WORK TO BE BY DAY LABOR

Had John J. Purcell, business agent OF
Local No. % International Brotherhood
of Electrical Workers of America. cared
to inform himself as to the facts. he
probably would not have thought it
necessary to send his protest to the
President against the award of the al
legged teen-thousand-dollar electrical
contract for the Congressional Library
Bernard Green. superintendent OF the
Congressional Library, said last night:
about a year or SO ago we erected
new bookstack room in the southeast
courtyard Of the Library building. 1t
proved to be rather dark. and TO properly
and safely light it was a delicate task
and more or less of a problem. invited
proposals from one local and several
large electrical concerns which I thought
were competent to do the work. / re-
ceived but three or four bids as the re-
suit. and when they were opened l told
the bidders they were not as low as had
expected. / had no thought of entering
into a contract at the time. and my in
vitation for proposals was rather in the
nature. of search for information.
To Be by Day Labor.
LAS matter of fact. I then made up
my mind to invite proposals for furnish
ing materials for doing the work and to
have it done by day labor under my own
supervision, as a great deal of the cleo
trical wiring for the Library has already
been done.
Il hope by Tuesday to have matters In
such shape that / can advertise for pro-
posals to furnish the materials, and when
these are procured 1 will undertake the
work myself.
IF Mr.. PurcelPs statement is correctly
published it contains many errors Of facts
I have not seen the original statement,
and Librarian Putnam, to whom 1t is al
legged to have been referred, Is away from
the city. ! presume 1t will reach me later
on. as the matter to which it refers comes
within my exclusive jurisdiction.
Continues Original Purpose.
II did not know when Mr.. Purcell called
on me who he was or in what capacity he
came. Nothing he has said or done has
had any effect whatever In changing my
original purpose in this matter
Mr. Purcell yesterday declared that the
decision of Mr.. Green to do the electrical
wiring in the new bookstacks of the LII
brary by days work was victory for
the organization which he represents. as
it provides for doing the work as the
union desires.

TO KEEP HIS PLEDGE
Gov. Brown Will Veto Any
Liquor Legislation.
HOLDS PROMISE BINDING
Drys Now Handicapped by Ante
Election Action.
HAD ENACTED ASSURANCES
Executive Will Disapprove the
Alexander Bill to Do Away
With "Near-Beer."

/ ATLANTA. Ga. July 24.-Two facts de-
yeloped today in the prohibition fight in
the state legislature. The first is that
Gov. Brown will veto the Alexander bill
doing away with ''ncar-beer as soon
as II reaches him. should it pass
both houses. The second is that the
governor, by an ante-election pledge, is
bound not to call special session of the
assembly, even if the prohibitionists de-
sire one
That the governor will veto the measure
is attested by his closest friends When
asked about it, he replied: when the
bill reaches me- if it ever does, | will an
i:ounce my decision then, but not until
then
Pledge to Prohibitionists.
Before he was elected the prohibitionists
visited Gov. Brown and made him sign a
pledge that he would resist with the veto
power, if necessary. any attempt TO re-
peal or change by amendment other
wise the present prohibition law. At
that time the drys did not anticipate the
necessity of any change. Browns friends,
however. say that the executive believes
the pledge he gave is binding.
That the governor would not call 4
special session of the assembly, even for
the drys is believed from pledge he
made before election. He then declared
that when prohibition was an issue the
people had a right to know it at the time
legislators were being elected, as it might
change their votes. On this ground, he
declared, he would oppose any liquor leg
islation during his term of office because
the LIQUOR question was not an issue when
the present legislators We're elected.
Bill Read a Second Time
The Alexander bill was read second
time in the house this morning with a
score of other bills. The assembly met at
9 am but adjourned to 10 and was in
session only a few minutes. During that
time. however, the drys. without the
knowledge OF the vets, had the measure
read by title for the second time. The
bill must now await it's regular turn OH
the calendar for it's third reading and
final passage. There are several hundred
bills ahead of it and the session has only
seventeen more days of life. The only
chance to pass it, it is believed. is for its
friends to make it a special order by res
olution. This resolution would have to SC
to the rules committee and be adopted by
a majority OF the house. 1t is conceded,
however, that the prohibtionists have
strength enough to make the bill spe-
cial order.
The McLendon inquiry will be resumed
Monday and will occupy the assembly for
several days.
