NON BIPARTISAN
GROUP PLANS
LAB0RPARTY
International News Service

A"tchhhtiUHhi news SVi"Oo
An American Labor Party. mod
elled somewhat along the lines Of
the British but with sufficient
variations to make it applicable
to the peculiaritieS of the Ameri-
can political system, is the ulti-
mate objective of labor's Non
Partisan League which concluded
its first convention here today.
1t may be labelled the Labor
Party, the Liberal Party, or, if an
alliance can be effected with the
numerous agrarian organizations,
it may be called by some other
name that will express such an
alliance of primary producers.
But whatever the label, the seed
of a new political movement was
planted here. The history Of 1910
or 1914 may show it.
For this campaign, labor's Non
Partisan League is content with
the candidacy of President RooSe-
velt and will support it vigorously
with money and effort. But the
progenitorS of the movement
John L. Lewis, head of the United
Mine Workers, and Sidney Hill
man, head of the Clothing Work
erS, who are now challenging the
old leadership of the labor forces
in this country-are looking be-
yond 1886 and even beyond 1910.
To Back Roosevelt
Lewis, Hillman and their aSSo-
ciates expressed either directly or
indirectly the belief that after
1886" a new political alignment
may be necessary in this country
to protect the gains that labor
has made under the Roosevelt
Administration, and to 60 on to
further benefits.
For that reason, they said, the
organization perfected here will
be placed on permanent basis,
with central headquarters,
State branches. speakers bu-
reaus. and all the trappings of
an orthodox political party.
They insisted that the word
"non-partisan" meant just what
it said. While admitting they
are non-partiSan in this cam
paign, supporting Mr.. Roosevelt
in preference to Governor Ian
don, they said 1910 or 1914 may
be entirely a different story, so
far as a choice between the two
old parties is concerned. They
meant by that a Republican
nominee for the Presidency of
the type of the late Bob LaFol-
lette would command their sup
port in preference to any con-
servative Democrat.
Lewis, Hillman & Co. want labor
to take a stand as labor, support
ing his friends and opposing those
whom it conceiveS to be its enc
mics, irrespective of old political
labels.
They are now bent upon organ
izing the now unorganized steel,
rubber and automobile industries |
Independently of the Federation.
If successful-and it is a big if
they will have dealt what many
consider to be a body blow to the
Federation, and immeasurably re-
inforced their ranks for future
political struggles.
The conference here was told |
that labor already holds the bal
ance of power in such important |
States politically as New York, |
Pennsylvania, Kentucky, Illinois
and West Virginia. And it was pre-
dicted by George L. Berry, presi-
dent of the league, that in short |
time labor will hold a similar bal
ance of power in California, Wash
ington, Nevada, Utah and other
States.

new impetus yesterday with his an
nouncement of the discovery of what

McCabe said he would ask that

had bounded him for many months

with Gov. Henry Horner today on
the appointment of citizens prison
investigating committee.
State Legislator Richard j. Lyons
said he would asi similar inquiry
when the Legislature convenes to-
morrow.
McCabe said he had received reports
of the alleged plot to blow up the
prison from Loeb's fellow convicts.
He reiterated he was not satisfied
with Convict Days account of the
killing of Loeb and said he would
seek permission to subject Day to
tests under the lie detector.
The alleged escape plot recalled a
similar incident five years ago. when
a crude bomb. constructed from a
large oil can filled with gasoline and
OIL was found buried near one of the
prison walls.
: Charge Of Privileges.

Joliet, which began with the death Of
Loeb, confessed thrill slayer" with
Nathan Leopold of Bobby Franks, pre-
cipitated charges that the pair en-
joyed unusual privileges because both
> were members of wealthy families.
McCabe alleged that Edward Skep-
lowski, cellmate of Loeb, had manu-
factured and secreted cans of ex-
plosives in the prison grounds. The
explosives supposedly were made of
celluloid, which Skeplowski was per-
mitted to use in the manufacture for
sale of novelty trinkets. McCabe said
the celluloid was dissolved in chem
icals drained from prison fire extin-
guishers.
McCabe said he would demand that
the prison yard be dug up in a search
for the reported explosives.
