Green Announces Plan Is
Major Portion of Legis-
Iative Program.
BY the Associate Press.


ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., August Is
The major portion Of the legislative
program Of the American Federation Of
Labor this year avowedly will be the
movement for the enactment Of q bill
at the next session Of Congress to regu-
late the use Of injunctionS in labor dis
putes
This was announced last night by
William Green, president Of the fedora
ton, after yesterdays session Of the
Executive Council had approved q pro-
posed regulatory bill
The bill would specifically prohibit
the use Of intunctions against strikes,
boycotts, the payment Of strike benefits,
sympathetic strikes, giving publicity to
labor disputes, meetings, threatening to
strike, urging workers to strike or join
unions and picketing.
Not to Be Conspiracy.
The bill declares none of these shall
be considered unlawful conspiracy and
no oflcer or member OF a union shall
be held liable for individual acts of
other members.
It states that courts may grant in
functions when unlawful acts have been
or may be committed, when property
damage is likely to follow and when the
injunction seeker has no adequate rem
cay at law.
1t limits temporary injunctions to
five days.
1t is provided that those granted in
junction in labor disputes must deposit
surety enough to compensate those re-
strained for loss and attorneys fees.
It makes appeals mandatory and
gives them precedence over all other
matters.
Contempt, Jury Trial.
IN cases of contempt 1t provides for
immediate trial by jury. except when
contempt Is committed IN the presence
of the court.
If the contempt consists of an attack
on the character of conduct of the
Judge and does not occur IN open court,
the defendant would be allowed, under
the bill, to demand the immediate with
drawal of the judge and have the case
continued by another judge to elm
mate the bias
Mr. Green said the last provision was
to assure q free press.
