LABOR REFORM
To Be URGED
American Federation to Out
line Legislation 1t Hopes to
Have Introduced

ATLANTIC CITY, Sept. 14-The
executive council of the American
Federation of Labor prepared today
the fifth of its annual sessions, to
outline legislation which 1t hopes to
part Of its next years program.
AS the program has been devel-
oped thus far the labor chiefs expect
to concentrate their efforts in pro-
noting three amendments to the
constitution and other major legis-
lation aimed to make the consti-
tuition and laws more flexible and
better able to meet the needs of the
people" They will include:
An amendment to the constitu-
ton intended to curb the injunc-
tion power vested in federal Off
cials as demonstrated in the pres
ent injunction against the rail shop
crafts. In this connection a nation
wide movement already Is under
way according to Matthew VOL
vice president of Federation to pave
the way for added strike injunc-
tion legislation.
An amendment fixing sixteen
years as the minimum age for child
laborers and authorizing congress
to raise the minimum age as con-
ditions warrant.
An amendment giving congress
power to repass and thus legalize
laws which may be enacted and then
declared unconstitutional by the
United States Supreme Court.
Repeal of the Sherman Antitrust
law, which. according to members
of the council has been used to de-
prive the toilers of their natural
rights instead of to prevent illegal
combinations in restraint of trade
Legislation to prohibit the enact
ment of any law (which would deny
the right of the workers OF the
United States to organize for the bet
terment of their conditions; to deal
collectively with employers; or to
collectively withhold their patronage
and labor and induce others TO
do so.'
Also included in the national pro-
gram of the executive council to be
worked out through states will be a
drive through the legislatures to
bring about the repeal of the Kansas
industrial law and the Colorado in
dustrial commission as well as ac-
lively to combat efforts to inaugu-
rate similar statutes in other states.
Both of these industrial laws now
operating, the labor chiefs charac-
terized as equally dangerous and
obn noxious" in statement which
particularly denounced the Kansas
court as "the greatest fraud ever
perpetrated on the American
people"

city through this event was the prin-
cipal topic of discussion at noon to-

was not until Oylin Pierson and
George F. Reynolds. members of the
committee in charge of the concert,

ports inspired each member of the

sary to make the affair a history

and putting this organization on its
feet.
Bringing thousands of out of town
people to visit the city, some OF
whom. perhaps, have never been
here, and will see for the first time
the advantages to be obtained here
by coming more often.
Generally advertising the city.

of liquor with $56.000 in gold was

he was going from Nova Scotia to
Nassau, when the Taylor's crew
boarded him. He said he had just
delivered 1000 cases and was taking
the 100 seized cases back to Nassau,
because it had not been accepted by
the purchasers.
Belts said that he first thought the
prohibition boat was filled with pir-
ates and cleared his ship intending
to ram her. The revenue men turn
ed their searchlights on their own
ships, he said. and he allowed them
to come aboard.

See Great Revival

WASHINGTON, Sept. 14.--In an
nouncing the partial railway strike
settlement in Chicago, Secretary OF
Labor Davis gave out statement
which said in part:
american industry has overcome
the last obstacle in the way of the
greatest economic revival the nation
has ever known. With the settle
ment of the strike of 10000 railroad
shop craftsmen assured, the whole
industrial machinery of the country
is ready for an unprecedented for
ward movement.
The disturbances in the coal fields
are past and 600,0 miners are back
at work. Our Representatives in New
England advise that in the textile
workers strike there settlements are
rapidly enabling the mills to resume.
These three great disputes have been
the only hinderances to the nation iii
its recovery from the industrial de-
preston of a year ago.
To-day there are fewer strikes III
America than there have been IN
years. The commissioners of the
department are using their good Of
fees in only thirty-four pending in
dustrial disputes, involving some
10000.
1.-THE American workman faces a
period of plentiful employment. We
have put back to work the millions
OF idle who were seeking jobs yeac
ago. We have kept the general wage
level within a few per cent. of what
it was at its highest.
"The industrial strike has been our
greatest evil during the struggle for
industrial rehabilitation and against
q wage panic. Let us trust that
American employers and American
employees will find the means to
avoid this futile appeal to force in
their relations and will ioin hand-in-
hand in earnest cooperation for the
march to prosperity which lies just
ahead

visit of this famous musical organ
ization one to be remembered for
many years to come.
A feature of the day will be a
joint dinner of the Lion and Rotary
Clubs in the New Packer House 1t
o'clock. On that week there will
be no regular weekly luncheons of
the two organizations. The dinnar
will be something out of the ordin-
airy to which the lady friends and
wives of the members of the Two
clubs will be invited. The arrange
ments for the dinner have been turn
ed over to a committee consisting
of Stephen f. Somogyi, Louis p.
Booz, Jr.. and Irving j. Reimers.
The idea in making the event a
Visit Perth Amboy Day is to give
the people of the surrounding coun-
become acquainted with it's histori-
cal interests, theatres, shops and
resident districts. Hundreds of peo-
pie get their only impression of the
city when they ride through it on
the trains of either the Central or
Pennsylvania railroads. They catch
a fleeting glimpse of New Brunswick
avenue, Washington street, Smith
street and Market street and think
they have a fair conception of the
city.
With the visit of the Marine Band
these people will have an opportu-
nifty to hear the music poured forth
by this wonderful organization, free
of charge. and this will bring them
out, for it is indeed an honor to be
able to say that you have heard one
of the best bands in the world, and
in coming here to hear the band
they will see the other advantages to
be gained in Perth Amboy.
1t will give these people an oppor-
tunity to view the many high class
stores in the city. which will be
dressed up for the occasion and 70
visit the various theatres and res
turants, which today compare fav-
orably with others in the state. AL
in the entire city will be benefited
by the visit of the Marine Band, and
it is an opportunity offered once IN
life time to boost for home town.
