While the administration thus at

president. This is revealed in the
heated three hour debate in Tuesday S

catholic democrats and protestant
democrats. In the meantime the adj
ministration looked on gleefully in the
knowledge that the democrats were
snlit and that the foreign issues are
being displaced by home campaign

one by one to belittle talk of the war
and defend the knights of Columbus.
The republicans, for the most part,
staid out of the debate. 1t was clear
to everyone that the speeches against

CALL FOR AUTO
union PARLEy
No Reply to Charges of
Furriers

Especial to The Daily Worker)
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla, Jan. 1e.-
A conference Of heads Of unions hav-
ing jurisdiction over various depart
ments of the automobile Industry has
been authorized by the executive
council Of the American Federation of
Labor In session here. The confer
ence will deal with the problem Of
organizing the industry and will be
held in Washington.
The automobile industry is the
third largest in the country and en-
ploys more than a million workers,
not including those employed by dis
tributing agencies nor in maintenance
work in garages. The fact that. the
industry is growing steadily and that
it is dominated by non-union, or So
called American plan shops has long
been thorn in the side of organized
labor.
Other considerations which influence
ed the federation are the high degree
of specialization and the steady
growth of mass production within the
industry, which they charge tends to
increase the output of the workers
without corresponding increase in
their nav.
