By raul Mallon
(Copyright, 19S4, by Paul Mallon.)
WASHINGTON, Oct. S3. The brawl
at th A. F. of L. convention Is not
over. It hu only begun. The In
side on that high
ly Important la
ta or background
situation Is this:
A man named
Roosevelt or Far
ley or something
like that put Mr.
John h. Lewis up
to promoting the
constitutional
amendment Idea
at the conven
tion. Denials will
be In order now,
but among the
PAUL. MALl-ON
parties of the first part here It Is
generally understood that Mr. Lewis
has become the outstanding labor
leader as far as this administration
Is concerned.
His adversaries were Messrs. Duffy
and Hutchinson, two able political
carpenters who have sawed Repub
lican wood exclusively In the past.
Thus, when Mr. Lewis punched Mr.
Hutchinson In the nose, cheek and
Hp, at the final convention session,
It was. In a sense, the opening blow
of the coming political campaign. At
least there was more behind the
punch than the highly publicised
question of unionization methods.
This version partly explains why
there probably never will be a third
party representing labor In this coun
try. The leaders all have political
ties. ; Furthermore, the A. F. of L.
has the most powerful lobby In Wash
ington, even more powerful than the
American Legion. Its Influence Is
based largely on political respect and
fear of Its bi-partisan voting power.
Few congressmen of either party oare
to get on the A. F. of L. blacklist.
But If labor ever ventured to put Its
own candidiases In the field, this
threat Influence would be eliminated.
The issue was not out to roll-call
at the- convention. If It had been,
the Inside check-up Indicated that
he third party Idea would have been
voted down five to one. Labor wheel
horses know which bin the oats are
In.
A rumor has been curling around
headquarters here since the conven
tion suggesting that the fight over
unionization methods may bring the
A. F. of L. to a break-up within a
year. It is said that Mr. Lewis may
break off from the federation and
attempt to establish separate unions

Even as a weakened wall of the an

crashed under a new succession of
moderate tremors, citizens of this

Unfounded rumors that a majority
