yesterday in Labor Day broadcast

''Dissension and division inevitably
lead to loss of influence and prestige

The effect of the Secretary's appeal
could not be measured Immediately
but in Labor Day statements and ad-
dresses prior to her talk neither the

dustrial Organization showed any sign
Of giving ground.
Joseph Padway, general counsel of
the A. F. of L.. declared in an address
at Omaha, Nebr. that there could
be no peace between the two camps
"ss long as the present c. I. o. lead
ers demand that they shall continue
to lead their unions"
The rank and file are welcome
into the A. F. of L.. but the leadership
must change" he said.
Mr.. Lewis was in Mexico City to
attend the Latin-American Labor Con-
gress. but in statement issued
through his Office here he said the rival
faction, processing desire for unity"
had engaged in a civil war to destroy
the labor movement which the C. I. O.
has carried to such extraordinary sue
cess"
