representative labor organization with
one vote, and one delegate from en-
ployers with one vote, shall represent
each nation affiliated with the Inter-
national Labor Organization at con-
ferences held by said international
Labor Organization. To divide the one
vote between two labor organizations,
such as the American Federation of
Labor and the Congress of Industrial
Organizations, might mean conflict
and disagreement. The one group
might cast one-half vote in favor of
and the other group one-half vote in
opposition to some vital proposal SUBJ
mitted for determination. Such an out
come would cause disunity and dis
cord. The American Federation of La
Dor has participated in each and every
conference of the International Labor
Organization which has been held
since it's formation in 1919. At no time
during all these years has it been
called upon to share labor representa-
tion in an International Labor Organi-
zation conference.
"The American Federation of La
Dor is still the most representative
labor organization in the United
States. The American Federation of
Labor, as one Of the creators of the
international Labor Organization, has
been inspired by consciousness OF
responsibility for it's development and
! success. The idea of labor being ac-
corded the right to be represented al
peace negotiations following the con-
clusion of World War No. l originated
in the mind of Samuel Gompers who
served so long and efficiently as presi.
dent of the American Federation OF
Labor. He prepared and introduced al
the convention of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor held in November
1914, a resolution proposing a repre-
sentative International Labor Confer
ence at the same time and at the same
place where the peace conference
would be held. This resolution, circu
lated among the national labor cen
tiers, was the origin, the thought ant
purpose that resulted in the formation
of the international Labor Commits
sion The late Samuel Gompers, repre-
senting labor in the United States
was designated as chairman of th
Commission which prepared that draf
plan later embodied in Section 16 O
the Versailles Treaty.

AL Refuses To Share Representation
AT Coming lilo Conference WithClO
Federation Will Not Participate Under Such Pan Green
Tells Roosevelt; Wants Full Participation of All
Independents Unions; Wants No Partially

Washington, D. C.-President Will
liam Green notified President Roose-
velt that the American Federation of
Labor will not agree to share repre-
sentation at the Forthcoming LILO con-
ference at Philadelphia with the CIO.
Mr.. Green informed the President
that poll of the members of the AFL
Executive Council showed they stood
unanimously against any change in
the traditional policy of our Govern
n;c:.t 10 appoint as the American
workers delegate to the LILO confer
ence representative nominated by
the AFL.
For the past seven years Robert J..
Watt, international representative of
the AFL, has served as the American
workers delegate and is member Of
the LILO governing body.
The issue of representation at the
LILO meeting came into the open when
Mr.. Green made public letter he sent
to the White House. In this letter Mr..
Green disclosed that the President and
Secretary of Labor Perkins had re-
quested the AFL to share representa-
tion with the CIO on the basis of one
half vote for the AFL delegate and
one-half vote for CIO delegate.
Demanding a showdown on this in
sue, Mr.. Green served notice on the
President that the AFL will refuse to
participate in the LILO conference if a
change in the method of representa-
tion "is forced or insisted upon" The
letter said
''In reporting to you upon the an
swer made by each member of the
Executive Council, be assured | know
it is the inclination and desire of each
and all of them to respond favorably
to any request you make. Because OF
this fact, I am confident that all OF
them were moved by feeling of deer
regret when they as administrators
of the American Federation of Labor
unanimously advised me they coule
not agree that representatives of the
American Federation of Labor partic.
ipate at the meeting of the Interna.

Additional Supplies Means Transfer of Supplies To Other
Points of Advantage In the South Pacific Warns
That There Is A Long Hard Fight Ahead

Washington, D. c.. 0LNS) Zone
reason we are running we'll ahead of
our Pacific timetable is that produc-
tion of fighting ships for the Navy,
and all the accessories that go with
them, is far ahead of schedule" This
tribute to labor's part in the war effort
comes from Lieut. Gen. Alexander A.
Vandegrift, USMC, Commandant of
Americas fighting Marines.
Continuing his comments on labor's
production record, General Vandegrift
said: Generally speaking we have
great praise and few complaints on
those Scores" but added that much
work remains to be done in the Pa
cific war theater.
Moves Wait on Materials
"The plans for future amphibious
movements in the Pacific are pre-
dicated on many factors" the Marine
Commandant said particular ac-
tions, already mapped, must await the
arrival Of greater quantities of ma
terials Of war. We are gated now by
the limitation of ways and means
available to do things. If we had
more, we could today strike at more
points with greater force.
'Those additional means will be
available with the transfer of power
from the European theater, and with
the opportunity of moving all, rather
than only small part, of our new
weapons directly from the home pro-
duction lines into the Pacific. The rate,
and quality, Of production here at
home will be important factors"
Defends "Island Hopping"
Vandergrift defended what has been
termed an "island hopping" policy in
the Pacific. He said the Allies must
converge upon Japan from all direc-
tions, and that one of those directions
lies along the chain Of major islands
leading directly to Japan's from t
door, He cited the fact that the Rus
slams had to battle from village to
village, across hundreds Of miles, to
reach the old Polish borders and that
mo one has ever disparaged the Rus
slams for 'village-hopping'."
General Vandegrift said the Japs
know which islands are essential to
us, for those same islands are essen
tial to their defense. He said the Japs
have fortified these islands heavily
and their garrisons can be expected to
fight to the last man, as they did at
Tarawa.
Warns of Hard Fight
Gas many Of the strategic air and
naval bases on those islands as we
absolutely need, we will take," the
General continued, land we shall
strive to do so with the least possible
expenditure of men, blood and time
He warned, however, that the road
will be hard and that Americans must
be prepared for the shock of paying
heavily at times for what we get
