Pa lUPD The AFL-CIO's political wing ad vanced plans today for a mid September conference of union leaders from 22 of the nation's biggest cities to open organized labor's activities in the 19ti4 cam paign. AFL-CIO leaders were consid ered certain to rally behind Presi dent Kennedy's expected bid for a second four-year term and con duct another massive get-out-the- vote drive next year. Plans for a Washington meet ing next month to bring together union representatives from ' met ropolitan areas with a population of one million or more were scheduled for discussion by the AFL-CIO Committee on Political Education (COPEi. Members of the AFL-CIO Exec utive Council and about 20 presi dents of national unions were called to review the political outlook. Some union officials said they feared the labor federation's hands-off policy toward the Aug. 28 civil rights march on Wash ington might drive a wedse be tween the AFL-CIO and the Ne gro community. George Meany. AFL-CIO presi dent, announced that the council decided not to endorse or con demn the demonstration. But he aid he would not participate and regarded the march as unwise since it might endanger President Kennedy's civil rights legislation. The council's neutrality drew hot protests from A. Philip Ran dolph, its only Negro member, and Walter P. Reuther, United ' Auto Workers president. They said the statement failed to rec- lognize what Randolph termed a "civil rights revolution in the United States. MONEY . . .
