BOULDER DAM
BY International News Service

BY. international News Service
LOS ANGELES, Oct. 1s.-The
vision of a Government-built Boulder
Dam with potential. power greater
than that of Niagara Falls reared
itself in the American Federation of
Labor Convention today as unsur-
mountable obstacle to organized
labor's solution OF Colorado River
development problems.
Labor's traditional objection to
Government ownership in industry
ard the contention that the three
resolutions before the convention
are Inadequate in dealing with the
Boulder Dam issue may result in
no definite action being taken by
the federation to indorse the project
when the measures are called up on
the floor today.
The main fight over the Colorado
River. problem looms in a promised
attack on the resolution by State
Senator Daniel c.. Murphy, of San
FRANCISCO. seeking support for the
Swing-J Johnson bill in the next SEES
sion of, Congress.
This. bill, ci1ampioned before the
convention by its co.author, United
States Senator Hiram w. Johnson,
provides for the Government con-
struction of a 550.foot dam in BouI-
der Canyon.
