Lewis Charges Employers Green Rejects Latest Truce

Pay 80 Million for Espionage.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1 (U. P.).—The United Mine Workers of America today demanded additional appropriations to continue the La Follette civil liberties inquiry after hearing John L. Lewis condemn as a “damnable imposition” the expenditure of “$80,000,000 by employers” for industrial espionage. Mr. Lewis, chairman of the C. I. O. and president of the miners’ union said America “does not need this foreign system of espionage.” “Americans are free men and they resent being spied upon. one American, I confess to a feeling of outrage when I read of the tremendous expenditures of money on the part of industry for the sole purpose of keeping the workers in subjections and to keep them from exercising normal rights. “I believe that this $80,000,000 would be better spent if it went into the workers’ pay envelopes for services rendered.” Antilynching Bill Indorsed The convention unanimously approved resolutions: Opposing an investigation of the National Labor Relations Board or amendment of the act which created it This resolution also protested recent, NLRB interpretations “which will permit. craft organiaztions to creep into the mass production and basic industries.” Indorsing the Antilynching Bill. Asking imposition of a Federal tax on fuel oil and natural gas “as unfair competitors of coal.” Mr. Lewis said that the work of the La Follette Committee was “fraught with tremendous importance not only to labor

the maintenance of the constitu-|

tional rights of a free people. “It is high time that the defenders of liberty in Congress take action to protect Americans against these systems and their practices,” he said.

Oppose Citizens Committee

The convention adopted a resolution condemning formation of “citizens' committees” during strikes, asserting they are “created and promoted by powerful corporate interests in their greedy determination to deny labor its collective bargaining rights.” Senator Neely (D. W. Va.) told the convention that “the best way to insure the continuance of democracy in America” is to organize all industrial workers into labor unions. Earlier, the convention moved to strengthen Labor's Nonpartisan League and support a Federal legislative porgram calling for a 30-hour week law, minimum wage acts and a $5,000,000,000 housing program.

Proposals as Being Impractical.

MIAMI, Fla., Feb. 1 (U. P.). —The executive council of the American Federation of Labor ‘expected today to consider punitive action against the Committee for Industrial Or-

ganization. Mr. Green rejected as “impractical” latest truce proposals. He announced that he had discussed the matter with James F. Dewey, Federal conciliator, but that they approached no nearer a solution of the problem despite advice that the Government and Secretary of Labor Perkins are increasingly concerned about the situation. { Informed sources said that the council might oust only Lewis’ own United Mine Workers and Sidney Hillman's Amalgamated Clothing | workers. The purpose of this would | be to further split the C. 1.

Accordingly, leaders are expected to concentrate on the economic, rather than the political ties that are to exist henceforth between the United States and the Philippines, meantime conducting an educational campaign in the Islands and in this country in behalf of a saner, fairer and more workable plan for the period beyond 1946.
