American Federation of Labor Holds Door Open for Re
turn of Typographical UniOn-Vote Against Making
Any Change in Printing Trades Label

ton, who said that Norway, though
held tightly in the Nazi grip, had 600
ships and more than 10000 members
of Haugen's union fighting in "the
Battle of the Atlantic" on the side of
Great Britain.
Throughout the world, Haugen de-
clared, more than 1000 Norwegian
vessels and $4,000 members of his
union are sailing the seas, with "every
single sailor in that fleet sworn to
carry on until the last of the pirates
are swept from the seas"
Plea for Saving Made
although the Nazis," he told the
convention, "have made a determined
effort to prevent the Federation of
Labor in Norway from informing the
workers of Norway as to the status
of free labor throughout the world,
our representatives have succeeded
with the help of leaders like President
Green in establishing and maintaining
contact with their homeland"
Herbert E. CASTOR, Assistant Sec
retary of the Treasury, strongly urged
saving by the worker to help prevent
imitation and provide a reserve in case
of depression following the end of
the defense program.
Castor warned that unless the
worker made a determined effort to
save some of his increased earnings
Systematically for investment in de-
fense bonds the costs of living would
probably continue rising and higher
prices would wipe out benefits of in
creased pay.

Seattle, Wash. (ILNS) In a new
move to bring about reaffiliation of
the international Typographical Union,
the sixty-first annual convention of
the American Federation of Labor, by
unanimous vote, authorized a sub
committee of the Executive Council to
continue efforts to find a satisfactory
basis for return of the union to the
federation.
The convention expressed "deep re-
gret" over the refusal of the /. T. u
membership last spring to vote to re-
join the federation "in which for so
many years it played so vital role"
A committee report approved by
the delegates described the l. T. u. as
zone of the unions which, in close CO.
operation with the other printing
trades unions, will be called upon to
play an ever increasing role in our
national defense program"
"A way must be found" the report
added, through which united typo
graphical union may function within
the Allied Printing Trades as func-
tional part of the A. F. of l.. and as
part of the well-coordinated allied
printing trades industry"
No Change in Label
The printers union was suspended
by the 1889 convention of the A. F..
of l.. for its failure to pay its special
assessment for nearly two years. The
special assessment was revoked last
year and negotiations between the A.
F. of L. and |. T. u resulted in an
agreement, which, however, was de-
feated in an |. T. u. referendum vote.
The outcome was caused "by a
regrettable disagreement within the
leadership of the |. T. IT," the COM
mittee report said. Pending negotia-
tions with the |. T. U. the convention
voted against making any change in
the printing trades label
Camp Education Plan Asked
The American Federation of Teach
ers was praised by the convention for
it's fight on Communist influences,
which resulted in the revocation of
charters of two local unions in New
York and one in Philadelphia. All
three, it is charged, were under Com
munist leadership and domination. DR..
George S. Counts, president of the
teachers organization, said it would
be kept committed to "the great ideals
of democracy"
The convention adopted declara-
tion asking Secretary of War Slim
son to see that "an adequate system
of education and recreation" be intro
duced in army camps, with such a
system including "a discussion of the
place of labor in the institutional life
of our country"
Keen interest was shown in an ad-
dress by Ingvald Haugen, president
of the Norwegian Seamen's Associa-

Bundles" Drive Opens

Oxford, Ohio-As it starts its sec

Bundles for Britain is asking for
funds and donations of clothing and
medical supplies. A letter signed by
Mrs. Virginia Howard, president, and
Dr. Burton French, chairman of the
fund campaign, stresses the increas-
ing needs of the British people. Last
year the Oxford chapter sent 1900
knitted garments and 1000 pounds of
clothing to England.

or members, which tends to bring dis
honor on the trade union movement" J"
The convention pointed out that a
number of international unions had
changed their constitutions in line
with recommendations made by the
1910 convention that affiliated unions
provide for adequate disciplinary ac-
tion against convicted officers and
members.
1t was declared there would be found
few dishonest individuals in any
organization of 100000 or more,
"but," it was added, "those officers or
members of trade unions who have Of
Tended against the law are, by COM
parison, considerably less than those
found in other organizations or insti-
tutions."
Anti-labor columnists and newspa-
pers which publish their articles were
criticized sharply and it was declared
they did not promote public welfare
by condemning all organized labor for
the misdeeds of a few officers and
members"
Trade Commission Criticized
Vigorous protest was registered by
the convention against what was de-
nounced as "the trend toward the mis-
use by the Federal Trade Commission
of the federal antitrust statutes
against the lawful pursuits of the
trade union movement to protect and
promote fair labor standards in in
dustry."
The protest, presented by delegates
of the United Hatters, Cap and Mil
linery Workers. International Union
and the International Ladies' Garment
Workers Union was in reply to COM
plant made by the commission against
the national consumers protection
label adopted by stabilization boards
within the women's garment industry.
The convention was warned that the
coat and suit trade would be thrown
into '.chaos" if the commission con-
tinued it's attack.
Convention criticism of the Federal
Trade Commission followed close on
blistering denunciation of Thurman
Arnold, head of the antitrust division
of the Department of Justice. The con-
vention asked Attorney-General Biddle
to investigate certain charges against
Arnold. and to remove him from Office
if the charges are true. The Executive
Council was directed to bring the
charges to the attention of President
Roosevelt.
Anti-Labor Activities Charged
A report of the resolution committee
declared that Arnold has prosecuted
trade unionists under the antitrust
laws without legal warrant, that he
has lobbied and written in support of
laws to curb legitimate labor activ
tiles and has treated labor defendants
in antitrust cases like criminals, re-
quiring that they be fngerprinted and
put up bail, while employers under
going similar charges have not been
forced to undergo such humiliations.
Arnold was assailed as "the most
articulate and effective spokesman
now representing the reactionary,
anti-labor forces in this country"

Seattle, Wash. (ILNS). = Repre-
sentation of labor on agencies admin
istering defense programs and poll
cies was demanded by the American
Federation of Labor's annual conven-
tion as it neared the end of its meeting.
A convention declaration warned
the nation "in this critical hour" that
"labor's fullest contribution cannot be
given until the trained men in the
trade union movement, those in whom
our members and employers have con-
fidence, are appointed to responsible
positions in connection with national
defense as a result of nomination and
recommendation by the American Fed
Grafton of Labor"
Flore Made Council Member
The convention reelected President
William Green, Secretary treasurer
George Meany and all members of the
Executive Council, with the exception
of George E. Browne, president of
the international Alliance of Theat-
rical Stage Employees and Moving Pic
ture Machine Operators, who was un-
der trial in New York on extortion
charges during the convention session
Browne was dropped from the coun-
Gil by vote of 47,944 to AL, being
can1oood &c a1ayop+b Woo orac;dopt hv
Edward Flore, president of the Hotel
and Restaurant Employees and Bar
tenders International Alliance. No
other changes were made in the coun-
Gil. A vacancy was caused by the
death in July of Thomas A. Rickert,
second vice-president, and the conven-
tion at a previous session had reduced
the number of vice. presidents from Is
to 13, in the interest of greater eff
cheney.
Delegates struck hard at racketeer-
ing by directing that all central labor
bodies and other central bodies deny
seats to convicted racketeers and Grim
inals. Similar action was taken some
years ago in regard to Communists,
the constitution being amended to bar
them from seats in central bodies.
Unions Action Asked
Another blow was directed at rack
eteers by a convention declaration
calling up all A. F. of L. affiliates "to
take prompt action whenever rack
eteering, wrong-doing or other crime
is engaged in by any of their officers
