STATE FEDERATION
MUST HAVE POWER
Resolution Adopted At'Rock Hill Meet.
Should Set Time and Conditions
of Organization Campaigns.
Rock Hill, Sept. 29.—A resolution
declaring each state federation of la
bor and the United Textile Workers
of America should jointlly determine
“when and how” an organization cam
paign should be conducted among tex
tile operatives was adopted today at
the closing session of the two South
ern labor conferences.
The resolution as adopted was a
compromise reached after Louis P.
Marquardt, secretary-treasurer of the
Georgia Federation of Labor, had in
troduced one which would have put
the conference on record as favoring
leaving the decision as to when and
how organization work should be con
ducted in each state up to that state’s
labor organization.
The state federations of labor are
the state governing units of the Amer
ican Federation of Labor with»which
the United Textile \VQrkers of Ameri
ca is affiliated.
Marquardt’s resolution was bitterly
opposed by Francis J. Gorman, inter
national vice-president of the United
Textile Workers of America.
“Don’t put us in the position where
we must sacrifice our rights to the
state organization,” he pleaded.
Marquardt cited instances where he
said Georgia labor had been injured
by organizers who “drifted in and
stirred up turmoil and left it to the
state organization to carry on.”
“The inference is left,” said Alfred
Hoffman, representative of the Unit
ed Textile Workers and the hosiery
workers in North Carolina, “that we
go crashing into a local city where we
are not wanted.”
In the compromise the resolution
was made to read; “That each state
federation of labor and the United
Textile, Workers of America shall de
termine when and how campaigns
shall be conducted.”
campaign. I honestly think that to
give the state federation the entire
power would reflect on the United
Textile Workers of America. Don’t
let it go out of here that we are not
capable.”
Dowell E. Patterson, president of
the South Carolina Federation of La
bor, defended Marquardt’s position,'
declaring, “I think we know the eco
nomic conditions better in a particu
lar locality. We are not trying to take
anything from the United Textile
Workers.”
Today’s meeting again saw the
“Communists” excluded from the
gathering. At the opening this morn
ing Gorman again announced that
