participated over the question OF
admission of liquor dealers. Ac-

and professional gamblers are
barred from membership, but Grand
Master Gamble of the Minnesota
grand lodge, held that this included
all who dealt in liquors, such as
hotel keepers who run bars, agents
for breweries and distilleries,
wholesale dealers. The judici-
airy committee in its report took
issue with the grand master,
declaring that such sweep
ing classification was contrary to
the fundamental laws of the order.
After long discussion, however,
the report of the committee was re-
jected, and the grand masters S
opinion was confirmed. The ques.
ton will be submitted for final ad.
Indication to the sovereign grand
lodge.
