AFL Claims Evidence i
Os Soviet Kidnapings
Inside Free Europe
By James Y. Newton
Star Staff Correspondent
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 19
The American Federation of Labor
w'ill present evidence to the United
Nations to show that Soviet Russia
is engaging in widespread kid
naping activities in Western Ger
many. Austria and other free
countries near the Iron Curtain, j
The U. N. will be askefl to inves- |
tigate the charges in a resolution
to be put before the AFL’s con
vention. probably Friday.
Irving Brown, chief of the AFL’s
European staff said the request
will be based on documents now "
being collected and checked by his
men. He said that the material
will show numerous instances in
which persons were snatched from
their homes and places of business
and taken into Soviet territory.
Victims Not Identified.
Mr. Brown refused to identify
the victims in advance of the
presentation of the material to
the convention, but it was said
that some of the kidnaped persons
were trade union leaders of Ger
many and Austria who are sym
pathetic to aims of the free world.
The convention resumed its work 1
today after a one-day recess.
Oscar Ewing, Federal Security Ad
ministration, was speaking today.
He will be followed by Secretary
of Interior Chapman, Price Direc
tor Michael V. DiSalle, and pos
sible Robert A. Lovett, the new
Defense Secretary, and Vice Pres
ident Barkley.
Meanwhile, the AFL issued a
blunt warning to the Democratic
Party not to consider the labor
support it has received in recent!
years as an automatic “sure
thing.”
Labor Aims Cited.
The warning was issued by
James L. McDevitt of Philadelphia,
newly selected director of the fed
eration’s Labor League for Politi
cal Education. Mr. McDevitt, who
is president of the Pennsylvania
Federation of Labor, said that
politicians in either major party
who want labor votes can get
them only by supporting labor’s
aims.
“The impression is prevalent,”
Mr. McDevitt said, “that our
league will support the Democrats
no matter what they do. That
definitely is not true.”
He said the AFL does not wish
to be identified with either party
and will support candidates who
support labor regardless of their
party affiliation.
Mr. McDevitt refused to predict
how the AFL’s support will go in
next year’s elections. He said:
“We might have to swallow our
words.” He indicated, however,
the AFL definitely is interested in
finding out how Gen. Eisenhower
stands on labor and other domes
tic issues.
Truman Not Mentioned.
He spoke kindly of Gov. War
ren of California, and said he
did not think Gov. Dewey had a
chance of getting the Republican
nomination. The name of Presi
dent Truman wss not mentioned
in Mr. McDevitt’s first news con
ference.
Federation spokesmen have
made it clear here that they no
longer wish to be identified solely
with the Democrats and will end
their co-operation with the CIO
in political matters. In fact, the
general feeling toward the CIO
is one of bitterness in conven
tion circles.
