The American Federation Of
Labor today squelched an attempt
to stampede its annual conven-
ton into favoring formation by
organized labor Of a third big
political party. ~
Appeal for a political revolt

Supreme Court Attacked.
Four amendments to the Federal
constitution and three new laws
all calculated to slash the power
OF the Supreme Court and advance
the cause Of organized labor were
considered by the Federation yes
terday. ., ..t1 .r. ..,
The amendments provide for:
/. Prohibition of the labor OF chill
dren under the age Of sixteen
years.
2. Prohibition of the enactment of
any law under which judges can
deny workers the right to organize
or deal collectively or use the
power of boycott.
3. Granting to Congress the power
70 veto court decisions by two.
thirds vote.
4. Making II easier to pass future
ainenSments.
The proposed, legislation includes:
1. A child labor law which win
overcome objections raised by the
Supreme Court.
Q. A law which viii make definite
and effective the intentions Of Con-
gress in enacting the Clayton act
which labor leaders hold was
ignored and overridden by the
court" ......r
9. A law repeating the Sherman
antitrust law, which labor claims
Through judicial misinterpretation
and perversion has been invoked
to deprive the toiling masses Of
their rights" ~.
Formal Adoption Delayed.
This program was submitted by
q special committee named to ad-
vance ways for dealing with the
courts and "the forces of privilege
and reaction" Because So many
delegates wanted to speak for Il,
formal adoption Of the plan was
carried over.
The federation intends to carry
out the program by packing Con-
gress with men who are favorable
to Il. This is not to be done
through the formation OF labor
party but by supporting candi-
dates in the old parties who are
favorable to the union movement.
In addition to making these rec
concentrations the report Of the COM
mittee bitterly denounced the courts
and commercial concerns that oppose
unions.
''The American people are facing
a critical situation, the report reads.
Their very existence as q De-
mocracy and a goveiNmept OF law
is at stake. A judicial oligarchy is
threatening to set itself up above
the elected legislators, above the peo
pie themselves.
THE forces of privilege and re-
action have embarked upon a con.
certed campaign to deprive the citi.
zens OF their constitutional liberties,
and to break down the standards Of
life itself.
"The courts of the country anj
particularly the supreme court. have
undertaken to deprive American
labor of fundamental rights and
liberties"
The report then reviews six su-
preme court decisions which Il holds
detrimental to the labor cause.
