Gompers and Wilson
Address the American
Federation Of Labor

Baltimore, Md, Nov 13-Secre-
tary of Labor William B. Wilson de-
livered the principal address at the
opening here today of the thirty-sixth
annual convention of the American
Federation of Labor. He said he was
present for, the purpose of showing
which side he was on.
"The greatest of all the functions
of the Department of Labor sand
the secretary, "is that of having the
hopes, aspirations and philosophy Of
the wage workers of our country
come into the councils of the presi-
dent of the United States"
OF the 800 disputes between labor
and capital that had come before his
department, Mr.. Wilson said as
had been settled in manner salts
factory to both sides and before a
strike had been reached.
President Samuel Gompers, i'll an
address, declared that in the relations
between the United States and Mex
leo the American Federation of Labor
had part i'll counselling the Mexican
working men SO that they might exert
a steadying influence upon the people
and government of Mexico "and that
the exploiters Of Wall street should
not drive us into passion and anger
and compel conflict with our much
weaker sister republic of Mexico"
This statement evoked 1ong-con-
tinued applause.
rThe Lusitania situation was taken
we'll in hand by the officials of our
government Mr.. Gompers added,
"and instead OF declaring war with
bluster, the aims and purposes OF
that diplomacy have accomplished all
that war could secure"
The passage by congress of the sea-
mems act and the Clayton antitrust
law were vindicated by the people of
the United States last Tuesday, Mr..
Gompers declared.
Invocations were offered by Car
dinal Gibbons and Bishop John Gard
ner Murray OF the Protestant Epis-
copal diosece OF Maryland The two
prelates greeted each other heartily
when they were escorted to the plat
form.

NO CUT RATESON
LIQUOR LICENSES
Saloon Men Will Have to Put
Up Thousand Dollars to Keep
Open Four Months.
TWO THOUSAND IN LINCOLN

Much misinformation is current
about the status of saloon licenseS
after the expiration of the current
municipal year, January | next, and
up to May /, when the new prohibi-
tion amendment becomes effective.
Some liquor dealers are under the i'm
preston that they can get four
months license for half years
license fee of $500 when the law has
been that no License issued in Omaha
for less than the fee Of $1,000 for a
whole year, whether the applicant
paying the money has the benefit Of
the full years period or nots
| All the liquor dealers had paid the
| 81, 200 license fee, supposed to author
ize them to operate until, midnight,
when the 8 o'clock closing law was
passed, cutting off a third of their
business hours, but no rebate or al
lowance was ever made on the license
money. So now the lawyers agree
that no new license can be granted in
Omaha after January l for less than
ST 900, even though the license can
serve its purpose for only four
months.
Section 1869 -of the statutes governs
the issueN Of licenses to sell liquor in
cities of the metropolitan class and
provides that they shall be granted
for the municipal year, which in
cities OF the metropolitan class, from
January | Of one year to January |
of the following year" and that the
amount to be paid for the license
shall be mot less than ST 900 in metro
politan cities" The courts have also
repeatedly held that the full license
fee must be paid in before a valid
license can be issued. that the license
money belongs to the school fund,
and that there is no way of recovering
any part Of it back when the license
lapses or is revoked.
Only outside of incorporated cities
Of the first and metropolitan classes,
lis the minimum license fee $500, aid
therefore the $500 exaction will apply
only to liquor dealers doing business
in Douglas county beyond the city
limits.
The highest license now being paid
in the state is at Lincoln, where the
tax is $1,000 for the year.
The Omaha tax for running sa-
loon will be 1000 for the four months
or $3.50 month, which is practically
$40 alday for each day the saloon is
open.

French Writer Says it is Time
For Britons to Begin Fighting


The writer cites utterances OF
French deputies to support his claim
and remarks that the British are
holding only $50 kilometers Of the
front compared to the French 58O
kilometers. He adds;
There is not one village in France
where the people do not expect our
friends to enable us after twenty.
seven months hard struggle, to have
some rest during the third winter
and prepare for an advance next year
without having to exhaust ourselves.
This is what our people feel. They
have put their trust in Great Britain
and they all expect the relief Of a
good bit of the. French line to be made
soon."
