F L Debates Soviet Question in Labor Convention
The committee will recommend that the convention refuse to endorse the Soviet government until Russia has a truly democratic system.

Duncan, for the Seattle Central Labor Council, urges use of influence to oppose foreign troops, including Japanese forces.
