LABOUR MOVEMENT
EFFORT AT UNITY IN AMERICA. Received Oct. 13, 8.20 p.m. ATLANTIC CITY, Oct. 12. The conference of the Committee of Industrial Organisation unanimously requested the American Federation of Labour to meet it and consider methods of unifying the American Labour movement. The invitation was immediately sent to Denver, where the American Federation of Labour was holding its convention, and brought an informal intimation that a solution of the problem could not be expected if the Committee of Industrial Organisation insisted on the acceptance of its radical industrial unionisation programme.
The A.F.L. president, Mr. Green, commenting later r said: “It smacks of insincerity and lacks good faith, but the invitation will be submitted to the executive council.”
