Lewis Scheme Is
Spurned by Green
AFL President Scorns Play
~. of CIO Dictator

Houston, Texas William Green,
president of the American Federation
of Labor, promptly and firmly re-
fused the suggestion of John L. Lewis,
chairman of the Committee for Indus
trial Organization, that they SIM
ultaneously resign.
Replying to Mr.. Lewis's scheme, the
A. F. of l.. president said it was one
of the C. I. O. dictators characteris-
tic "grandstand plays" and an attempt
"to mislead the public with an empty
gesture"
Green's Statement
Mr.. Green issued the following
statement with regard to Lewis's
bluff:
"The presidency Of the American
Federation of Labor is an elective Of
flee. The Craftsmanship of the C. L.
O. is an entirely different proposition.
The officers of the C. l. O. are not
elected by the workers they presume
to represent. They are self-consti-
tuted, self-appointed, self-perpetuat-
ing ..'
81 conceive it to be my duty as
president Of the American Federation
of Labor to be the spokesman for the
majority Of the 100000 workers who
rule the Federation. l have never
sought and 1 do not now seek to i'm
pose my personal views on the mem
bers of the Federation, nor to control
or dominate it's policies. In every
statement and in every act as presi-
dent of the American Federation of
Labor l have sought earnestly and
honestly to present the majority view
point of the American Federation of
Labor. .,...-fe{.,. e.... -.s
"On the other hand, the chairman,
of the C. l. o., as every one knows, is
the dictator of the G. |. 0. He has
not once even consulted the member
ship of the C. l. O. during his regime.
"Now he. offers to resign if l will.
"Well, the World Series is over, but
the chairman Of the G. l. 0. is still
making grandstand plays. His offer
is an attempted fraud and deception
Of the public. To any one familiar
with the labor situation it is obvious
that even if he resigned as chairman
of the C. l.. O. he would still remain
it's dictator behind the scenes, because
he would remain as president and die
tator of the United Mine Workers of
America, the union which is the finan-
cial angel of the C. /. O. and whose
funds are being wantonly wasted in
vain effort to keep the c.. |. o. alive.
"Here is man who has ruthlessly
vetoed every fair proposal to restore
peace in organized labor, who has even
refused to sit down again in confer
ence without prior commitments to
seek the kind of labor peace which
every one in this nation wants, now
trying to mislead the public with an
empty gesture.
"The public can no longer be fooled
by the grandiose bluffs of the chair
man of the G.. |. O.
"The question of my service with
the American Federation Of Labor
will be placed squarely and fairly be-
fore this convention for vote. On
this issue, as on every other presented
during my record Of service, | will be
guided by the democratic decision of
the 100000 workers who make up
the American Federation of Labor"

Chance For L Lobor

issue, there is no solution, until the
adherents of that man deprive him
of his authority or he voluntarily
steps aside. He seems not likely to
step aside, but there are signs that
the other possibility may materalize.
People do grow tired of carrying the
burden of self-aggandizement they
do grow tired Of paying the price of
dictatorship" The report next referred
to the letter President Roosevelt sent
to this Houston convention asking
that the door to further peace-seeking
efforts be left open. Before our con-
vention even had time to consider the
Presidents appeal" the report went
on, "the door was closed from the side
of the dual movement by the auto
crat who has constituted himself die
tator of the C. l. O.
at is said that President Roose-
welt and the C. l. o. autocrat are close
to each other in political endeavor,"
the report continued, "and it is clear
that the President has more than once
lent his support to Mr.. Lewis, but the
moment the President pleads for a
course that would threaten the auto
cracy of the C. l. o. and end dualism,
Caesar steps forth to roar disdainful
defiance"
| Appraising what had happened to
C. l. O. unions in the last year under
their illuminating Caesar" the report
spoke of the United Mine Workers, as
the Sacrifice brigade of the C. |. O.
forces," from where several million
dollars had been taken to bolster Mr..
Lewis's ambitious. These funds, the
charge continued, have been used in
amazing political adventures" by an
ambitious spendthrift," yet "almost
uniformly the G. l. o. has been re-
jected by the electors at the polls" "
so that today wise candidates hope
to avoid C. I. O. Endorsement"
AS for the Amalgamated Clothing
Workers, headed by Sidney Hillman,
referred to in the report as the
Machiavelli of the Lewis forces, the
committee said the campaign of its
Textile Workers Organization Com
mittee in the South had turned out
to be merely "bluff and bluster" and
that internal discomfort had been the
result. Mr.. Lewis's automobile union
was pictured as full of dissention, and
a similar story was told of his United
Rubber Workers.
"There is not a union in the out
law movement that has not suffered
in loss of prestige and place." the
report remarked. "And as whole
the movement has become so tainted
and tarnished and saturated with the
virus of Communism that it's kiss is
called the kiss Of death, it's approval
warrant of DEATH"
The one shining exception to "this
sorrowful category" was Mr.. Du-
binsky's garment workers union. 1t
had refused to submit to dictation, had
fulfilled it's promise to- help organize
the unorganized, and now, the COM
mittee felt, at will decline to join the
new movement to form dual fedora
tion of labor"
ave recommend that this conven-
tion authorize the executive council
to continue to carry on the battle and
at the same time stand ready to re-
spond to any genuine appeal for peace
or any honorable and sincere oppor-
tunity to reunite the labor movement y
