Mr. Tawney's constituents, but he always
has been noted for his fearlessness In
expressing his views on public questions.
He said last evening that he had no
doubt that his attitude would be under
stood in his district, but that whether II
was or not, he had voiced and voted MS
convictions.
Representatives Hughes Of New Jersey,
in advocating an insistence by the House
upon the provision of which he was the
author, declared that former President
Roosevelt had recommended the enact
ment of a law exempting laborers and
farmers organizations from the opera
tons Of the antitrust law. He made the
further claim that it was not unusual for
republicans to advocate class legislation,
and cited as an example the original draft
of the railroad bill, which, he said. pro-
posed to exempt railroads from the
operations of the antitrust law.
''This," he said, was an Endorsement
of a principle from one high in authority
If it is fair for railroads, why isn't 1t
fair for labor unionS?"
Then came the vote, with the result
mentioned. There was wild applause for
a few minutes after Speaker Cannon an
nounced the result and it became ap-
parent that Congress would not be de-
iayed in it's adjournment, on account OF
this controversy, at least.

Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
POUGHKEEPSIE, n. Y, June 24.-Most
OF the crews had it rather easy yesterdsJ
morning, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin moi
rowing at all, while the other three squads
had the most perfunctory sort OF work.
The excessive heat made 1t impossible to
row hard without endangering the men.
In the afternoon a breeze from the south
brought out all the crews for little
while, most of them getting some fast
work over short stretches.
Courtney gave the Cornell varsity ard
freshmen crews a stiff two-mile workout
in which the varsity got away little bet
ter than the youngsters and pulled out
slightly In the lead at the end of the
brush. The varsity rowed smoothly, with
plenty OF power. but the freshmen hung
on doggedly, and it was a nip-and-tuck
affair from the word go.
The Columbia crews had only a little
paddle in the morning, but in the after
noon Rice gave the varsity eight a two
mile row at top speed, with the Freshmen
hanging on all the way. Rice had num-
Der of Columbia graduates in the coach
ing launch. including James Duane Liy-
ingston, president OF the Columbia So
ciety of the early sos; III. A. Usher, "a,
and E. s. ii. Phillips, member OF last
years Columbia crew.
Ellis Ward did not let the Pennsylvania
crew row in the morning, but all three
crews got on the water in the afternoon.
They rowed up to the head of the course
and came down at an easy stroke. The
Quakers continued to show their Won
derful form. which has become the one
topic of discussion among rowing men
here.
With the arrival of the advance guard
of the crowds for the regatta odds are
being quoted on the races. Cornell Is a
1-to-2 favorte to sweep the river while
the odds are 3 to on the Cornell varsity
eight against the field. Columbia is the
second choice in the varsity race, the
odds being 6 to 1 on the Blue and White.
Syracuse and Pennsylvania are quoted
alike in the betting. at 10 to 1, while Wis
consin is the outsider. 20 to | bein.
offered on the Badger eight. Cornell il
a topheayy favorite in the freshman ard
four-oared races. while the other crews
are considered worth 5-to-1 odds Mayor
Sague and the chief of police have botn
issued orders that there will be no be-
ting. but plenty of private wagers are
being made.
