JOHN L. LEWIS FORGING AHEAD IN LABOR RANKS Miners’ Chief to Be Among , Progressive Leaders at A. F. of L. Parley. i BY MAX STERN WASHINGTON. Sept B.—President William Green just has sent forth a call to the American Federation of Labor's fifty-third and mos’ significant annual convention. It will be held here for a fortnight, beginning Oct. 2, and will be preceded by an important meeting of the executive councli. Dedication of a monument to the late Samuel Gompers will be the occasion for appraising the American labor movement's halfcentury of progress. The convention's more vital functions will be to seek to adjust unionism to its new role as ‘partner of government.'’ to reframe its internal organization to care for the 1 000.000 new recruits from among the big mass industry unions, to adopt a policy toward the employers tn line with the recovery act administration and ideals. The coming convention will open with a more militant tone than usual. This is not only because of the impetus the new deal has given to union organization, but because of th* emergence of a number of leaders who ability and power are likely to sweep away the conservative elements and. possibly, lead to a reframing of the entire program and policy of the American labor movement. Lewis Among Them Among those leaders are John L. Lewis, head of the United Mine Workers, whose efforts have added 300.000 new members to the coal miners’ organization, and whose aggressive voice has been raised in NRA code hearings above that of other labor spokesmen; Sidney Hillman of the progressive Amalga--mated Clothing Workers, who just have patched up a twenty-two-year-old sued with the United Garment Workers, and whose 100.000 strong union is likely to be admitted to the federation; Joe Franklin of the Boilermakers, now an NRA advisory board member; George L. Berry of the printing pressmen and American Legion; Ed McGrady, new NRA assistant administrator and also as- ; sistant labor secretary. Tlie new rise and poplarity of Lewis is a threat to the incum-; bency of President Green and his ; more conservative following, but an organized fight against Green probably will not be attempted this year. Miner Lewis, in fact, avows that he's ’ for Bill Green and always has been.” He says he will not seek to head the federation in opposition to President Green. Seeks Larger Council Certain, however, is another effort, begun last year by Lewis, to enlarge the executive council from its present membership of ten to permit a more democratic representation and an infusion of more i progressive ideas. Among the issues to be discussed are: A report by President Green on the NRA and its codes, a discussion that will go into labors new relations with industry and with the | employers; Plans for an increased 1934 membership drive, directed particularly i toward the steel, auto, rubber and other mass-production industries; Internal organization. This will consider the problem of industrial vs. craft unionism and the general adaptation of the workers to mod- , ern machine industry: A mass attack on the forty-hour

FIND NEW CLEW | IN BANK HOLDUP Gang Which Escaped With $24,000 Linked With Columbus Robbers. Possibility that four members of j a bandit gang of eight which obtained $24,000 in a robbery Wednesday of the State Bank of Massachusetts Avenue may have been those who committed a $2,000 cigar store holdup in Columbus. 0., is being considered bv authorities today. The Columbus robbery was committed a few hours before the bank holdup, by four men armed with machine guns. Witnesses of the robbery here failed late Thursday to identify five men held as suspects at Marshall, 111., but the men still are in custody, while a study is being made of their fingerprints. While authorities at Marshall are doubtful that the men can be connected with the robbery/they assert
j the prisoners tell conflicting stories I and it is the intention to hold them ! until their activities are cleared fully. The prisoners are Everett Brenton. 19; James Carlis. 26. and Oscar Hams. 25. all of Chicago, and Leo Abram. 35, and Joseph Malke, 29. both of Cincinnati. They were arrested at Marshall about four hours after the robbery, j when they attracted attention by driving at high speed across a Wa- : bash river bridge at Hutsonville. 111. The men were riding in an automobile bearing an Ohio license. SMOKES FIRST FAG ON EIGHTIETH BIRTHDAY Nebraskan Also Marks Occasion With Plane Ride. By United Press CHICAGO. Sept.
