De NEDREY'S CHOICE
CAUSES SURPRISE

Board Result of Clever
Move.

Various views were expressed today
by members Of :he Central Labor Union
regarding the election Of Sam De Ned
rev as a delegate to that body.
The Carpenters Union, which elected
him. and the Columbia Typographical
Union which opposed him, each claim
victory, the former because they were
successful in having him named as a
delegate and the latter because they
succeeded in having placed on the min
utes letter from the American Fed
Grafton OF Labor declaring De Nedrey's
former e.fcUiOn as delegate-at-large IL
legal.
The Typographical Union, it is under
stood, will carry the matter 10 the
American Federation OF Labor with a
View Of having tested the legality OF
last nights elsction.
De Nedrey's election was won by a
clever political move immediately fol-
lowing the opening Of the meeting,
letter was read from the editor, who is
in Toronto. IN which he resigned at the
instance Of the American Federation of
Labor. Delegate Considlne, a strong
De Nedrey man, moved it be accepted,
and although taken by surprise. the
motion was seconded by Delegate Harry
Templars the leader of the opposition
AS soon as the resignation was accepted
the United Brotherhood of Carpenters,
No. 132, OF which De Nedrey Is a mem
Der, offered his credentials, with the
motion that he be seated in the body.
Opposing addresses were delivered by
Delegates Templar, Lloyd, and Adams,
but IN the resulting vote De Nedrey
was successful by a vote of . TO g.

indirect attacks were made on Templar,

John B. Dickmen. who had opposed
