SAYS EMPLOYERS
VIOLATE CODES
Representative Wood De-
cIares Collective Bargain
ing is Ignored.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
Wholesale violation of the collective
bargaining requirement Of N. r. A.
agreements was charged in the House
yesterday by Representative Wood,
Democrat, of Missouri.
In a 30-minute defense of the aims
and accomplishments of organized
labor, Wood contended conspiracy"
was behind the efforts of industrialiSts
to defeat the recovery laws guarantee
of employe freedom to organize and
bargain.
Reply to Charges.
His speech, for which he received
unanimous consent Of the House last
week, was in reply to what he termed
certain unfounded charges" made
recently by Representative Blanton,
Democrat, Of Texas against the Amer
ican Federation of Labor.
Among the more than 800 codes Of
fair competition that have been ap-
proved" Wood declared, there have
been thousands of violations on the
part Of employers, both large and
small.
Betrayal after betrayal on the part
Of the employers has piled up to a
staggering figure, and it is indeed re-
markable that the continuance of be-
trayals and antagonism to the pro-
visions of section IA - has not
ELECTED thousands of strikes through
out the United States.
1T is an everlasting tribute to the
intelligent leadership of the American
labor movement and the splendid
discipline. loyalty and devotion of the
wage-earners to the President of the
United States that the num-
ber Of strikes has been vastly below
normal"
Praises Patriotism.
Hitting at what he interpreted as
Blantons charges that the A. F. of L.
tried to incite the automobile work.
ers to strike, Wood said the settle
ment Of that threatened strike was
largely due to the cooperation and
patriotism of the labor organization
and the Judgment of its president,
William Green, and the Auto Work
ers' Union representatives.
Representative Blanton made a brief
reply to Woods speech.
II did lead fight to try to get
the A. F. of L. to get rid of such
Anarchists as William Foster" he
said, land, thank God, it had enough
sense to kick him out and he has
not been back since"
