of America had rone on record today aa
fTorinic Government ownership of
Industries, the Socialists among; the
1100 delegates launched a resolution
Indorsing their party as "the political
party of the workln class." but it met
reslstanre. Stormy debate occurred at
the afternoon session and the question
went over until tomorrow.
Action was also deferred on a reso
lution providing that the United M!n
Workers shoulJ withdraw from the
American Federation of Labor, con.
demnlnc the National Civic Federation
as an aaent of capitalists, and sharply
criticising; Samuel Gompera. John
Mitchell and other leaders of the Fed
eration of Labor for co-operation with
tha Clrle Federation.
Fellttral Meve Restated.
Because of the constitution of th
Mine Workers stipulating that it shall
be non-political, the resolution com
mittee reported that It had not con
curred In the resolution commlttlns;

but offered a substitute declaring "It
would be well If workers would nnlta

John Walker, president of the Illi
nois miners, speak ins; for the Socialists.
Intimated that If necessary an effort
would be made to amend tha consti

Indorse the Socialist party.
Protesting aa-alnst the campaign of
the Socialists In the convention. James
Meoney. president of the Missouri
miners, declared the flelee-ates coold
not pledsje the mine workers of Ameri
ca to any political party.
"I have just as much right to force
yon to join the Democratic or Republi
can party as you have to bind me to
the Socialist party." be aald.
Gesisers C ailed "Reartlomary."
Antagonists of the resolution pro
viding for chances In the form of the
Federation of Labor appeared In both
the conservative and the Socialist fac
tions. The resolution committee was
Instructed to group proposed measures
advocating the transformation of the
Federation of Labor from an associ
ation of crafts" nnlona to a general
Industrial organisation, each of whose
members could depend on the other
to co-operate with It In strikes. A
Urge number of such resolutions have
been offered.
Samuel Gompers was characterised
is a "reactionary" by Thomas L. Lewis,
former National president of the min
ora. "As long as Oompers Is at the
bead of the Federation It will oppose
general Industrial organisation aa con
trasted with the separate crafts' union
.deaa." he said. "But the time will come
when leaders In the FederaUon will
be compelled to step down or come
over to the principle of a closed for
mation, working for the benefit of the
hole laboring class."

pride. I sincerely hope that Congress
will not. In Its anxiety to reduce ex
penditures, economise by cutting off
an appropriation which is likely to offer
greater opportunity for real economy
In the future than any other estimated
for."
To date, the President aald. the Com
mission has cost the people about 10,
000. Without having put In effect more
than a few reforms It has suggested
changes that will save $1,000,000 a year.
Taft Weald Drop Noa-Workers.
In many ways, the President in
formed Congress, a decrease in the cost
of Government might be assured. There
Is need, he said, of reorganization of
the Government departments, a consoli
dation and a weeding out of bureaus
that overlap in their work: scores of
"local offices" throughout the country
should be abolished, and hundreds of
political appointees who do but little
work should be taken off the payroll.
The Treasury Department. Mr. Taft
showed, looked after the Nation's fi
nances and the life-saving service.
The Commission, he said, had recom
mended the abolition of the Revenue
Cutter Service, which would mean a
saving of $1,000,000 a year.
The President urged the adoption of
the "budget system." which would
bring before Congress, the press and
the people of the country not only the
proposed expenditures of the Govern
ment, but Its revenues.
"The United States Is the only great
Nation whose Government is operated
without a budget," he said.
Later, the President declares, he in
tends to send to Congress a plan for
. i n a - alvll aervlce emnloves
on pensions which will safeguard the
Government interest and yet provide
for their old age.
