Especial to Twin City Review
Portland, Ore, Oct. 1l.-Musie,
oratory and applause in western
abundance marked the opening of the
fofty-thifd convention of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor. Never was
convention more ausplci0usly
opened.
While the great gathering rose to
its feet in cheers and while the radio
apparatus carried his words out
through vats spaces, President Com
pers laid down the paramount issues
in his opening speeches.
The address dealt with:
Child labor, which must be
abolished.
2.-The Reds-American labor must
90 forward under the law.
3.-The farmers. who were urged
to organize, in order that through un-
derstandingn with labor there may be
elimination of the exploitation OF
both.
The address in part follows:
"Modern history, modern industrial
development has brought in lis wake
not only the great civillzing lniiu.
ences, but it has brought evils OF
great moment and menace. There can
be no greater menace to the progress
and civilization of our time than the
sacrifice of young and innocent chill
dren upon the altar OF Mammon.
The conscience of the American peo-
pie has ben awakened, and a cry has
gone forth from one end Of America
to the other that the child life OF our
country must be conserved at all
hazards.
End Child Labor.
"To say to this universal demand
Of our people that the Constitution
of the United States Is impotent fer
the people to protect the children OF
our time is begging the question. The
courts have decided that two laws
which the Congress Of the United
States enacted upon the demand 81
the people Of our country for the
passage of laws to protect children
and minors from undue exploitation
are null and void, that the people
through their chosen representatives
cannot pass a law 10 protect the
child life of America, the children OF
today upon whom the perpetulty oi
our Republic and our civilization de-
pend-that is to lay the greatest IN
/ dietment against our competency.

Council of the American Federation

Railroads Stand Pat.

New York.-Railroad executives
and fnaneiers favor no changes in the
transportation act at the coming ses-
sion Of congress. They have claimed
that they are handicapped "by too
much regulation and too many laws"
That this is but a sympathy plea Is
indicated By the decision to stand
pat" on the railroad act.
The managers believe, it is stated,
that if the matter is brought on the
floor of the next congress, the "radi-
Gals will cut the law to pieces" The
law was jammed through congress
with the aid Of the greatest lobby
ever assembled in TIRE capital, and
backed by a vast system Of propagan-
da through newspapers and pam
phlets. The railroads are not willing
to risk losing this effort by suggest
ing minor amendments which they
profess are necessary. This. how
ever, may be part Of the campaign
to keep hands eff an act that IS salts
factory TO the financiers.
