interest” the utterances of Herbert Hoover, Governor Smith and their running-mates, on labor matters. The Federation’s executive council at its recent meeting at Atlantic City decided not to indorse either candidate for the present, but reserved “a final decision regarding our future policy,” dependent upon what the candidates say. Should an indorsement of one or the other be decided upon, it probably would be at the council’s October meeting here. Meanwhile Federation headquarters are busy getting out the records of national candidates on labor mat-

ters. These records are expected to have almost as much effect as an indorsement, as actions are to be listed flatly as “favorable” or “unfavorable.” They will be sent to affiliated unions all over the country. The legislative records of Senators and Representatives also are to be sent into their local States and districts.

SENATE FIGHT AGAINST WEST MAY BE AVOIDED Coolidge Need Not Ask Approval of Appointment Under Law. Bn Times Special WASHINGTON, Aug. 24.—President Coolidge may disappoint Senators who are preparing to fight confirmation of Roy O. West secretar yof the interior, by failing to submit his name to the Senate when it convenes next December. West was given a recess appoint-

ment as successor to Hubert Work who resigned to direct Hoover’s campaign. The appointment aroused criticism because of West’s close business association with Samuel Insull, millionaire public utilities dictator. Under the law a recess appointee may continue in office until the adjournment of the next session of Congress even though he is not confirmed by the Senate. This statute does not require the submission of the appointee’s name to the Senate during the close of an administration.
