GAGE OF BATTLE OVER UNION
LABOR LAID DOWN IN DETR OFT
Holding of Convention in Center of Auto
mobile Industry Likely to Precipitate
Decisive Contest, Says Lynch.

This the gage of battle has been
laid down.
1t is the contention of organized
labor leaders that all advantages en-.
joyed by modern workers are due to
the efforts of trade unionists. Busi
ness and civic organizations of De.
troit have challenged this claim. 1t
was not expected that controversy
would be raised by the presence In
Detroit of officials of international
labor unions. but this has happened
Detroit has doubled in population
each 10 years since the century be
gan. It's bank clearings are nearly
ten billions. Advocates of the open
shop regard this as evidence in their
favor.
Green PropOunds Question.
But If the economic peace and
tranquility of the automotive industry
is satisfactory to the citiZenry of De
troit, why has the city elected a trade
unionist as mayor for the last two
terms?" asked President Green.

SEES FINGER PRINTING
AID IN CIVIL SERVICE
Commission Reports Method of
Character Investigation of Appli-
cants for Employment Effective.

Carrying through its program of fin
ger printing all applicants for Govern
ment employment to. all the large
cities, the Civil Service Commission
declared today that the improved
methods of character investigation of
applicants for Government employ
ment, of which finger printing is an
important part, are proving very
effective.
During the last fiscal year 1912
persons in the New England States,
comprising the first civil service dis.
trict, were barred from competing In
civil service examinations. Nine hnu'
dred and twenty of these were found
to have made false statements in their
applications regarding the existence OF
court records involving moral turpi
tude. Many others made false state
ments concerning age. date of birth
education and experience, and one
applicant, who said he had never
broken the law. was found to have
43 arrests against his name.
Comparison of the records Of the
commission district Office at Boston
with those of the commission on pro
baton which maintains a compilation

By the Associated Press.
DETROIT, Mich, October S.-The
American Federation of Labor con-
vention faced a new dilemma today in
q swelling tide of sentiment favoring
action disavowing the address of a
convention guest publicly charged by
a number of delegates with having
violated the courtesy of the floor.

Of the federation deliberated upon a

Mr.. Eddy was cordially greeeed by
the delegates as he took the platform,
but soon after adjournment. labor Of
ficers publicly expressed astonish-
ment at the nature and tone of his
remarks. and last night blocs of dele
gates gathered informally to outline
program looking to emphatic denial
that the address in any. manner re-
f1ected the sentiments of the conven-
ton.

marks Immediately preceding adjourn.
ment.
The official minutes of the conven
tion distributed today did not carry
Mr.. Eddy's address. Only a para
graph recorded his appearance before
the convention.
The official text read:
''Dr. Eddy addressed the convention

Association, but did not appear before

The organization last night unani-
mousiy adopted a report of it's com
mlttee on organization which includ-
eu a cali upon the executive council 10
iauncn the move for organization of
the motor field.
The plan provides for the establish
ment of a special organization, with
headquarters in a city in the automo-
die manufacturing zone, under the di-
rect control of officers of the interna-
tlonal unions, whose membership EN-
braces the automobile crafts. Crafts
would be disregarded for the period Of
organizing, according to James O'COn-
nell, president of the metal trades de-
partment. who explained that the in
dustry was so extensive in regard To
plant distribution and the number of
crafts involved, that organization by
craft international unions would be
difficult.
Detroit, as the scene of the new un-
dertaking. was urged by sponsors OF
the resolution.
