Sy DAN BOWERMAN United Pre** Staff Correspondent
VANCOUVER, B. C.. Oce. 11— (UP)—Greater government spend ing will be demanded of the next congress by the American Federation of Labor.
Higher taxes on the wcalthly also will be asked.
Any attempts to spread the tax burden by a federal levy on sales wilt be fought determinedly hy labor.
The I'nited States congress, the most liberal spending body in the worlds history, will hear no demand for retrenchment from the powerful labor federation, which is the official voice of three million unionized “aristocrats of labor” and claims to speak for millions upon millions of unorganized w orkers ln both overalls and white collars classes, It will hear a demand for spending on Ihe most lavish scale In history.
MONEY FOR MASSES
The huge goM'i-nmenl deficit, v hlch no pedturbes government otfieials and powerful business interests, has nol been mentioned during the ,jlst l.ftbor Federation conv«nllon here. I«ibor delegHtcs wer unanimous in thn opinion that the nation’s millionaires are not entitled to the wealth they own, and that simple Justice demands they be heavily taxed. Labor’s philosophy, on which demands for greater government speudlng are l>Rs«d, Is broad and simple. The road hs'k In prosper liv, in the opinion of President William Oreen and other lenders, can be travelled only by giving the ma cs money lo spend.
Labor believes two per cent of the population owns a great pro portion of the national wealth, with the remaining 98 per cent hard-put lo :nnintnin Ihe American living standard. Labor wishes to re-dlstrlhute that wealth without revolution, and, to accomplish Ihis end, wishes to use a high tax on the wealthy as one means and, by orderly processes, Secure a new distribution of emp’oyreent at the wage standard of 1929 or higher, through voluntary agreement with the industrialists.
LABOR HOPEFUL
Reluctant to use strikes, except when necessary as a last, desperate resort to prewnt wage ruts to the starvation point, the federation realizes it must rely on moral persuasion and logic to bring the great industries to Its point of view. The coming presidential election, closp division or the nexl congress politically, ind the voting strength of labor, however, leads to the hope that the government can be made to adopt labor's philosophy immediately.
About, the only legislative planks of labor not Involving greater government spending are in the "human rights" program of greater freedom from injunctions in labor disputes, and in demand for beer for workingmen.

Sy DAN BOWERMAN United Pre** Staff Correspondent VANCOUVER, B. C.. Oce. 11— (UP)—Greater government spend ing will be demanded of the next congress by the American Federation of Labor. Higher taxes on the wcalthly also will be asked. Any attempts to spread the tax burden by a federal levy on sales wilt be fought determinedly hy labor. The I'nited States congress, the most liberal spending body in the worlds history, will hear no demand for retrenchment from the powerful labor federation, which is the official voice of three million unionized “aristocrats of labor” and claims to speak for millions upon millions of unorganized w orkers ln both overalls and white collars classes, It will hear a demand for spending on Ihe most lavish scale In history. MONEY FOR MASSES The huge goM'i-nmenl deficit, v hlch no pedturbes government otfieials and powerful business interests, has nol been mentioned during the ,jlst l.ftbor Federation conv«nllon here. I«ibor delegHtcs wer unanimous in thn opinion that the nation’s millionaires are not entitled to the wealth they own, and that simple Justice demands they be heavily taxed. Labor’s philosophy, on which demands for greater government speudlng are l>Rs«d, Is broad and simple. The road hs'k In prosper liv, in the opinion of President William Oreen and other lenders, can be travelled only by giving the ma cs money lo spend. Labor believes two per cent of the population owns a great pro portion of the national wealth, with the remaining 98 per cent hard-put lo :nnintnin Ihe American living standard. Labor wishes to re-dlstrlhute that wealth without revolution, and, to accomplish Ihis end, wishes to use a high tax on the wealthy as one means and, by orderly processes, Secure a new distribution of emp’oyreent at the wage standard of 1929 or higher, through voluntary agreement with the industrialists. LABOR HOPEFUL Reluctant to use strikes, except when necessary as a last, desperate resort to prewnt wage ruts to the starvation point, the federation realizes it must rely on moral persuasion and logic to bring the great industries to Its point of view. The coming presidential election, closp division or the nexl congress politically, ind the voting strength of labor, however, leads to the hope that the government can be made to adopt labor's philosophy immediately. About, the only legislative planks of labor not Involving greater government spending are in the "human rights" program of greater freedom from injunctions in labor disputes, and in demand for beer for workingmen.
