BY “LABOR HATERS” AGAINST AMERICANISM SAYS WATT CHICAGO, DL—Industrialists and politicians who are trying to arouse hate against labor were accused here by Robert J. Watt, AFL international representative, of “planting a time bomb against our democratic institutions.” Watt made bis blunt charge before an audience of 2,000 employers at a national meeting of the American Management Association. !

C.—The American Federation of Labor announced that it will hold a National Post-War Forum at the Commodore Hotel in New York City on April 12 and 13. Outstanding national leaders of labor, industry, agricul ture and the Government are being invited to attend. "This forum will be the means of focusing attention on plans to realise the purposes for which we are fighting this . war," AFL President William Green said. “As our armies battle on the firing line and our civilian labor force produces the materials to supply the armed forces and to maintain our nation, we must at the same time plan to win the peace. To fall short on any of these fronts is to fall short in win ning the war." The two main topics of the forum will be plans for estab lishing lasting peace and plans for organizing a post-war economy which will provide jobs for all. Authorities on special problems will be invited to pre sent their views on bask 'post-war issues to the conference, in addition to general discussion by those in attendance. The detailed program for the forum is being arranged by Matthew Woll, chairman of the AFL Post-War Committee. Mr. Green urged all national and international unions, State Federations of Labor and city central bodies to send representatives to the forum. ... THE POUR FREEDOMS 1. Freedom of speech and expression everywhere in the world. <**#■■- - s 2. Freedom of every person to worship God in his own way—everywhere in the world. 3.
