representative to be called "sen

to Rep. Robert Taft Jr.
That any Taft in Congress Is

UNITY HOUSE. 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.
