LABOR BEGINS
CAMPAIGN TO
PURGE RANKS
Is Death Knell of Groups
Who Live by Creating,
Breaking up Strikes
COMMUNISTS WITHIN
RANKS UNDER FIRE
BY CARL RUPE
United Press Staff Correspondent

MINNEAPOLIS, Oct. 81. (UP)
The American Federation of La
Dor yesterday declared a war of
determination on it's radical ele-
ments throughout the nation and
chose Minneapolis for the first
battle-ground of the campaign.
Meyer Lewis, personal repre-
sentative of William Greene,
president of the federation, all
nounced the campaign "to sound
the death knell of those parasitic
agencies and alliances whose very
existence depends upon creation
of, then breaking up of strikes"
He said he was bringing the "big
guns of the A. +. of L. to settle
once and for all Minneapolis la
Dor troubles"
With those few words, Lewis
set the A. F. of L. definitely in
opposition not only to radicals
who seized control of Truckers
Union No. STA here and precipi-
tated the bloody truckers strike
of 1884, but also to the Citizens
Alliance, an organization of in
dustrialists pledged to an open
shop policy. Union No. STA was
ousted from the A. F. of l. last
year.
Lewis proclaimed that the fed
eration's war on Communism,
opened in a city historically rad
ical in its labor and employer at
titudes, will spread ultimately to
every major city in the United
States.
"The initiation of the national
drive against Communism in the
city of Minneapolis" Lewis said,
'is another indication of the eff
forts of the American Federation
of Labor to bring into the en-
ployer and employee relationship
statesmanlike manner of han
ding labor difficulties"
The war is more than a Com
munistic purge, Lewis declared.
"When we get started it must
be fight also against those who
knowingly are furnishing the
weapons and ammunition to these
trouble makers"
1t must eliminate, he continued,
"those who by their actions are
precipitating and aggravating the
conditions of which the citizens
of Minneapolis are trying to rid
their city"
Again Lewis may have had ref
erence to the Citizens Alliance,
in whose bitter, adamant stand
against unionism he may have
seen reason for equally bitter OPP
position in which Communism
blossomed.
Lewis foresaw a slow struggle
"without undue haste" and indi-
Gated the A. f. of L. will attempt
to squeeze out the radical ele-
ment by vigorous campaigning in
its old, established unions and by
strong backing of new unions to
offset such organization as Truck
ers Union No. STA.
