"ROFITEERS SAID TO HATE
ATTACKED CXI OAS.
lnierican Federation of Labor to
Consider Open Shop and
Wage Redactions.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 16. Represen
tatives of the 109 unions affiliated
with the American Federation of
Labor have been called to meet here
February S3 to consider "attacks be
ing made on trade unionism," accord
ing to an announcement made today
by Frank Morrison, secretary of the
federation. The call was sent out by
President Samuel Gompers.
Secretary Morrison, in a statement,
aid that the conference Is one of
everal similar gatherings called by
the American Federation of Labor
during its history to consider unusual
conditions. Concerning the Intention
to rive attention to attacks on trade
Unionism, he said:
"These attacks Include attempts to
establish the anti-union shop, wage
reductions, anti-strike laws, compul
sory arbitration, labor Injunctions
nd a publicity that would mold the
public mind to accept these backward
steps.
"I believe labor will formulate a
plan to expose the pretense of men
who are only Interested In cheap
labor and a continuance of their
profiteering: policy. The trade union
movement is alert to " the forces
against it, and proposes to act vigor
ously and courageously. Our oppon
ents are mistaken if they imagine
they have made the slightest progress
In alarming the workers, or that they
will humbly accept a policy of re
action, i
"The conference will consider the
publicity and other methods of our
opponents, and it is quite possible
that labor will launch an offensive
movement against those who imagine
they control practically every avenue
of publicity."
CATA ON LABOR SOUGHT
Immigration Agencies in Latin
American Countries Toted.
MEXICO CITY, Jan. l.(By the
Associated Press.) Immigration
agencies in all Latin-American coun
tries for the collection and dissemi
nation of Information regarding labor
conditions will be established under a
resolution adopted by the Pan-Ameri-ean
Federation of Labor congress
yesterday. Delegates from the United
States and Porto Rico opposed the
Idea, but were voted down.
The resolution, introduced by the
Mexican d-elegation, gave rise to
much debate, during which Samuel
Gompers, president of the congress,
was compelled frequently to explain
United States labor conditions.
Mr. Gompers asserted that upwards
of 1.500,000 immigrants were received
in the United States each year and
that 15,000,000 persons In Europe
were ready to come to America. He
added a note of warning, saying that
there were more than 2,009,000 unem
ployed in the United States. He said
that the iyternatlonal labor office at
Geneva had undertaken the investi
gation of immigration in every phase
and would soon publish Important
findings. After much debate the
original resolution was adopted.

EMIGRATION IX 1020 DOUBLE
THAT OF 1019.
Best Classes Declared Going to
Brazil, Argentina, Mexico
and United States.
BERLIN, Jar.. 16. Emigration to
Brazil, Argentina, Mexico and the
United States during the. first three
quarters of 1920 reached 6010, of
whom only a very few went to the
United States. This is approximately
twice the number of - emigrants in
1919, but a bare fraction of the num
ber predicted.
Estimates were still being made
that 6,000,000 Germans are preparing
to depart, dependent, however, on
their raising the money for trans
portation. Most of the emigrants. It
was reported, will head for Brazil,
which is offering inducements. Of
ficial circles apparently were much
exercised over the class of persons
leaving the country. The. head of the
imperial office said:
"Those leaving are from our best
class; the bolshevists, very poor and
ultra-radical, are remaining. Eco
nomic conditions are forcing this sit
uation.
Immigration officials have begun
preparing a new law in response to
demands for the regulation of the
outgoing tide, which. Dr. Max Hirsch
believes, "eventually will result in a
weakened, probably an anaemic Ger
man race and impaired German culture."

ference at Paris.)

LONDON, Jan. 16. (Special Cable.)
America has a great opportunity
for the time is propitious for a cour
ageous lead in lessened armament
spending. The British naval pro
gramme is In abeyance; Japan has
asked a halt; d'Annunzio's legion
naires have been blown out of Fiume
by a blast of public impatience; the
French militarists have been defeated
In the chamber of deputies, and
above all, peoples everywhere are
sick of war. Should America point
the way, the league of nations would
assuredly follow her lead In this di
rection for the assembly, with Anglo
Japanese concurrence, has declared In
favor of the limitations of armaments.
Viscount Grey is one of the safest
and sanest men and he, perhaps more
than any other man In Great Britain,
accurately senses the present needs.
Worthy, indeed, of the man was h
speech in Glasgow the other day,
when he said that armaments still
endangered the peace of the world,
and he urged that their growth be
carefully watched, and if possible,
arrested so that no country might
again force? the killing pace. He com
mented upon the ghastly precedent of
victorious Germany forcing the
Franco-Russian alliance by forming
the triple combination of Germany,
Austria and Italy, and he warned
against the possibilities of allied ex-
clusiveness now that we are in the
position Germany held 50 years ago.
Will these wise words be heeded? To
me, it seems that the time has come.
not only to check the growth but
concurrently lessen all firearms, yet
the only relief is in the reduction of
expenditures and here is America's
opportunity for leadership.
League Is Strengthened.
The league of nations has been
strengthened by the first plenary
meeting. Although obeying instruc
tions, the Argentine delegates' with
drawal when their amendments were
not accepted, concerned nobody seri
ously. Therefore the Argentine presi
dent is probably sorry now that he
forced his country briefly Into un
desired prominence. The league may
modify the covenant to get the co
operation of all nations, but it won't
be bullied. It has ccme to stay and
has the backing of peoples who will
finally determine the attitude of poli
ticians and presidents.
The new Cunard line stock issue of
four million sterling (normally about
20,000,000) to complete Its shipbuild
ing programme, shows notable enter
prise and confidence. It is a cheering
lining to the somber cloud of de
pression hanging over the industrial
world. ,
Trade Being: Arranged.
But a return to prosperity depends
upon the re-establishment of credit
of countries desolated by the war so
they may again buy from countries
like America, where productive ca
pacity has been only slightly im
paired. We are all in the same boat
and must pull together if we desire
to surmount commercial depression.
unemployment and class conflict. It
is also satisfactory to note that the
financial economic organization grow
ing out of the recent Brussels confer
ence is now arranging credits for the
rjoorer countries.
The conference for arranging trade
between Great Britain and Russia still
hangs fire. Krassin has gone home.
Meantime, despite a general desire
for resumption, trade is at a stand
still. There are two Important diffi
