Charges Government Charls Labor’s Destruction Injunction Proceedings Are Planned Against Arnold’s Prosecutions By the Associated Prese. PITTSBURGH, May 2.—Ameri- | can Federation of Labor spokesmen charge the Government's investi- gator of building trade practices either through malice or political motives has charted a course “hell bent for the destruction of organized labor.” This assertion before the Penn- | sylvania Federation of Labor con- vention prompted presentation yes- terday of a resolution denouncing | activities of Assistant Attorney Gen- eral Thurman Arnold in invoking the Sherman anti-trust law against trades unions in his Nation-wide in- quiry. The resolution demands a court | interpretation of the act as applied |to worker organizations. Immedi- ately came announcement from A. F. of L. forces that injunction pro- | ceedings would be instituted to pre- | vent further ‘prosecutions by Mr. Arnold pending such action. Where the proceedings would be instituted was not disclosed. Hold to Union Label, Leaders in the construction trades | were represented as being unalter- ably opposed to the Assistant At- torney General's holding that closed W [shop contractors must accept non- union fabricated materials. “Through use of the union label,” declared one spokeman, “building trades unions have undertaken the B |task of standardizing such mate- | ‘trials on the same high-quality basis |as other proven commodities. If | that (Mr. Arnold’s) interpretation |is to apply, trade unions may as well dissolve.” | The bitter attack on the Govern- | ment prosecutor, whose inquiry the i past year resulted in indictment of | hundreds of firms and individuals, came yesterday from John P. Coyne, president of the A. F. of L. build- ing construction trades department, and Matthew Woll, Federation in- ternational vice president. No Reflection on New Deal. They of Mr. Arnold should not be con- strued as reflecting upon the New Deal and also declared they held no guilty of corruption. vigorous protests with President Roosevelt and Attorney General Jackson against invasion “and at- of long-established rights for trades unionism.” Mr. Coyne said that never before had the Sherman law been brought to bear to curb building trades union practices, adding “but under this schoolboy, Arnold, criminal | indictments are being held over the heads of honest union men. The | Government has no place in these cases. The Federation cannot and will not condone this at election.” Sees Labor Centralization. tration “through this form of perse- cution” might be attempting centralize control of labor union: Imbedded dirt not only emphasized denunciation | brief for individuals who might be | Delegates were urged to lodge tempted invalidation by Mr. Arnold | He stated the national admims-:’ THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D.

On the same premise, there is no industry in the United States that is free from this same Govern- | ment desire for control.” Mr. Woll likened Mr. Arnold’s pro- cedure to “Hitlerism,” and asserted use of the anti-trust law was “sheer perversion of justice.” He asked “why this belated application of the Sherman Act, the original intention of which was to protect labor.” Alexundriu Waltons Elect H.
