(Special Correspondence) New York—The American Fed eration of labor would “resent, resist and reject" any attempt to bring the “state-controlled” Yugo slave trade unions into the Inter national Confederation of Free Trade Unions, writes Vice Presi dent Matthew Woll in the Janu ary issue of the Photo-Engraver, the AFL union's monthly publica tion. Mr' Woll, chairman of the AFL’s International Labor Rela tions Committee, declared in the editorial that “while emphasizing our opposition to bringing Tito, Stalin or Franco, Peron, Trujillo Salazar unions or similar out fits into the ICFTU, we also re affirm the AFL position of wel coming and supporting “Tito’s resistance to afid stuggle against Russia’s attempts to destroy the independence of Yugoslavia.’ ” The statement was occasioned by a report that the second congress of the Yugoslav unions was at tended by fraternal delegates and observers from every Western Eu ropean trade union movement | with two exceptions—Austria and | Italy. I The latter two were not in jvited, said Mr. Woll, because “the I Tito government has territorial claims against both Austria and j Italy” and “this incident in itself ■ sheds very revealing light on the real character of the trade unions in Tito's Yugoslavia. “Because of the attendance of European free trade union move ments, affiliated with ICFTU, of the Tito labor convention and the refusal to attend by the AFL and the CIO, Mr. Woll said it was im portant to make clear the AFL position. “We emphasise that the pres ent Yugoslav trade unions are not free trade unions, are only • state, controlled organizations like those in Russia, Spain and other totalitarian countries,” wrote Mr. Woll. “We underscore that the Yugoslav trade unions are today unfit for membership in the ICFTU We stress that any at-’ tempt to bring them into the fold of the ICFTU would be a crass and deliberate attempt to violate the constitution and foundation principles of the JCFTU. . . . “We of the Aft reject the the NORTH CAROLINA UTILITIES COMMISSION In R»: Application of Duke Power Company for an adjust DOCKET NO.
