ORGANIZED LABOR PRAISES WILSON IN
 GLOWING TRIBUTE
By International Labor News Service

Washington, D. C., Feb. I6.-One hundred trade union officials and representatives speaking for all of the organized workers in the United tive council chamber of the American Federation of Labor building to pay tribute to the memory of Woodrow Wilson. Through the Pan American Federation of Labor, the organized workers of Latin America also ex- pressed their sense of loss. The meeting was called by Presi- dent Gompers who was named chair man of committee to arrange suit able labor participation in the funerai ceremonies.
 A declaration expressive of La bor's sentiments was adopted by the unanimous vote of the assemblage, as follows:
 With Washington and Lincoln, Woodrow Wilson belongs to the |ages. Speaking in the name of the 
 oger our tribute to the great leader who has passed from us.
 The wage earners of America will forever cherish the memory of Wood sentative of the idalism upon which our Rpublic is founded and of the spirit of indomitable purpose and honesty whicr is at the heart of America.
 Woodrow Wilson was our great leader during the dark days of war; the leader under whose guidance the free people of the world came to un- derstand the true issues involved in that titantic conflict. The burden which he bore in the great struggle for human freedom crushed him and left thim the saddest casualty of the war But it was not only in war that his heart beat high with resolve for human betterment, he was ever the great idealist, ever the noble fighter for democracy, justice and human progress. ne 1nSllluIlOnS OI Ou' country bear the indelible impress of his leadership, of his courage and wis ion. Legislation that marked a great turning point in the lives of our people came into being under his leadership. The Seamen's Act which freed the last bondman of America and the Clayton Act which asserted that the labor of human being is not commodity, are monuments to his humanitarian leadership and to his devotion to the cause of industrial freedom and social justice. Americas wage earners bow the1r heads in tribute to the fallen leader They mourn a great citizen, great champion of truth and of righteous ness. The humble ones of the world have lost an understanding friend and an unfaltering champion. But the idealism, the nobility of spirit the example of devotion to duty, vii live forever. inspiring men and womer always. leading them always to great
 CT deeds and letter lives. Woodrow
 Wilson lived for the people and the
 people fer all time will cherish tn,
 heritage which he has left them.

Even ter in the Elm City any inconvenience because every man available is employed by independent contractors who on there part have refused to have anything to do with the Builders Exchange so the Or ganized craft all over the state can we'll be said to be in forishing condition.
 The election of officers resulted in two men being elected to the board. Accord ing to custom President John L. Rich ards of New Haven retired and First Vice-President Herbert w. Garnsey of Derby was chosen president. In MT. Garnsey's place as first vice president, Second Vice President Thomas H. Rus sell of Hartford was moved up, thus leaving vacancy as second vice-presi- dent. A friendly contest arose for the office but it was decided by the election or Charles K. Anderson, New Haven 79.
 Secretary George Chandler of Green wich was returned again that being now an almost routine performance by the convention, MT. Chandler having held the office so long as to be now almost in- vauabe in the pace. In the office of Treasurer another vacancy occurred in the retirement of Treasurer John L.

 Thomas M. Guerin of Troy, N. Y., member of the International executive board, was present at the convention and addressed the members not only on con ditions in the trade generally, but also on the new home for the aged and the pension system recently instituted. The carpenters have purchased nearly 600 acres at Lakeland. Fla, as the site for the new home and MT. Guerin stated that it is not only already a valuable property but that can readily be turned into a very resirahle home for members but with its possibilities in fruits and other lines on the big acreage, can be made practically self supporting also Not only will it meet the requirements for years to come for superannuated members but will also be fine invest n,ent for the organization for all time he declared
