WASHINGTON, Oct. 21 (U. P.

internal differences were reported

today to be largely responsible for convocation of the joint peace con-

of leaders in the miscellaneous and railroad trades are making a secret effort to bring about peace with the C. I. O. rebels, it was learned. This | move has been accelerated by a feeling among both groups that labor’ s | “civil war” is detrimental to many | workers, and that the public and | Government are disturbed over its | ramifications. Two of the three A. F. of L. leaders who meet a C. I. O. peace committee of 10 Monday were believed to represent the unity group. They | are George Harrison and Matthew | Woll. The third, G. M. Bugniazet, | was believed to be adamant in op- | position.

Pessimistic Over Success

Although there still is considerable | pessimism about the success of the | conference. both sides agree it is a “step forward” since both will be represented at the same council ta- | for the first time in two years, Mr Lew is hopes that the confer- | ence will at least place the disputed issues clearly before the public. For | that reason he plans to request that the press be admitted to the meeting. From an impartial source close to | both sides of the A. F. of L.-C. I.
