AFL Terms Held
(Continued From Pace One)

therefore, why the current peace
makers should concentrate on it if
they are in earnest in seeking solu
tion to their problem.
'"The original formula put forth by
A. F. of l.. spokesmen contemplated
the immediate return to the Federation
of the ten unions which seeded to or
ganize the Committee for Industrial
Organization and the subsequent inclu-
sion Of the new C. l. o. unions when
each had come to terms with its A. F..
of l.. competitor. This was rejected
by the c. |. O. on the ground that it
would mean betrayal of the new
unions. The A. F. of l.. then pro-
posed that the ten unions stand aside
while representative committees set
tied the jurisdictional disputes involv-
ing the new unions, and that, after q
satisfactory agreement had been reach
ed in every case, all should come in
together. The c. |. 0. negotiators ac-
cepted the suggestion thus modified
as modus vivendi, but Mr.. Lewis
rudely and abruptly rejected it. He
insisted that the A. F. of l.. admit
forthwith all C. |. o. unions, that mat
ters in conflict be taken up later but
with the distinct understanding that
none Of these unions could be suspend
ed should it fail Of an agreement with
it's rival. With transparent logic, the
A. F. of L. representatives pointed out
that such program would simply per-
petuate dual unionism within the Fed
Grafton, settling nothing, and the ne
gotiations were discontinued.
at seems highly significant that
Lewis should be willing now even to
discuss plan which he once spurned
and which unquestionably he sought
to sidetrack with his grandiose scheme
for one all-inclusive federation.

Committee Kills
Bill to Abolish fhe
Sfate Housing Act
Action Is Taken To Postpone
Any Further Hearings
On Measure

Columbus, O. (OLNS).-By unani-
Federal Relations last week killed
House Bill No. AGA, proposing repeal
Of the state housing act which enables
municipalities to participate in Fed
eral cooperative low-cost housing and
| slum clearance projects.
Action postponing further hearings
on the measure Indefinitely was taken
by the Committee at the conclusion OF
arguments against the bill by repre-
sentatives Of organized labor and
metropolitan housing authorities.
Only proponents Of the measure
were rental real estate owners Of Co
lumbus and the Franklin County Prop
erty Owners Protective Association.
Speaking in opposition to the bill
Professor Charles Chubb, chairman OF
the Columbus Metropolitan Housing
Authority, told the committee that the
United States Housing Authority had
earmarked $G4 4,CC0,OCO for low cost
housing projects in Ohio, and the to-
tai would be increased by $7CCC,O0O
in the next two years.
He pointed out that $34 ,C0O,OOO of
that amount would go to building me-
chanics in wages, and Approximately
the same amount to workers in the
material fabrcating industries.
Industrial Relations Director George
A. Strain urged the committee to Kill
the measure, as the state could not af-
ford to lose that buying power which
would stimulate private industry in al!
its branches.
John w. Jockel, president of the
Ohio State Building and Construction
Trades Council, told the committee
that trade unions had spent their own
money in keeping members off relief
rolls, and had financed the fight for
the federal housing law to create jobs
in industry.
John r.. Breidenbach, vice president
Of the Ohio State Federation Of La
Dor, lashed out at 'rent gougers" who
were sponsoring the bill, and declared
that public housing projects would re-
suit in better housing for all low in
come groups.
Arnold Bill, also vice president of
the Ohio State Federation Of Labor
told the committee that the repeal of
the state housing act would be a back
ward step and seriously delay the re-
turn Of prosperity.
The committee room was packed
with members of trade unions from
every section of the state.

FROM RAGS TO BREECHES

Washington, D. C.-With the lower
ing of import taxes on rags by the
reciprocal trade treaty with Great
Britain, imports of rags to the United
States jumped from 99,l08 pounds in
January, 1888 to 1,l19,025 pounds in
January, 1889. Labor and consumer
organizations declare these rags-torn
apart into reclaimed fibers (shoddy)-
are going into garments sold at
'wool," that substitutes for virgin
wool now constitute more than fifty
per cent of the fibers used by woolen
manufacturers, and that the use of
shoddy is increasing rapidly. Conse-
quently, say representatives of these
organizations, there is need for i'm
mediate enactment by Congress of the
Schwartz Martin wool labelling bill re-
quiring the identification of the virgin
wool content for the protection of the
consumer

TOO MANY DOORS

Life is like a crazy house
Too many doors to know
Which one really opens
And where each hall will go.
Some times you take the wrong one
Which really leads nowhere
1t brings you back to where you started
And makes you pull your hair.
You run around in circles
Can't just now decide,
Dash right through and open door
But tumble down a slide.
Life is like crazy house
And we are those within
It's walls, with all it's doors
We try and try again.
