LABOR NOT TO BE POLITICAL PARTY
AZ. OF |. Agrees to This Reso'
 IutiOn Without Debate
' The Associated Press.

Ine AEtoCldfed fTeSf'
 Fl Paso. Texas, Nov c4.--The American Federation of Labor con- vention turned to its most important business today upon entering it's second week.
 Committee recommendation on political activity, foreign affairs and international labor relations were among those ready for consideration. The committee on the report of the executive council voted last night to accept without amendment the special report submitted Thursday recommending adherence to a non- partisan political policy and rain- tenance of the campaign machinery set up in the general elections.
 At the same time the committee on resolutions approved a final re- port in which two declarations in favor of adherence to a labor party were rejected.
 A resolution declaring against any participation in agenceis esta blished by the League of Nations or the world court brought international relations before the delegates. Previous conventions have de- clared in favor of the world court but spokesmen of the international Scasen's union introduced reso- lution asking condemnation of the eague, passing their opposition on the ground that It's agencies sought to curb advancement in international regulations governing seamens codes.
 Two resolutions asking re-estab- lishment of trade relations with Soviet Russia also were before the committee.
 A short meeting of the executive council yesterday named dele gation of six to represent the American federation in the convcn- tion Of the Pan-American Federation of Labor opening at Mexico City. December 3.
 President Samuel Gompers will head the delegates. Secretary Frank Morrison, Presidents William Green, Matthew Woll, and Martin Ryan and John P. Frey, | officer of the International MouIders 1 Union Of North America and edito, of the Moulders' Journal, will be the others.

 The printing of tho Spanish edi- ton of the pamphlet about 2,ooo,- 900 copies--was finished Saturday night, but up to today Ibanes was uncertain whether a single copy had crossed the Pyrenees. Nevertheless, he affirms that an attempt will be made soon to distribute rto pam phlets by airplane. He says he Is amazed by the generous offers of help which had been made to him since the announcement Of the pamphlets publication.
 Ills projected Spanish republic the novelist said, would be inspired by the example of the French revo. lution. ..
 But the only thing socialistic we would do," he said, would be tc appropriate the great landholding' of the nobles and give to each peas- ant sufficient land for tilling pur. poses instead of permitting the vast tracts to be used for pasturage ot wild bulls destined for the bull ring You know. a wild bull covers lot of territory and he must have plenty Of leewsy to remain wild enough foi fighting.
