The leaders in the movement de- clare that while they may not be guccessful at this convention, they will continue their efforts to put the question before labor and that if there is no action this year, they will return to the battle in future meetings. “It is not Mkely the movement will be launched formally at this convention,” said J. F. Emme of the Central Labor Council of St. Paul. “Numerically we have enough friends on the floor to carry it, but the voting strength in the A. F. of L. is not measured in that ‘way and some of the hostile delega- tions are sufficiently superior in mymber of votes to which they are entitled to defeat the issue at this time. “However, even though the issue may fall at this convention the ef- fect of the debate will be felt and when we return to the next national convention we will have whittled down the margin of opposition still narrower.” PORTLAND, Oct. 6—(By The ‘Associated Press.)}—Labor will de- vote its efforts toward organization of workers rather than relying en- tirely upon legislative action for the correction of industrial evils, as a result of action at the convention of the American Federation of Labor today after consideration of the de- cision of the United States supreme court killing the minimum wage law for women.
