Furthermore, general atrikea mean revolution. The Innocent victims of a general strike In n community will not long tolerate such action, consequently public opinion turns against strlkeis when they engage in a general strike. For these reasons, tht American Federation of Labor can not extend approval to genera) strikes. Them are no Immediate prospects of peace between the American Federation of Labor and the C. 1. O.

1 discharged. There is grave danger that an I increase In the membership of organized labor will be offset be--1 cause of the bitter division which occurred In the ranks of labor. 1 The C. I. O. movement set up as 1 a dual, rival organization to the ■ American Federation of Labor, has 1 created division, discord and hate within the ranks of labor. As a result ot the creation of this dual movement, labor has been ripped and torn Into warring factions. No reasonable minded person can fail to appreciate the full significance of this division which lias been created within the ranks of labor through the organization of the C. I. O. All reasonable minded men who are members of the American Federation of Labor and who are its friends hope that eventually unity and solidarity will again be . established. The next convention of the American Federation of Labor, which will be held at Denver Colorado beginning October 4, 1937 will decide what further action will be taken toward organizations which have accepted membership lin the committee for industrial organization. The American Federation of Labor has assisted organizations outside the American Federation of Labor. We have always maintained very friendly relationship with the transportation unions. !we desire the right, however, to determine what organizations we will help and what appeals for assistance and help will be refused. — 0 LEWIS STATEMENT I (CONTINUED FROM PAOE ONE) Again, in collective-bargaining. lit must be remembered that the I check-off is not necessarily an I essential but is merely a matter -of convenience. It can be entered into by mutual agreement between employer and employees’ union. This is also true of the closed | shop. The closed shop is not I fundamentally necessary. For example, all publishers and printing establishments have closed shop agreements with the printing I trades unions. I assume this is I because the contracting parties ( have mutually agreed upon such I procedure. I On the other hand, in the coal 1 mining industry, contracts contain Ino closed shop verbiage. We j don’t quibble over it and yet an , efficient union exists in the industry embracing all the men who work in the mines. These two items — the closed shop and the check-off—are only incidental to the major problems of collective bargaining. UnforI tunately, they are too frequently I used as red herrings by the emI ployers and are given a degree of I consideration above their actual , i importance. In many industries the workers I will continue to demand continua- j I tion of the check-off arrangement for collecting dues merely as a matter of business expediency. I Just as long as the employers operate their own check-off in de- j ducting from the gross wages of 1 workers all items ot company

charges — which in many Indus ' tries is a formidable list — it i seems logical that a similar cons venience should be afforded the ■ union. i It is only one more charge — . one more deduction from the pay I check. Some companies now make • a practice of not only deducting i fees for equipment such as mining tools—and insurance, hut also I have checked off for Liberty loan t! bonds or church contributions. II You ask me whether members :I of the committee for industrial 1 organization who locally support ■ strikes called by the American i Federation .of lotbor or other • groups will be encouraged or pun- • ished or ignored for their sympathetic activities. This is my > answer: i The C. I. O. has never opposed ■ any strike on the part of the ’ American Federation of Labor. It ’ has cooperated everywhere. It is our policy to be friendly to other “ [ labor organizations and to assist , and aid them in obtaining im- • provements in their wage struc- ’ tures and working conditions. i Finally, this is the situation rei, garding the prospects of ‘'peace" 1 between the C. 1.0. and the A.F.L. I Ten of the 30 or more internation- ■ al unions affiliated with the C. 1.0. were suspended from the Ameri- ’ can Federation of Labor. They were on the receiving end of the act of ejection. They are • the injured parties. Any talk of peace must come from the American Federation of i Labor and any such talk of peace must be predicated upon the acceptance of the principles laid down in the minority report of the federation in 1935 demanding the recognition of industrial union in certain industries. That is our position. Any talk without this baste is merely futile —waste of time. Os course, if the American Federation of Labor should desire to join the committee for industrial organization, we would be glad to make known to them the terms upon which they could enter. ROOSEVELT ORDERS (CONTINUED FROM PAOE Court without delay.” Mr. Roosevelt said both the original bill and Robinson’s substitute were constitutional. Because of delay potential in the constitutional process and because the civilized world is endangered by "aggression and armament, economic crisis and major social needs,” Mr. Roosevelt reitereated his demand for action now. The letter invited further compromise if necessary on methods of judiciary reorganization but insisted upon realization of the objectives of what Mr. Roosevelt terms “judicial reform.” o Beer Shipped by Plane Darwin.
