ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., August 3d.
A campaign Of the American Federation
Of Labor for membership of 5000. 900
will be launched on Labor day, the fed
eration's executive council announced
today.
President Samuel Gompers has issued
an appeal to labor throughout the coun-
try to rally on Labor day in public
gatherings for inspiring public ad-
dresses and distribution of literature Of
our movement"
The time has come for labor to as
sumo the aggressive" said his appeal
I'VE have held the lire. Our positions
are intact. 1t Is the hour for a great
forward movement. Set Labor day as
the day upon which we cease holding
the line and begin to move forward in a
great resistless wave"
Plans Speaking Tour.
Mr.. Gompers will make a speaking
tour Of the principal cities. His first
address will be in Baltimore on Labor
day.
The campaign has been ordered by
the council because Of the recent slump
in membership of the federation due to
unemployment. The present member
ship is given as 3.906.52S, as compared
with 4.078.740 in 1920.
The council. which has been in session
it's business today.
The open-shop campaign and the
aggressive hostility of unfair en-
ployers" have strengthened rather than
weakened the solidarity of the or
ganized labor movement. it was de-
clared in a statement last night by
the executive council of the American
Federation of Labor. The council
based it's decision. the statement said.
upon reports submitted by affiliated
national and international unions and
other information collected throughout
the country.
Unemployment Cuts Revenue.
Analysis of the reports, the state
ment said, showed that a reduction in
payment of dues by the federation's
membership was due principally to
the wave of unemployment through
out the country. Secretary Frank
Morrison took occasion to deny reports
published today that the federation
has suffered slump of 100000 mem
bers during the present Industrial
crisis. Morrison referred to figures
announced at the Denver convention.
which showed a decrease of 172,212
members during the past year. but de-
clined to give any figures on the pres
ent membership.
