THE EVENING STAR, TUESDAY, K JANUARY 18, 1921 RE-ELECT GOMPERS; ~ ALSO ATTACK HIME | | | Labor Ué;egates at Mexico City Farce Chief to Take Fioor in 3wn Defense. By the Associsrad Toin. MEXICU CITY, January 18.—Amer ican delegates to the congress of the Pan-American Feredation of Labor will leave Mexico City tonight re- gardless of whether the cong: completes its work at today's ses- sion. Yesterday's session provided the first real excitement of the consre and there were many tense moments when it appeared the Spanish-spea ing delegates were about to oust Samuel Gompers from the leadership of the federation. They coupled their attack upon him with bitter criticism on the foreign policy of the United States government, and so vehew>nt became his' opponents that the vet-| eran labor leader called Treasurer James L. Lord to take the chair, and answered his critics from the floor. | He concluded his address by declin- ing the nomination for the presidency | of the federation and insisted that his name should not be considered. The moment after Mr. Gompers left the floor Luis Morones, a Mexican, whose candidacy had been pressed by the Guatemalan delegation, with- drew from the contest. Mr. Gompers then was again placed in nomination by Daniel J. Tobin, and on motion by Mr. Lord he was elected unanimous- ly. one delegate from Salvador. Guatemala and Mexico each casting a dissenting vote against the motion. The oratorical fireworks concerning Mr. Gompers' delay in_sending a cablegram to President Wilson rel tive to the evacuation of San Do-i mingo by American armed forces| were effectively squelched during the noon recess. At that time the reso Jutions committee conferred with hte San Domingan and Mexican delega- tions and effected a compromise which was accepted unanimously by the congress as soon as the afternoon session opened. It provided that Mr. Gompers should request, in the name of the congress, that the United States government accelerate the withdrawal of forces from San D mingo. —_— MISS ROSE PEAK DIES..
