The article focuses on the political progressions in the U.S. The speed with which temporary neutrality legislation was rushed through the U.S. Congress dramatizes the American people's passionate abhorrence of war. At first sight it would seem that the new neutrality legislation precludes any action on the U.S. part in support of the League against an aggressor. The new York State Federation of Labor representing the largest section of the organization, at its recent convention at Albany, New York, reflected a proposal for the formation of a labor party and turned down a resolution favoring industrial as against craft unions, threw out a Communist, and proclaimed its whole-hearted support of the Democratic Administration, both national and local.
