Mr.. Arnold S. lander, presi-
dent of the American Federation
Of State, County and Municipal
Employees, has allowed himself to
slip into something of a jam with
fellow leaders of the labor move
ment within jurisdiction of the
American Federation Of Labor.
It seems that Mr.. Zander at
tended the recent convention Of
the Civil Service Assembly at Gin
cinnati, where leaders of Govern
ment personnel units throughout
the country gathered to discuss
mutual problems. While there, he
allowed himself to be photo
graphed in the same group with
Luther C. Steward, leader Of
large organization of Federal
workers which Summarily with
drew from the A. F. Of L. some
while ago.
Since Steward has been contin-
uous thorn in the A. F. L. side ever
since, Zander's affiliated group
leaders are very peeved over what
was probably an inadvertant &C
ton. They disapprove of any hint
or resumption of peace between
the A. F. L. and Steward. Numer-
GUS protests demanding eXplana-
ton are said to be en- route to
Zander's Madison, Wis, office.
It's in the bag according to
the Democratic Women's National
Council.
They've arranged an excursion
trip for Democrats who wish to
spend Election Day in New York
to watch the celebration there"
