On the other hand, President Samuel Gompers was striving for reelection upon his recomd of the past 41 years asa leader in the American labor movement In his first public statement as to his platform, Mr. Lewis, president of t the United Mine Workers, said: “I stand for government ownership of thq railroads, nationalization of the mines and other progressive legi tion that will give the workers and the tollers of America the freedom and justice in industry they deserve. PI stand for health insurance, old- age pensions and unemployment in- surance—all progressive measures for the relief to the working masses. The enactment of laws covering these sub- Jects would give to the workers ade- quate protection and reward them for the service they have rendered in- dustry, Mr. Lewis said that he had taken no definite stand on the subject of relations -with Buropean trades. union movements, adding 5 “I believe, however, that some fox: | ical proposition can be worked out by which, thé American labor movement can again be affiliated with the In- ternational Féderation of Trades Unions. Of course, the autonomy of the American organization must be fully guaranteed. “In any evont, I do not believe we should lose contact with the Eu- ropean organization." “AlL my policies,” he continued, “will be formulated on a sane and con- structive basis. and be designed to meet and adequately dispose of the great issues that today confront or- ganized Jabor.’* While President Gompers issued no statement, supporters speaking in his behalf, declared that “his record in the American labor movement during the past 41 years would re-elect him to the presidency.” This made the issues between the two candidates clear, as President Gompers has already gone on record against government ownership, un- employment insurance, health insur- ance, and other similar. proposed legis lative measures. Supporters of both candidates con- tinued their campaigns at top speed to- day, carrying their electioneering to the floor of the convention, where went from group to group of delegates soliciting their support Little change, however, was shown in the lineups for the candidates. The Lewis boomers made public a telegram sent by John. Hessler, presi- Gent, and. William Mitch, secretary of the Indiana district, United Mine Workers, to Frank Farrington, prest dent of the Illinois district, Robert Harlan, president of the Washington Gistrict, and Alexander Howatt, presi dent wf the Kansas district, urging them to vote for the miners’ leader. All three of these district mine leaders are delegates to the convention and are reported ‘opposed to Lewis. The telegram said’ that the executive board of the Indiana district had. held a meeting to canvass the situation and was “convinced that the great mass of Indiana miners overwhelmingly fa vored a change in the presidenc the American Federation of Labor. Mure-than 200 resolutions from local miners’ unions in all section of the country approving the candidacy of the miners’ chief, have been received at the Lewis campaign headquarters, it was stated. ‘The railroad erganizations up to to- day had not decided which candidate they would support.
