<U.P>—Leaders of the Committee for Industrial Organization voted unanimously today in a tumultuous session to propose a peace conference with the American Federation of Labor, from which 10 C.I.O. unions have been suspended.
The resolution made it clear that peace would be predicated upon a recession by the A.F. of L. from its attitude toward industrial unionism.
John L. Lewis, chairman of the C.I.O., described the resolution a6 “timely and statesmanlike/”

In asking for passage of the governmental reorganization bill. Mr. Roosevelt also mentioned foreign conditions indirectly, saying:
“I recognize that democratic processes are necessarily and rightly slower than dictatorial processes, but I refuse to believe that democratic processes need be dangerously slow.’'
REPRESENTS NEED
Mr. Roosevelt said his recent trip to the West Coast convinced him his program represents what “the American people immediately need.” “This does not mean,” he added, “that other legislation to w'hich I am not referring tonight, is not important for our national well-being. But other legislation can be more readily discussed at the regular session.”
TO AVOID DISASTER
“We intend this winter to find a way to prevent four-and-a-half cent cotton, nine-cent corn and thirty-cent w'heat—with all the disaster those prices mean for all of us—from ever coming back again.
“To do that, the farmers themselves w'ant to cooperate to build an all-weather farm program so that in the long run prices will be more stable. They beljeve this can be done, and the national budget kept out of the red.”
The president said at the start of his speech that he was convening congress on November 15 so that it could consider important legislation before the regular session begins and could avoid a lengthy session next year.
Bob Rothschild, elections commissioner, has announced the
seven freshmen eligible for the class presidency.
