WASHINGTON--The International Ladies Garment Workers Union, a rich union with 250,000 members, brought new pressure for labor peace tonight and indicated it may rejoin the American Federation of Labor if unity is not attained by May, 1940.
The I. L. G. W. U. executive board, which quit the C. I. O. in November, 1938 on the eve of that organization's first constitutional convention, adopted a resolution declaring that peace between the Federation and the C. I. O. is a "primary need to the well-being and the progress of American workers."
