Georges Carpenters chief sparring
partners, Paul Journee and italian

SUPPORTERS OF
GOMPERS, LEWIS
SOLICIT VOTES
EIectioneering of the Most
Relentless Character
Marks Campaign for A.
F. of |. Presidency.
(By The Associated press.)

Denver, Colo, June 21.-Elec-
tioneering of the most relentless
character marked todays campaign
of supporters Of both President
Samuel Gompers and John Il.
Lewis, president of the United Mine
Workers, to put their respective
candidates into the presidency of
the American Federation of Labor.
Both Sides reported definite
progress and the indications were
that the race would be close one.
Each candidate, however appeared
confident of victory. -,
'"The situation looks fine was
the only comment of Mr.. Lewis,
who had nearly a score Of repre-
septatives canvassing the situation.
Gompcrs Is Silent.
President Gompers had no state
ment tU make, but his supporters
were working at top speed and de-
clared that they had sufficient
votes t. re-elect him to the presi-
dency with good safe margin"
Although they claimed to have
sufficient votes pledged to elect
the miners chief. his supporters
admitted today that the vote Of the
United Mine Workers would be
spill. as al least two delegates would
cast their ballots for Gompers.
The railroad organizations UP TO
tonight, it was definitely learned,
have not de cided as to which candi-
date they will support. Labor
leaders declare that the vote Of
these organizations will probably
settle the contest, unless the delega-
tions split their vote.
Reports that Fred Hewitt, chair
man of the machinist union, was
a candidate for the presidency,
were Genied tonight by Mr.. Hewitt,
who said: p
This report is absolutely rldicu-
lous, am not a candidate and
will not be-"
Situation Complicated.
The machinst delegates cannot
support Gompers as they are in
structed by their membership not
to vote for any one who Is a mem
Der of the National Civic associa-
ticn. Their vote is claimed by the
Lewis supporters.
Because Of the complicated sit
uation that is resulting from the
various delegations splitting their
votes and because of the failure Of
many unions to decide which can
didate they would support, no de-
finite figures as to the possible
lineup on both sides were ex-
pected before tomorrow night or
Thursday morning.

"Sitting behind a smoke screen
Of hostility to union labor" the

Andrew Furuseth, president Of
the seamen's union, in addressing
the convention, protested the ac-
tion Of the shipping board in es-
tablish the "open shop" as part
of conspiracy to destroy the Am

"The question of wage is second

That labor and capital contrib

doctrine advanced by Glenn Plumb

plan for railroad operation, IN an
address before the convention.
Speaking on Industrial democ-

is any surplus from industry, labor
is entitled to an equal share with
capital" He insisted that despite
President Gompers' declaration
that labor was not commodity,
that SIT still was being treated as
a commodity, bartered for over the
counter, Just like any other mer-
chandise."
His speech was largely a treatise
on economies and at its conclusion
he was given an ovation. ...a.-.
