Will Set Up Councils Among
Agriculture and White
Collar Workers.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
The American Federation OF Labor
intends to start counter attack on
c. l. o. organizing efforts among agri-
cultural and white collar workers.
William Green, A. F. Of l.. president,
announced yesterday he would set up
federation councils in both fields to
correlate drives against the Committee
for Industrial Organization, headed
by John L. Lewis
So far, there has been no national
A. F. OF L. organization among either
agricultural or white collar workers.
A. F. Of l.. members In each group
were taken into locals directly AZ
fliated with the federation.
Applications Rejected.
A group OF these locals in each field
repeatedly has applied for 4 national
union charter, but the federation has
turned them down on the ground the
unions were not strongh enough for
independence.
Lewis invasion Of this territory with
the United Agricultural and Cannery
Workers and the United ONCE and
Professional Workers prompted the
federation to fight back.
Green said the formation Of coun-
cils-each to include representa- tives
OF all loyal locals-would be the flrst
step toward granting A. F. Of L. char
tiers to both groups.
Office Workers Council.
The Office workers probably will set
up their council during the A. F.. OF
LIS October convention in Denver,
Green said. A date for the agricul-
tural and packing house workers
meeting had not yet been set.

By the Associated Press,

Representative O'Connor, Democrat,
OF New York, predicted opposition
would develop on the House floor
today to a tentative agreement by
two committees over publicity for
the proposed inquiry into tax dodging.
O'Connor Is chairman of the pow
erful Rules Committee, which finally
compromised with the Ways and
Means Committee to authorize a ma
jority OF the investigators to dis
close information about the financial
affairs OF any taxpayer.
He said, however, he expected de-
bate by members who want no pub
licity, those who desire real show
or those who prefer to keep the
inquiry resolution in the form ap-
proved by President Roosevelt and
adopted by the Senate.
The Rules Committee had sought
TO limit the publicity to be given ma
terial uncovered by the six Senators
and six Representatives on the pro-
posed investigation group. The
Ways and Means Committee wanted
no restrictions.
Their agreement also provided:
That restrictions should not apply
to any facts brought out at public
hearings.
That the committee must submit
TO the House Ways and Means and
the Senate Finance Committees
which would handle any bills to
close loopholes in the tax laws, all
pertinent information obtained
secretly.
Ways and Means Committee mem
Ders reported to have insisted that
public hearings by one-man subcom-
mittees be allowed, but the Rules Com
mittee refused to yield.
AS phrased originally by the admin
istration after the Presidents message
on tax dodging, the resolution would
have given the joint committee broad
rights to ignore laws forbidding the
disclosure OF data from income tax
returns.
It also would have permitted the
6enate-House group to turn over its
investigating powers to Treasury en-
ployes. O'Connor contended that
would have meant giving the Treas
ury . free hand to disclose 1nforma-
ton on tax returns.
Under the compromise, the joint
committee might employ any agent it
chose, but he would have no powers
to make public any information or
to hold open hearings.
After the House passes the resolu-
tion, the Senate must agree to any
amendments before hearings can
start.
