Carlston of Minneapolis declared that
if the committee expected TO report
out the bill introduced by the Wood
men, that the A. o. U. W., the Royal
Arcanun and other fraternal orders
would want to be heard.
Judging from remarks made In
the committee room, it is not likely
the senate committee will report
fayorably on the measure. The COM
mittee apparently assumes the at
titude that if the bars are taken
down for this measure, other bills
will be entitled hearing too.
