AN AGREEMENT
LABOUR IN AMERICA APPEAL BY PRESIDENT NECESSARY TO DEMOCRACY (United Press Assn.—Elec. Tel. Copyright) MIAMI. Feb. 25 President Roosevelt- has urgently requested the heads of the American Federation of Labour and the Committee for Industrial Organisation immediately to appoint committees to negotiate a peace agreement. He has given four major reasons for this, as* follows: 1 Because it is right. 2) Because responsible officers of both groups seem to the President to be ready to make and capable of making a negotiated, just, peace. (3) Because the members of the two organisations ardently desire peace and unity for the better ordering of their responsible life in the trades unions and in their communities. (4) Because the Government and people of the United States believe it to be a wise and almost necessary step for the further development of co-operation between free men in a democratic society such as that of America.
