Sailors Union of the Pacific, tele-
graphed the United States Conference
Of Mayors from San Francisco today
the union cannot arbitrate the funda-
mental principles" involved in the cur
rent maritime strike.
Replying to the suggestion Of nine
mayors of East and West Coast cities
that both sides in the controversy SUBJ
NIT the issues to arbitration by boards
to be named by the President. Lunde-
berg said the sailors union had "unan-
imously reaffirmed" its stand at a
meeting Of 1900 members in which it
was decided they could not arbitrate
fundamental principles"
Mayor william J. McCracken OF
Oakland, Calf, one Of the nine mayors
who signed the arbitration proposal,
said he interpreted Lundeberg's tele-
gram as fiat rejection" to arbitrate
the question of jurisdiction over hiring
halls.
To Consider Telegram.
McCracken said the group Of seaport
Mayors had not met yet to consider
Lundberg's telegram or to determine
a future course Of action.
Commenting on the Lundberg tele-
gram, Mayor Fiorello H. La Guardia
of New York issued a stat,ment say
ing the Mayors suggestion of arbi-
tration remains open," should direct
settlement negotiations in San Fran
cisco fail.
IF pending direct negotiations will
bring the matter to a speedy, definite
and satisfactory conclusion. fine!" La
Guardia said. IF not, do not deem
the reply as unalterable. And in that
event, our suggestion remains open."
Confer at White House.
kilograms outlining the suggestion
Of the mayors were sent after an all
afternoon conference yesterday at the
White House with the President and
with Secretary of Labor Perkins, at
tended by La Guardia, Mayor Angelo
RoSsi Of San Francisco and Mayor
Joseph Carson of Portland, Greg.
They were signed by these three and
five others: Mayors Shaw of Los An
geles, Wilson of Philadelphia, Mans
field of Boston, Ellenstein Of Newark
and McCracken Of Oakland, Calf.
Before the messages were sent, La
Guardia made it clear to reporters
that the Eastern and Western situ-
ations were different, and that no
action could be taken concerning the
Atlantic and Gulf walkouts until the
Pacific strike was ended.
Plea for Arbitration.
The appeal read:
I'VE. the undersigned mayors of the
Pacific Coast and the Atlantic and
Gulf Coast seaport cities. feel that
the seamef,'s strike has reached such
a point of public interest the public
is not only concerned but materially
and substantially damaged.
ITO continue the present deadlock
will result in irreparable loss to the
men. the ship operators. merchant
marine, and each of our cities.
I'VE therefore now publicly request
all sides concerned in this controversy
to submit all their differences to
arbitration.
upon receipt by US Of assurance
from all sides to abide by such arbi-
tration, We will Immediately request

LEWIS CONSIDERS
LABOR SP[ITFUND
Stands on Announcement
Mine Workers Already
Out of A. F. L.

John L. Lewis, head Of the United
Mine Workers Of America and chair
man of the Committee for Industrial
Organization, today stood on the an
nouncement that he already considers
his union out OF the American Fedora
tion of Labor, and expects the sever
ance Of relations to aid in the organi-
cation campaigns in the steel, auto
mobile and rubber industries.
The suspension order issued last
Summer by the executive council Of
the A. F. Of L., and which Is now be-
fore the federation convention in
Tampa, Fla, for approval, is tanta-
mount to expulsion because 1t denies
the U. M. w. and nine other unions
Of the c. I. o. any vote or voice in
convention affairs, Lewis declared at
a press conference yesterday.
However. workers in the mass pro-
duction industries will be encouraged
by expulsion of the c. I. o. unions
from the federation, knowing that
the threat Of being divided up into
many craft unions, in accordance with
traditional A. F. of L. policy, has been
averted by organization along indus
trial lines into large unions in each
plant, the U. M. w. head asserted.
Organizations Campaign.
At the same conference, which fol-
lowed the first days session of the
U. M. w. Executive Committee, Lewis
introduced Philip Van Gelder, secre-
tary Of the Industrial Union of Marine
and Shipbuilding Workers, a recent
c. I. o. aff1liate, who announced an
organization campaign among the
$4,000 men in that industry, over
which at least IL craft unions Of the
A. F. of L. now claim jurisdiction.
Lewis said the U. M w. Executive
Committee was considering plans for a
new coal bill for presentation to the
next Congress, and which would in
clude all the wage and hour provisions
of the Guffey bill, which failed of pas
sage in the last session, and probably
some additions.
Purchase of the University Club
Building at Fifteenth and I streets by
the U. M. w. for s275, 900 was approved
yesterday by the Executive Committee.
Lewis said plans for remodeling the
building, which will be vacated within
the next week or two with the merging
Of the University Club and the Racquet
Club, have not yet been completed, but
may possibly include addition of sew
eral stories. converting it into a mod
ern office building.
Space for C. I. o. Available.
Even without the additional of any
floors, the five-story club house will
provide more space than the U. M. w.
will need at present, leaving space
available for the c. I. o. headquarters
now in the Rust Building.
The summoning of William Green,
pdesident of the A. F. of L., to appear
before the U. M. w. Executive Commit
tee was for the purpose of reviewing
his publicly known acts and not to
try him for any. specific of1ense, Lewis
explained. Green. q member of the
Mine Workers Union for 80 yesrs,
has announced he will not attend the
hearing Wednesday because Of the
federation convention in Tampa, over
which he is presiding.

