When the report of President Gompors to the American Federation of Labor was called for today, Com pere relinquished the chair to Seventh Vice President Valentine. Each subject of the report was commented upon and approved by the committee as the reading proceeded, and tho convention endorsed the recommendations of the committee and the action of Gotopers in regard to the Buck Stove and Range, Company in junction was unanimously endorsed by a rising vote. There was no discussion of the committee's report until the sub-head, "Litigation harassing labor" was reached. On this subject the committee declared that when a judge issued an in junction in labor disputes it is the duty of organized labor to dis obey and go to jail, and advised that the funds of the organisa tion be not used to defend any such suit "because it believes it would be a useless expenditure." James Duncan, of the Granite Cutters, first vice president of the Federation, opposed the recommendation. He said that un- 1 ion men were law-abiding men and should proceod li'to a ay other citizens to defend themselves at all hazards. He moved to strike out the words advising labor men to disobey the injunctions. President Andrew Furuseth of the Seamen's union, uphold i the report of the committee.
