Washington. August 4-Organized
labor came out with an eQuivoca' de-
mand that the investment of private
capital cease in the railroad busl-

comes from the Big Four and is
backed by the labor federation. All
above the cost of operation to the
extert of five per cent, the opera
tives claim as their share under the
process of distribution.
The plans call for management as
well as percentage Of the surplus
and is based on what is known as

The radical features of the bill have

who profess they sec political force

STOP SALE or BEER
N TWO Weeks PLAN
Conflicting Court Decisions Con-
fuse Efforts Of Department
to Define intoxicating
Liquor

Washington, July 2.-Efforts Of the
Department 4 Justice to define the
legal status Of two and three-quarters
per cant beer. were further confused
yesterday when Federal Judge Rose at
Baltimore rendered q decision in favor
Of the brewers and Federal Judge
Sawtelle at San Francisco decided
that the sale Of such beer was illegal.
Il IL thought that an appeal Of one
Of the cases or one Of the mapy cases
now pending, will have to be taken to
the Supreme Court Of the United
States before the department can pro-
ceed against the sale Of the "kickless"
beer.
A meeting Of the. house judiciary
committee has been called for next
Monday, when an effort will be made
to reach an agreement on q bill for
enforcing the prohibition act, and to
define intoxicating liquor.
Il Ii expected that the minority
members Of the committee, headed by
Representative Igoe, Of Missouri, will
submit q substitute measure, which
would authorize the President to lift
the ban on light wines and beer. This
Il exatcly what the President asked
congress to do on the grounds that he
did not have the power to act, and
there is a strong possibility that con-
gress will accept the substitute bill.
The prohibition leaders in congress
have announced their intention of
the sale of two and three
quarters per cent beer within the next
two weeks, If possible.