policy of general organization in all
industries. Such policy would be
drafted within go days.
Two Reading Resolutions.
From Reading, Pa, came two reso-
lutions proposing cooperation with
the c. I. o. and disappearing the sus-
pension action. From Cleveland came
pensions be lifted and that organiza-
ton drives be pressed in the mass
production industries. Endorsement Of
the c. I. o. is proposed in a West Vir-
ginia resolution.
The Brotherhood Of Sleeping Car
Porters asked in resolution that the
suspensions be lifted and that the c..
I. o. unions be invited to send dele
gates to the convention at once. Fol-
lowing this, it was proposed that the
steel organizing drive be intensified
with direction vested in committee
OF five headed by John l.. Lewis.
On the floor of the convention
proper, first speaker of the day was
David j. Lilienthal, director of the
Tennessee Valley Authority. He was
to be followed by Representative
James Meade, Democrat, of New York
and close friend of organized labor.
The rights of labor must be pro-
tected by constitutional amendment If
necessary, Mead told the convention
audience.
Make this crusade for economic Sc
curity the greatest fight since America
became free" the Buffalo legislator
concluded fervently as the delegates
rose to applaud him.
Besides the Frey resolution, the
17-man group headed by Matthew
Woll, president of the Photo En-
gravers, also had the memory of the
1mpassioned plea of yesterday by
Green for unity in the labor move
ment in America, and his directly
worded invitation to the Lewis group
to come back to the federation and
light out the issue in 'man-fashion.
Council Report Due Soon.
Before It soon will be that portion of
the Executive Councils report which
clearly, indicts the C. I. o. unions and
places upon them the responsibility for
cleaving the federation into warning
camps.
Before it, also, is the knowledge that
William L. (Big Bill) Hutcheson, pres
ident Of the Carpenters Union and
bitter personal foe of Lewis, has placed
himself on record by very direct inn
plication as not being desirous Of ex-
pelling the c. I. o. Hutcheson con-
trolls at least 5000 votes of a probable
voting total Of $4,000, and his influence
undoubtedly extends to many unions
beyond his own.
And perhaps bearing more weight
than all these factual circumstances
before the committee is the established
strategy of the federation throughout
the controversy. Consistently, they
have sought to make it appear that
the C. l. o. unions were leaving rather
than being cast out. If such strategy
is to be followed to its conclusion,
specific revocation of charters and
certificates of afflliation with the fed
Grafton would seem unlikely.
Instead, for instance, the committee
might recommend continuance of the
suspensions with the council author
lied to take future action as deemed
advisable. Already mirrored, this pos
sibility was gaining strength last night.
Membership of the committee does
not afford definite clue as to their
sympathies, but the appointment

POLICE HORSES ISSUE AT POLLS
Mounted Officers on Duty
 Presents Question for Milwaukee Voters

Milwaukee, CUP)-For the first time since the days when runaways were Q serious traffic problem, horses will be Q political issue at the polls here when Milwaukee votes November 3.
 Dobbin gaIloped into the 1886 campaign when Police Chief Jo- Seph T. KIuchesly ordered Mil- waukee's six mounted policemen dismounted and their steeds sold as "obSolete".
 For several years the late Chief, Jacob c. Laubenheimer, had kept the mounted officers on duty, al- though Socialist Mayor Daniel w. H0an vetoed all appropriations to support the horses, and they were forced to rely on contributions from business men for their up- keep.
 Hoan said they were Cos sacks. Laubenheimer admitted mounted policemen were good in strike duty but insisted their main job was to direct traffic. Kluchesky said "a mounted officer can't tag car as well as man on foot. :"
 Partisans cried politics. The demounting order was one of the first issued by Kluchesky, who a decade ago sat in the mayors of flee as bodyguard to Hoan. The non-partisan city council ordered 8 referendum on whether the horses should be reinstaetd in the police department, and dobbin be- came an election issue.
