6.1.0, TO SEEK AF. L. UNIONS

‘Peace by Absorption’ Will Be Goal, High Official Indicates.

(Editorial, Page 10)

WASHINGTON, Feb. 8 (U. P).— The Committee for Industrial Organization answered the American Federation of Labor's “declaration of war” today with plans to lead sympathetic unions out of the Federation and to bring “peace by absorption” to the labor movement.

A high C. I. O. official said the United Mine Workers of America— John L., Lewis’ own union—had voted a $1,200,000 special assessment to finance an organization drive.

C. I. O. officials were hesitant in discussing the expulsion of the United Mine Workers and two other C. I. O. unions by the Federation's executive council. Publicly they said only that “the C. I. O. will go marching on,” but privately they indicated that greater pressure would be brought on friendly unions to quit the Federation. Federation unions reported to be sympathetic toward the C. I. O. include the American Federation of Teachers, headed by Jerome Davis, ousted Yale professor, and the Brewery Workers Union.

Concerted Drive

MIAMI, Fla. Feb. 8 (U. P.) —All hope for a reconciliation in the labor movement was abandoned today as the American Federation of Labor began a concerted drive against the Committee for Industrial Organization in the coal, metal mining,, and glass industries. Strategy for a membership campaign in these three fields, in which the Federation's executive council has revoked the charters of C. I. O. unions, was discussed by council members. The council met today in an anticlimatic final session to discuss unemployment, ways of improving opportunities for work, and suggestions for the betterment of business. It was expected that the A. F, of

L. immediately would extend the jurisdiction of its coal and metal mine unions.

Several weeks ago the State obtained a ruling in Marion Superior Court that subsequent dividend payments by trustees of the old

bank should have been on the basis of the $1,229,181 figure in=stead of the $937,146 claim remaining after sale of the collateral. On the $1 ,181 basis, past dividend payments would have wiped out the State's balance. Today's draft was in compliance with the
