LABOR CONFERENCE
ASKS EXPLANATION
Federation of Federal Employees
Blamed for Distributing Con-
demnatory Resolution.

The national officers of the Fedora
tion of Federal Employees were called on
last night by the Joint Conference on
Affliation with the American Fedora
ton of Labor to explain why they sent
to all member unions a resolution
adopted by Federal Employees Union,
No. 2. condemning the joint conference
and did not broadcast similarly other
resolutions lauding the work of the con-
ference.
The conference termed the resolution
Of Union No. 2 unconstitutional and
''in defiance of every principle of JUS
tice and parliamentary procedure" The
resolution, it was said, was drafted at
the bidding Of the national officers of
the federation and was uniformed and
malice-inspired"
The joint conference cited resolutions
indorsing its work sent to the national
officers by other local unions and de-
manded an explanation of why these
favorable expressions were not distrlb-
uted TO the membership of the National
Federation OF Federal Employees.
