LABOR DRAFTS PLANK SEEKING 30-HOURWEEK Protection of Bargaining Right Listed Among Objectives. By Peett RAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 2. Against the militant background laid down by its leadership, organized labor today mapped it* major oto J Jectivea—the thirty-hour working week and the protection of it* right of collective bargaining—in the second day of the American Federation of Labor convention. Most of the aork was being done in committee ax the leaders probed the sentiment of the 433 delegates regarding the fighting program offered by President William F. Oreen in the opening session. The convention itself set an example it hopes industry will follow by putting its sessions on the basis of a six-hour day and a fiveday week. Spotlight of today's se.ssion centered on the important resolutions commute, headed by Matthew Woll. vice-president, and including the powerful miners’ leader. John L. Lewis.

From his committee will flow the resolutions which will be labor's pledges and labor's chart for the coming year. With the deadline on submission of resolutions set for midnight tonight the committee was flooded with proposals, some from the conservative elements, many from the "left wing” group which is organizing with tiie federation. While the routine work of reports and speeches proceeded in the flagdraped auditorium the leadership sought to patch the one main dispute within the organization—the schism in the building trades department. "The problem Is not insurmountable,” said Frank Morrison, federation secretary. Another infernal problem fronting the leadership was the activity of the "rank and file” group. In a well-attended meeting last night the so-called "left wing” formulated a program, particularly condemning President Green's attitude toward the San Francisco general strike and condemning also the use of injunctions, the use of troops in labor disturbances, war. Fascism and labor racketeering. POISON SENT To m KILLS INNOCENT VICTIM Two Others in Critical Condition After Fating Sandwiches. By t niletl Prett CHICAGO.
