BOTTLE OF BEER
HALTS The WORK
Speedway Park at Chicago DELAYED
Half Day When Soldier Stops
Carpenter at Lunch.

Chicago. Ill. June 19.-One bottle Of
beer halted the rapidly approaching
completion of Chicago's speedway park
and threatened 10 bring a serious
clash between $500 carpenters and
500 national guardsmen. The trouble.
which occurred during the noon hour,
was caused by an attempt by the mill
tiamen TO prevent the workmen from
drinking beer with their lunch. After
one of their number had been de-
prived of his beer and poked with
bayonet. the carpenters walked out,
declaring no soldiers or no work
According 20 statements made late
last night by David F. Reid, president
OF the Speedway association and
member of its executive committee,
conference between officials of the car
penters' union and the associations
executive committee was held early in
the evening TO deal with the unex-
pected situation which had arisen.
Mr.. Reid declared the affair had
been handled in a manner which was
satisfactory TO both sides, and that no
labor troubles would ensue
James Kirby. international presi-
dent of the carpenters union. and
John A. Metz. president of the car
penters' district council. were pres
ent" said Mr.. Reid. and promised
that no delay in the construction work
would occur. Our relations with the
unions have been friendly thus far
and both sides were anxious 10 have
them continue in the same strain. The
carpenter officials promised TO have
the men at work this morning
The trouble was caused by some
orders we issued the other day for
bidding the sale or liquor on the /
grounds. Despite these directions beer
wagons kept driving up to the gates /
and selling TO the wOrkmen. We have (
no objection 10 the men getting liquor 1
during the noon hour, but we viii not /!
have the stuff sold in the park. The /
trouble which occurred yesterday was /
simply due 20 a misunderstanding.
