Delegates Adopt Peace
Gesture At Farley

LA SALE, Ill, Sept. % G.N.S0.
The Illinois Federation of Labor
today held out the olive branch to
John L. Lewis and his Committee
For Industrial Organization.
The move to heal the breach
between the two groups and re-
store a united labor front was
made at the State convention in
the form of a resolution adopted
with virtual unanimity.
Only two delegates from the
Progressive Miners Union opposed
the report Of the executive board
laid before the convention by Vic
tor A. Chandler, secretary-treasurer.
After deploring the break in the
ranks of labor, the resolution
stated:
1T is hoped this calm, clear,
dispassionate statement will
serve to create a better feeling
within the ranks of the contend
ing forces and that it will speed
the day when American labor
will again present a united
front"
Thomas Flaherty, delegate Of
the Progressive Miners which
withdrew from Lewis United Mine
workers in 1882, was promptly
called to order when he attacked
the C. I. o. chieftain.

for Industrial Organization, has
silently or vociferously objected to
the "crucifixion" of Justice Hugo
L. Black during a time in which
his anSwer-if any is necessary

his absence from the country.
While many are divided on the
Kan issue, it is the generally &C

Black by Edward Heating, editor
Of Labor" who told the Brother,
hood of Boilermakers that he
himself is an Irish Catholic, no

Among the questions being
asked by labor are those involving
the almost immediate death of the
