I Stand of A. F. L. and C. I. 0.
Embarrassing to Him.
O'Connor Says.
Bj the Associated Press.
Chairman O'Connor of the House
Rules Committee charged yesterday
that both the A. F. of L. and the C. I.
O. are "hurting the chances" of wage
(Unir legislation at the coming session
of Congress by statements criticizing
the pending bill.
Engaged in an effort to extricate the
measure from his committee, in which
It was pigeonholed last Summer by a
lombination of Republicans and South
K ..._.
ern Democrats, the New Yorker added
he had been “embarrassed” by the at
titudes of the two labor organizations.
“You don't give a man something
he doesn’t want,” he said.
Nevertheless, O’Connor expressed
confidence that early in the special
session, called for November 15, the
committee would reverse itself and re
port the measure for action by the
House as a whole. Getting that done,
he s%id, was a “matter of simple
mathematics.”
It was plain that he expected at least
two members of the Republican
Southern Democrat coalition which
blocked the bill at the last session to
switch to the other side of the argu
ment.
O'Connor was of the opinion that
this would be done.
The committee chairman said the
C. I. O. and A. P. of L. statements to
which he referred had been made
since President Roosevelt called the
special session of Congress and de
livered his last fireside chat on Tues
day of last week.
In addressing the C. I. O. confer
ence in Atlantic City last Friday John
L. Lewis, head of the organization, re
ferred to the bill as “that poor, halt
ing wages and hours bill that finally
emerged from the committee.”
In convention In Denver the A. F.
of L. approved a committee report
criticizing aspects of the measure on
the ground, among others, that it con
stituted an intrusion upon the right of
workers to improve their economic
condition by collective bargaining
through labor unions.

CONGRATULATE QUINN
ON CLOSING RACE TRACK
The board of directors of the Wash
ington Federation of Churches today
sent a telegram to Oov. Robert E.
Quinn of Rhode island commending
him for closing the Narragansett race
track.
The track is controlled by Walter
O'Hara, an operator who also was in
terested in opening a race track at
Benning in the District. At the last
session of Congress, when a bill was
being considered to permit racing here,
the federation was one of the bitterest
opponents of the measure.
The sending of the telegram was
voted yesterday at the monthly meet
ing of the board.
