompt federal investigation of profits and prices, and the making accessible of all incomes and other tax returns.
 Repeal of the labor provisions of the Esch-C -Cummins law; direct election of federal judges by the people for terms not exceeding six years, and action to prevent federal legislation being held unconstitutional.
 The statement also declared against the use of force by the United States in Mexico to compel MexicanS to meet the demands of persons who propose to "exploit" Mexico's resources.

brought against Pres William N.

worst possible combination of hard
