(By Associated Press.)
ATLANTIC CITY. N. J.. Aug. 1.~——
Whether the American Federation
of Labor shall join the big four rull
brotherhood. in supporting the La.
ll‘olleltc-Vl'hccler ticket and thus
throw the weight or it: more ‘tban
four million members behind th
platform adopted by the'Conferen‘c
l‘or Progressive Political Action ‘will
be decided by the executive council
of the American Federation of La.-
bor during the annuahorganlzatbn
conference ot‘ program And policy
opening today.
As the council. presided over by
Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor, Went
in session behind closed doors, re-
ports were current that the La Fol-
lcttc matter would be first on the
program.
Three alternatives lay before the
council in drafting its policy toward
the political question. It may pledge
La Follctte an out-and~out endorse—
ment and active support of his can-
didacy; it may go on record with
an expression of approval of the
platform and candidates of the Con-
ference for Progressive Political Ac-J
lion, or it may do as Mr; Gompers
declares it will do-—-refrain from
stating preference in conference for
any of the presidential tickets, thus
maintaining the traditionally neu.
tral attitude which has been the for-
mal political policy of, the American
Federation of Labor since its organ~
ization.
