. F. OF L. CLOSES CONVENTION BY RE-ELECIING OFFICERS
PRIEST OPPOSES
 INJUNCTIONS IN LABOR DISPUTES

Washington, Nov. 29.-Congress should enact a. law forbidding federal injunctions in labor disputes, and the states should enact similar statutes against injunctions within their juris- dictions, says John A Ryan, director, social action department, National Catholic Welfare conference, in an ar ticle in the current issue of Columbia
 the organ of the Knights of Columbus.
 Father Ryan declares that the legis7 lative, not the judicial power, should be employed to deal with wrongful acts committed during industrial dis putes. He points out that the recent decision of the federal supreme court merely upheld the right of jury trial for vio1ators of strike injunctions issued by federal judges; if did not secure that right for violators of injunctions from state courts, nor did 1t hinder the issu- ance of injunctions from either source.

Prevention
 First Urged By Labor

Chicago, Nov. 2o.-"It is encouraging to note that traction companies of late are taking accident prevention promition more seriously than heretofore, says Editor Bland of the Union Leader, pub lished by the Amalgated Association of Street and Electric Railway Em-ployes.
 There was a time when this move ment consisted mostly of chatter at com pany dinners, designed only for public consumption through the press. The economic side of this problem, however, has forced practical and earnest effort upon the part of the companies and good results are now being obtained
 Tt is quite amusing to old trade unionists to observe the lacg of under standing of some of the men now in terested in accident prevention promo ton of the pioneer work done ln this field and of the disregard of its neces- sitv by the companies in the old days. To hear some of these fellows talk, this kind of promotion would appear to be new thing, for which the companies are now taking great credit. Well, 1t is a comparatively new thing-to the companies-and we are glad that they have seen the light.
 "The trade union, if you please, was the pioneer in accident prevention pro- motion. Tn the mine, the shop, the fac tory, on the railroad, and in every branch of industry where trade union ism has prevailed, there the constant eff forts of the unions have been to have safeguards that would prevent acci- dents.
 Did the old-time employers respond They did-when they were forced to, through costly and bitter strikes and legislative enactment"

In all there were about 300 present, and the en- tertainment afforded every opportunity for a splendid time.

MOST INSPIRING
 SIGHT OF AGES
 ON AT FL PASO
Exchange of Greetings Between Amer ican and Mexican Labor Never
 to Be Forgotten.
By CHESTER M. WRIGHT.

Fl Paso, Tex, Nov. 29-Every argu- ment used in bringing the American Federation of Labor convention to Fl Paso has been justified. Mexican and American workers have grasped hands across the international border in fra ternal solidarity and understanding l It was a day upon which the spirits | of the pioneers must have looked down l in benediction and gratihcation Hopes were being realized. Struggles and sac rihces were being rewarded. Great souls were witnessing one of the in spring sights of all times.
 The delegates to the convention of the Mexican Federation of Labor marched across the river to join with men and women of labor were greeted on the international bridge by Amer ican representatives of labor. The Mexican Eagle was met on the bridge by the Stars and Stripes.
 Then the Stars and Stripes met the Mexican Eagle. It was the Mexicans who stood with joyous faces at the center of the bridge, waiting for the marching Americans to cross. It was a Mexican band that blared out well come and a fraternal salute. It was a Mexican reception committee that led way to the convention hall in Juarez- the ample Casino, where 1,500 men and women gathered to join their hopes and aspirations through the resonant voices of their leaders.
 President Juan Ricd of the Mexican conventio !, opened the meeting. It was a gathering to be remembered Amer jeans and Mexicans, men and women of all trades and occupations, sat and stood in every available inch of the great meeting place. All were happy. All wore upon their faces look of great rejoicing. They were seeing a demonstration of good will of com mon understanding, of common effort.
 They were seeing and hearing the manifestations of common destiny and common faith
 They were joining their battalions in one great crusade for human free dom, for justice, democracy, better lives and freeT 1ives-for all of the innum-

