of farmers who are either “exploited
by the large scale landowners or who
barely exist on small holdings.”
Acting on the committee report, the
convention called for the breaking up
ot all big estates and allotment ot
the land to individual farmers or co-
operatives. Delegates also voted for
stronger laws to protect agricultural
workers. *
Another convention resolution
pledged support of the AFL and Pan-
American unions in any attempt to
divide workers along racial lines. Dur-
ing debate on the subject, the U. 8.
Oovernment was censured for per-
mitting wage discrimination, on the
basis of race, in the Canal Zone.
Seraflno Romualdi. the AFL’s Latin
American representative, told the del-
egates bis owa untoa, the 1 nterns-
tional Ladies Garment Workers Un-

who had eqhal rights with the others.
He said:

He scored “the large numbers” of
managers who, he said, believed that
a fair degree of unemployment is es-
sential for a good industrial relatione,
who argue that "fear makes people
docile.”
It should be the purpose of the American Fed-
eration of Labor to devote its energies to the
elimination of unwarranted discretionary au-
thority wherever and whenever it is transgres-

enacted by the people’s duly elected representa-
