AMERICAN LABOR.
ADDRESS BY MR. GOMPERS. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. New York, June 12. Addressing the Federation of Labor Convention at Cincinnatti, Mr. Gompers said organised labor was in no mood to have its constitutional rights taken from it by any subtle reasoning or assumption of power, no matter whence it emanated. Labor was prepared to light the open shop. Discussing the Armament Conference, Mr. Gompers declared that not much had been accomplished, compared with what remained to be done, but a beginning had been made. Labor deserved credit for initiating the movement. Mr. Gompers urged the scrapping of submarine and destroyers.