May Cut Out Wastes
 And Not Cut Wages

New York, Nov. 29.-Wall street has finally heard of the terrific wastes in industry and suggestions are made that these wates be cut, rather than wages.
 Apparently the idea is held among industrial leaders" says one financial writer, "that the prevailing cot basis, in view of immigration restrictions, can be reduced to better advantage through high operating economy rather than in paying employees less"
 Textiles is the one industry that persists in following the old course Wages are being lowered in morgan ized mills, though President Mo Mahon of the United Textile Workers has cha11eneged these employers to eliminate waste and put their plants on modern basis, rather than lower the purchasing power of employees.

WEAKEN CONGRESS
 IS BIG BIZ PLAN

New York, Nov 2o-The Wall Street Journal voices the financial worlds op- position to "tinkering with the consti- tution"-unless said "tinkering" re- stricts the peoples power.
 Tn that case the "tinkering" IS states manship of the highest order.
 The w. s. J. wants two changes i'll the constitution It wants the Presi- dent to have the power to veto specific items in appropriation bills without being obliged to return the whole measure to congress, and. 1t wants things fixed so that when the President calls an extra session of congress, he can dictate to congress what the law making branch may consider.
 The veto power over any approprla- tion would be an abandonment of the age-long principle that law-making bodies control the nations purse strings This has been the great re- straining power that the legislative branch has always held over the ex- ecutive.
 The two suggestions of the Wall Street Journal are in accord with its declaration of June 10, 1924: Business proposes that the President shall gov ern the United States and is taking steps to make its will effective

IMMIGRATION LAW
 MUST MEET FOES

Washington, Nov 29-"An elastic immigration policy is part of the leg islative program of the United States chamber of commerce, which has been placed before President Coolidge
 Other recommendations are: Ship subsidy, opposition to the Howell Barkley bill, repeal of the publicity feature of the income tax law and a national commission to study federal taxation.
 The chambers immigration policy would be in the hands of a commits sion which would recommend "a cer- tain leeway, both above and below the fixed quota" according to business conditions, as viewed by the commits sion.
 This immigration policy, when con sidered in conjunction with the inn migration policy of the National Man ufacturers' Association, indicates that business interests are determined to weaken, if not destroy, the present quota law.
 The manufacturers plan was ex- plained by their attorney, James E.. Emery, before a congressional com mittee, early this year MT. Emery said the law should permit employers to go abroad place men under con tract abroad, on wages that would seem satisfactory abroad, and bring them here if 1t could be shown to commission that like labor could not be secured in this country.
 In opposing this plan. A. F. of L. showed that under the conditions of contracts such as could be secured in distracted Europe at this time, Hike labor" at the wages for which labor could be secured there could not be found in this country.
 The trade unionists also pointed out that the manufacturers policy would result i'll driving American labor out of all industry and converting the in dustria1 centers of this country into huge contract concentration camps.

Italian Workers Rejoin Unions As
 Fascist Weaken

By International Labor News Service.
 Washington, D. C., Nov. 22.-Giustiz- zia, the Italian labor paper, reports a big revival of the trade union movement in Italy, coincident with internal dissen- ton in the ranks of the Fascist and a growing opposition to their rule.
 "The reconstruction of the trade unions" 1t writes, "is in full swing; the workers are streaming back into the bona fde trade unions, especially the meta1-workers, textile workers and building workers.
 Both in Venice and Savona trades councils have been re-established One of the chief factors in this change IS the internal disintegration of the Fas- cist Trade Union Movement The illu- sion that the Fascist organizations can or will do anything for the workers IS now quite at an end"
 Giustizzia calls upon the bona fde trade unions to prove themselves worthy of their returning members. The work CTS must be brought to realize the nec- essity for stricter discipline the mis- takes of the past must be avoided in the future.
 Both the leaders and the rank and file must set to work openly and cour- ageously to correct their former faults This will be guarantee for better future for the whole movement"
