Staff Correspondent
MONTREAL, June 16.-The Kansas
industrial court was condemned as a
machine for confiscation of liberty
in a resolution unanimously adopted
here today ct the annual convention
of the A. F. of l..
The resolution pledged the full
power of organized labor in the Unit
ed States to assist Kansas workers in
fighting for repeal Of the law estab
fishing the court.
The court established compulsory
labor, the resolution declared and con.
stitutes denial of human rights.
The resolution was offered as a sub,
stitute for four other resolutions con.
demning the court. One of the origi
nal resolutions was introduced by Alex.
ander Howatt, delegate of the Kansas
State Federation of Labor.
The four original resolutions were
referred to the executive council over
the OPPOSITION of Howatt who rdi,
culed Governor Allen, father of the
court.
"Ninety-nine per cent Of the work
their disapproval Of the court" said
Howatt
The convention without discussi ion
indorsed the action Of President SAM
uel Gompers and the executive cOun-
Gil in organizing the national non
partisan polit cal campaign committee
to elect a congress friendly to organ
lied to labor.
Full approval was voted the execu-
tive council for its program to reduce
living costs and Jail profteers. The
program provided for confiscation OF
practically all war profits for four
years back, esta blishment of a gov
ernment agency to administer credits
and sale by the government at cost
of standard necessities. Under the
convention pans, the program will be
presented to the democratic national
convention at San Francisco.

Liberals to Build Platforms
Which Will Fit Together :.
in Case Of Amalga-
nation.
TO MEET JULY 10 AND II
Bust the Trusts Expected to be One of
the Popular Slogans If Unite
on One Cand-
date.

United Press Leased Wire Service. !
CHICAGO. June 16-Platforms Of
liberal parties which will hold their
national conventions here beginning
July 10 and II, are being worked out
so they will fit together in case it is
decided to amalgamate in support OF
one presidential ticket, it was learned
here today.
Both the labor party and the COM
mittee of forty-eight have practically
decided on the presentation Of dupli-
cate labor planks, to their conYen-
tiOns.
These planks, according to officials
Of both parties, will differ only in
their wording and will provide public
ownership Of transportation, natural
resources, stock yards, grain eleva-
tors, telephone, telegraph, flour mills
and all basic Industries with workers
participating in the management.
The league Of nations issue has
been left untouched by the platform
builders. Opinion on the subject is
divided, there being the same trouble
among the liberals on this question as
that experienced by the republicans
at their convention and which it is
predicted will crop out at the demo-
Gratis convention.
Liberal leaders do not expect it to
cause a SmaSh-up.
The committee of forty-eight has
opened campaign to popularize it.

lets containing declarations of prin-
ciple, adopted at its conference in st.

Bust the trusts" was expected to
be one Of the popular slogans if both
parties unite on one candidate. In
the pamphlets the committee attacks
the steel oil, beef, milling and coal
trusts"
Leaders advocating formation of a
third party today believed their
cause strengthened by the outbreak of
discord among the republicans as a
result of DR.. Nicholas Murray Buffers
