PROHIBITION DENOUNCED
Ohio Federation of Labor Goes On Record
AS Against Prohibition.
VOTE IN FAVOR OF AMENDMENT AS PROPOS-
ED BY VETS

By contrast with what happened
at Cincinnati lasU year on the position
of the Ohio State Federation of Labor
on prohibition of the liquor traffic,
evidence is seen of a recession of the
prohibition wave. At that time the
Anti-Saloon League forces had made
inroads which challenged serious at
tention.
At the convention of the Federation
held in Columbus last week the pro-
test which was evoked against the
passage of the resolution condemn
ing prohibition was exceedingly feeble.
numerically speaking. On test vote
50 out of 500 delegates stood up for
the prohibition side, the question be-
ing on a formal roll call Prohibi-
tion then was denounced with thun-
derous viva voice vote
The development is not without sig
nifiance, as seen here. 1t was explain
ed that no effort was made in selec-
tion of delegates, but that the show
ing marked distinct turn of the tide
as the eventuality of prohibition was
brought near Especially bitter were
the attacks on the sponsors of the
prohibitory amendment, and tremen-
dous cheers greeted the opposition
speakers.
Thomas H. Mugavin, Cincinnati
delegate, said he had received Is let
ters from boys abroad asking them
to preserve at home their precious
liberty while they are fighting fo1
freedom on foreign soil.

LONDON, Eng-The outstanding
feature of the Inter-Allied Labor and
Socialist conference held in London
the latter part of last month, was the
influences of the American delegation
upon the decisions of the conferences
There were present representatives
from the United States, Great Britain,
France, Italy, Belgium, Serbia, and
Greece.
Much time was spent before the real
business was reached When the var
ious resolutions were discussed, it soon
appeared that the pacifist element was
bound to be defeated.
The first motion of Importance dealt
with the Austrian peace note. The
conference decided that any proposal
to hold secret meeting, as suggested
by Austria, was open to suspicion and
considered that the allies should send
ia reply to Austria defining their war
aims jointly with the United States
President Wilson having formulated
his Ia points had been able ct once to
reject the Austrian proposal, was
pointed out.
The second motion declared that

the treaty of Brest-Litovsk must not
be allowed to stand and that allied
intervention in Russia must be influ-
enced by genuine desire to preserve
liberty and democracy in conformity
with Article of President Wilson'S
IA points.
Allied War Aims Endorsed
A resolution on war aims was car
ried declared the conference deter
mined to do all in its power to assist
the allied countries in marshaling
their resources to the end that the
armed forces of the Central Powers be
driven from the soil Of our nations
which they have invaded and now oc-
cupy The resolution also embodied
President Wilson's ID points. The
third resolution, passed after lengthy
and stormy debate, expressed satisfac-
tion with the replies received from
Bulgarian and Hungarian Socialists
and Social Democrats of Austria SO
far as they accepted the decisions OF
the previous London conference as 3
basis for discussion at an information.
al meeting, but it went on to express
regret that the majority Socialists Of
Germany did not accept the Londor
proposals and failed officially to ac
cept the neutrals' proposal as basis
for discussion. So long as these points
remain unanswered, they create al
obstacle to the holding of an inter
national conference.
No international Conference
The American delegation presented
an amendment that no internationa
conference be held with any repre-
sentatives of the Central Powers un
less they declare against their respec
tive governments. This amendment
was defeated and the resolution was
passed against the pacifst vote of II
The majority desired an internationa
conference on any terms, but the over

was against them.
