When we are on our daily stroll in
the park we all sit quietly for a
minute, each with his eyes shut.
Then in turn we tell what we have
heard and often we all have a diff

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 1.-THE
Labor Party issue forced itself
upon the attention of the conven-
tion today. Max Hayes of the
Typographical Union spoke bitter
ly of the recommendations for nom
partisanism" in the executive coun-
Gil report and reminded Vice Pres
ident Woll that he cooled his heels
in the ante-roOm of the republican
convention for three days before he
was told to "go to hell"
President Green replied by say
ing that Labor Party never got
anywhere but that American social
legislation compares with any in
the world. President John H. Walk
er of the Illinois Federation of
Labor came g the mourners bezch
with the statement that he was
once blind like Hayes" but now he
knows better. Walkers support of
Frank L. Smith, the insult traction
interest candidate for senator, in
the last elections is evidence of his
change of heart.
Old Andy Furuseth objected to
the executive councils statement
that the employers were friendlier
to labor and warned that there was
coming an offensive designed to
drive the workers back to slavery.
The convention may adjourn next
Thursday.
LOS ANGELES, Oct. II. = Lines
were being tightly drawn today in the
American Federation of Labor conven-
ton for the impending fight over the
Boulder Dam issue.
Determined opposition to any en-
dorsement by organized labor of the
Swing Johnson bill for a government
built dam in Boulder Canyon has pro-
vided the only controversy in the con-
vention in which all real opposition to
the administration is barred by the
anti-"Red" crusade.
The dispute centers on the resolution
by State Senator Daniel G. Murphy of
San Francisco pledging the support of
organized labor to Colorado River de-
velopment projects and favoring pas
sage of the Swing johnson bill at the
next session of congress.
Johnson Advocates Bill.
Senator Hiram Johnson, one of the
sponsors of the bill, was himself a
