BY the Associated Press.
ATLANTIC CITY, October 15.-
Officials of the American Federation
of Labor saw today in the amicable
settlement of the building trades con-
troversy the basis of new machinery
for composing future labor troubles in
the construction industry.
The agreement, reached with the
aid of George M. Harrison, mediator,
was announced at the federation con-
vention yesterday.
The groups, one headed by M. j..
McDonough and the other by j. w.
Williams, agreed to name three mem
bers of committee Of six to attempt
to compose jurisdictional differences
in their industry. When agreements
are reached a convention will be called
to make them effective and reorganize
the building trades department.
Deadlock Break Provided.
Should the. committee become dead
locked a seventh impartial member.
chosen by mutual agreement with
Harrison's aid, would function.
General federation approval OF the
settlement of the year-old controversy
was expressed in the cheers and ap-
plause of delegates and by William
Green. federation president.
Harrison disclosed that he used the
same mediating method Of keeping
fighting groups ignorant of their op-
ponentS' views as practiced in his
union, the railway mail clerks.
Attention of the delegates turned
quickly to the conflict of craft organi-
zation against industrial unionism.
The decision of the Resolutions Com
mittee, by an 8-to-7 vote, to report a
resolution reaffirming the federation's
policy in the controversy, was inter-
preted by both sides as victory.
Pledge Craft Protection.
The resolution Endorsed organization
of mass production workers in indus
trial unions, but pledged protection
for rights of existing craft unions.
John L. Lewis of the United Mine
Workers, leader of the industrial union
movement, saw a gain for his cause in
the close vote. Craft unionists, ex-
pecting to win in the convention with
superior voting power, interpreted the
committees action as favorable to
them.
The resolution vii be debated to-
morrow afternoon on the convention
floor. The committee minority will
offer a substitute to give industrial
unions Jurisdictions over mass produc-
ton workers irrespective of craft or
trade"

manent organization last night and
