F. of L. Charter Negotiations for an American Fed- cration of Labor charter, which so far has been denied due to the af- filiation with the Federation of the pposing faction, Local 203, Interna- tional Union of Mine, Mill and Smel- ter Workers, are still in progress, it | was revealed in Friday's meetings. Officials of the Association express- | cd the hope that once the commun- ity, the outside government officials, | andithe American Federation of La- | bor ‘“‘understands the situation,” a charter wil be forthcoming. St2ps were being taken, Lynam revealed, | to bring this about in the very n2ar future Both the Maritime Federation and the International Longshoremen’s| Asseciation of the Pacific Coast, ac cording to the Juneau Mine Workers’ | Association officials, have “regarded this strike as a local affair from the first” and “had the International Lengshoremen'’s Association here not flagrantly disobeyad their orders, the strike would never have been pro- | longed to the present siate of af-| fairs,” they asserted. Ageinst Recreation Hall It was emphatically stated that the | JMWA was not in favor of the “rec- reation hall.” to be built by the com- pany, rumors of which have teen heard for months. “We feel that there are many more worthy pur- poses in which that money could be expended,” it was declared. One of these purposes, voted on in Friday's sergion, was the establishment of a benefit cludb to supply sick benefits to cever such illnesses as do not come within the ccmpensation laws. A committee to establish and operate | cuch a club will be chosen early in January, James Lynam, originator of the benefit club plan, said today. Officers for the coming year were installed durmg the evenl‘ng session. FINAL SERVIGE | TODAY AT ELKS FOR C. N.
