Stuart Reed, organizer for the Amer
lean federation of labor in Los Angeles,
speaking of this political move on the
part of the laborites says: Death to
the liquor trust will be the slogan of
union labor in this city henceforth. A
dry town and a union town, decency
and fair treatment for all, will be the
cry of the union workingmen in the
next campaign. The entire influence
| of the American federation of labor
will be with this platform. Let the
breweries foam and the distillers bub
! ble we will be for prohibition. The
liquor trust is never for the good Of
! the workers Its politics are not our
| kind. We viii go out to win against
the vets of all other parties"
This course will be taken because of
the action of the State brewers asso"
