CLAIM IS MADE TO LABOR VOTE _____ (Continued Prom Page One, 1 leaderk claimed today. The American Federation of Labor will sanction if not openly endorse the LuPollctte candidacy, which executive counsel meets in Atlantic City the first of August according to the progressive’s opinion, i Willie Samuel Ooni|)ers head of the American Federation of Labor, is opposed to endorsement of independent political movements the LaFoilette . cnlets have been informed that the ■ labor body will oppose the candidacy of both Coolldge and Davis and there--1 fore will at least practically endorse the LaFoilette camp ign. This is the opinion of William H. Johnson, cha'rman of the national * progressive committee as expressed to the United Press today. “The Heart of labor is LaFoilette" ■ Johnson said. “Os course no leaders 1 wish to be put 'nfo the position of attempting to control the votes of, labor. But the entire political career of LaFoilette has been u fight for the right of laborers both in The factories and on the farm. The men know this and ! am sure that the effect of the labor vote will lie felt stronger next November than at any previous time. There are 3,000,000 members of that body.” A BUZZ AROUND HEADQUARTERS (Continued From Page One) at the summer home of Charles Dam Gibson, one of the closest friends of Colonel House.

There appears little doubt that these men will have a telling effort upon Mr. Davis’ enunciation of his governmental principles. The fact lhat most of them, including Davis himself, have long sponsored American entrance into the league of nations already has aroused wide interest In how the candidate will treat this subject in his forthcoming acceptance speech.
