Daylight Saving
Measure Attacked
in Labor Congress

Atlantic City, N. J., June 10.-A
resolution protesting against repeal
by congress OF the daylight saving
law was defeated at today's session
of the annual conference of the
American Federation of Labor.
The resolution was voted down
after a spirited fight had been
Launched against it by delegates, es-
pecially from Ohio and the south
west. Advocates of the resolution
asserted the law had operated to
the benefit of working men gen
orally.
Many delegates opposing the
measure said it had been used by
employers to cut down expenses and
as means of requiring their men to
work overtime. T. w. Mccullough
Of Omaha, delegate of the Typo
graphical union, said the law
worked especial hardships on agri-
culture. He made it clear, however,
he held no special brief for farmers,
saying amid applause:
God knows the farmer needs no
help. He is. the one man at this time
who has the world by the tail and
pulling down hill"
The vote On the daylight savings
resolution was 10 against and 154 for
it's adoption.

BELLEVUE may ,
Be LEASED BY
FLORIDA FIRM
Trustees to Accept Offer il
Terms Can Be Arranged;
the Only Way to
Avoid Failure.

At a meeting of the trustees OF
Bellevue college held yesterday
afternoon, it was decided to accept
the offer of the Cardigan Hill COR
roration of Miami, Fla, to lease
the grounds and buildings of the
college, provided satisfactory terms
Can be reached. In case the lease
is made, the college will be con-
t:nued as military academy, to be
run under the supervision Of the
present board of trustees. Some
opposition was raised during tac
rleeting, but the final vote of the
trustees stood II to four in favor
of the proposition.
The trustees wish the public tc
understand that in case the lease IS
made, the school will be conducted
in such a manner as to promote
liberal evangelical Christian educa-
ton to all students.
In speaking of the offer after the
meeting, one of the trustees said.
after careful considerat ton, the
trustees have decided that this is
the only course by which financial
failure can be avoided, and tie
property continued to be. used fer
educational purposes. The college
has never received the financial sup
port which it should have rec eived
from the Presbyterians of Ne
braska."
At all election of officers held in
connection with the meeting, Henry
=. Clarke was elected president, E.
H. jerks and c. F. McGrew vice
presidents, Henry E. Maxwell secre-
tary, and R. M. Crossman treasurer.

LABOR FAY0RS
j. OWNERSHIP
OF RAILROADS
Proposal Made at Convention
Tuesday Meets With Hearty
Support of All Dele
gates Present.

Atlantic City, June 1o.zA pros
posal that organized labor insist
upon public ownership of the rail-
roads Of the country was submitted
TO the delegates attending the r.
i construction convention of the
American Federation of Labor by
Glen E. Plumb, counsel for the rail-
road brotherhood.
The speakers statement that the
ownership of the systems should be
acquired Immediately was greeted
with prolonged applause. Tie
cheering was renewed when Mr.
Plumb said that the government
substituting government bonds for
outstanding securities, the railroads
would be removed from the die
tatorship of Wall street."
Would Save Interest Costs.
Government ownership of the
rail transportation systems, said the
speaker, would mean an annual saw
ing in interest costs from $400, 000,-
600 to $600,00O,000 annually and
probably would permit a reduction
of 10 per cent in current Transports
ton rates. The plan as detailed by
Mr.. Plumb proposes the operation
Of the roads by single corporation
regulated by and accountable to tie
government for all its acts and ex-
pcnditures.
The so-called Plumb plan has al
ready been presented to the execu-
tive council of the federation. The
council, in its report now before the
conference, recommends that the
convention endorse government
ownership of railroads.

Almost 100 resolutions were sub
