LABOR POWER,
GREEN AYERS
Workers Urged to Go
To Polls I'm Talk
BY President

CLEVELAND. Sept. 3.-lR-De-
claring that labor possesses a poten-
tial power in political and economic
fields, President Green of the Amer
lean Federation Of Labor urged in a
Labor Day address today that work
ing men and women everywhere
make IL a matter OF special interest
70 20 TO the polls on election day and
cast their votes"
In addition he hailed extension OF
the five-day week as the outstand-
ing accomplishment Of the year, ex-
pressed qualification that ian in
.c~reasingly large number Of people
are accepting labor's point of view
regarding wages" denounced the use
of injunctions in industrial disputes
and appealed to the government to
cooperate with the Federation in
finding means OF avoiding unemploy-
ment.
Although emphasizing the non
partisan stand OF the Federation
itself, Mr. Green declared that be-
cause of the many legislative mat
tiers In which labor is interested. IL
was imperative that working people
give particular attention to congress
soinal candidates and examine their
records thoroughly. All available
information will be gathered and
supplied he said, by the Federation's
n~on-partisan political committee.
IF ] would consider any character
Of advice mor important than any
other Green continued,
1T would be to suggest that work
ing men and women think most Sc
rlously Of the political and economic
situation which confronts them. The
welfare and happiness Of millions Of
people must depend upon decisions
which viii be made and policies
which vii be pursued. Labor pos
sesses a potential power in the DO
litical and economic fields. If this
power q be made active and can be
centralized ! am sure that the bal
ance Of power upon such decisions.
as may be made, can be exercised
by labor"
