League of Nations Approved

in Report Labor Ad

vancement is Considered.

ATLANTIC CITY, N. J, June 10. Important projects for the advancement and improvement ot working conditions, as veil as comprehensive outlines of what has been accomplished on labor's behalf during the last year, are set forth in the report of the executive council of the American Federation of Labor, submitted today to the officers and delegates attending the opening session of the thirty-ninth annual convention. The advent of peace is taken by the council to hold out bright -prospects for labor. Of the peace treaty, itself, the labor executives forming the council, after endorsing the "triumph of freedom and democracy as exemplified in the covenant of the league of nations," says that the labor sections are a compromise but that it must, however, "be a source ol deepest satisfaction to the American working people to know that the American

position and the American declara

tions as presented for insertion in the treaty ranked above all others in point of progress measured and in point of actual and practical application in the

jives vi me woriung people, wnat-

ever of compromise appears was made

because of the claim that other nations of the world could not pledge themselves to an immediate and definite acceptance . as the established practices of our day." Oppose Court Authority. Foremost among the matters submitted by the council to the convention are suggestions dealing with legislation to "prevent any invasion of the rights and prerogatives of the legislative branch of our government by the judiciary." The report of the council on thi3 subject was made in accordance with a resolution adopted by the St. Paul convention. In that resolution the council was ordered to study "the successive steps which have been taken by our iederal and supreme courts through which,, without constitutional authority and in opposition of the action of the constitutional convention, they have laid hold upon power which they now exercise." The study has been partially completed and contains remedial suggestions made by Jackson H. Ralston, attorney of the American Federation of Labor. Three propositions are submitted in the report for consideration of the convention, each proposing that authority of the supreme court to pass upon acts of congress should be canceled or abridged. Arguments for and against the proposals are discussed at considerable length, Mr. Ralston giving it as his opinion that, coupled with judicial reforms there "should go hand in hand the initiative and referendum, propor- . Mortal representation and the preferf dial ballot," without which, he says, ' methods of attaining justice will lack much of completeness." This section of the report closes with the statement that the writer is

convinced that in this subject the executive council has had before it "one of the gravest fundamental questions with which we have had to deal the preservation oi a truly democratic government against what has often been called the 'aristocracy of the robe'." Hoarding Is Charged. Considerable attention is devoted by the report to labor legislation. It is said that some rule should be adopted in congress which would prevent obstructive legislative methods. The report lists among the measures stalled by "the weary waste of worthless words" in the last congress and in which labor was especially interested, . the appropriation bills for the war labor board. United States employment agency, Women industry service. Working conditions service, and the investigation and Inspection service. Discussing what is called the "meat packing monopoly," the council quoted the report of the Federal Trade commission to President Wilson and said that hearings by the house Interstate commerce committee "seemed : to show conclusively the existence of a combination which not only controls and regulates prices of beef, lambs, hogs and other meat, but also eggs, butter, poultry, cheese, rice, fish, canned goods of all descriptions, leather and wool." It is then stated that insofar as "this combination restricts the supply and enhances the cost of these necessries, the laboring people of the country are adversely affected and the

matter becomes one of vital concern to the American Federation of La

bor." It is charged in the report

that the packers "durin gthe war

shortage of leather, when it was difficult to furnish shoes for soldiers, hoarded such quantities of hides that

It was impossible to find proper storage room for them." The development

of Armour and company is discussed at length, but no definite recommendations are made by the executive council.

Kaiser's Only Fault Was Beginning War Too Late, Says General Bernharii (By Associated Press) BERLIN, June 10. General Friedrich von Bernhardi, tie military writer, under the title "Kaiser Wilhelm and Responsibility of the War," declares that the former emperor's only guilt was in not beginning war early enough when his opponents were not equipped and takes the viewpoint in favor of preventive warfare. He says of the Kaiser: "To the last moment he believed Russia would surrender its inimical intentions and England would not take, part in the fighting. In this belief he negotiated to that end and only with difficulty could he be induced to take up the guantlet that had been thrown down to him." General von Bernhardi admits, however, that certain personalities influenced the kaiser's assumntinn f
