Aliem. Mr.. Pearl. IL We wish

Mr.. Pearl writing again says:

The article would form a fine
scenario for movie entitled

from Willie Green. Willie told

Lewis Reports on Unity

The section OF President
John l.. Lewis annual report
to the Go Convention dealing
with labor unity between the
Go and Al'l asserts that no
valid objection has been put
forth by the Al'l against pro-
posals that the AI'L take in
and charter the entire Clio
membership and iron out any
disputes in united convention.
Instead. reads the report. il
lusivc and hypocriiicaI pro-
posals have been made by the
AFL. all OF which deny the
basic principle OF industrial or
ganization in the mass produc-
ton and basic industries. They
propose to accept only some OF
the CLIO unions after they have
been carved up to the satislac-
ton of the AI'l and they would
deny admission to certain ClO
unions " hose membership
would be admitted only after
they had joined other AFL
unions.
