The Dissolution OF Austria-Hungary

THAT portion Of the peace treaty which submitted
Monday BY the Allied representatives, to the Eepresen-

100000 to 100000 inhabing territory Of only about
5000 square miles.

When the dynasty weakened, its unveiled components

treaty only follows that which the people had determined
for themselves.

c. L. o. Secretary Says Organized
Labor Will Contribute More Than
100000 to Dread Fund"

"Organized labor Of Washington

Of money in excess of 100000 in aid

% it quickly" declared Newton A.

Union, yesterday, discussing national

continued Mr.. James, that every man
and woman making up the ninety or
more local labor unions of this city.

will contribute to the bread fund for
~ striking steel men at least 81 per

we. of organized labor believe that

II Homestead in 1892. is waging a
battle for an existence and the rights
to them by the Constitution Of our
in their fight with our dollars.
| Immediately following the call Of
moral and financial support of all or
gained labor for the steel strikers, the
local unions began to arrange to make
their contributions. At the outset it
was thought that 81 per capita would
be sufficient to relieve the pressing sit
|
a more liberal one, and now it seems to
be the determination of the leaders Of
the local labor movement to contribute
full days pay for the steel strike
bread fund.-
Local No. 1872, International Broth
erhood Of Carpenters and Joiners, this
city. with membership Of 5000 men
working at 81 a day, has voted a
days pay. which means $4,000. The
army Of machinists, members of the In
ternational Association of Machinists,
local lodge No. ia, navy yard en-.
ployes, approximately 1000 men, have
indicated their purpose to vote days
pay"
The call of the American Federation
| of Labor for moral and financial sup
port for the steel strikers directs that
all contributions be forwarded to Frank
| Morrison. secretary Of the organization,
who will without expense send money
to the managers of the strike. Commits
saries are being opened in the strike
district to feed the strikers and their
wives and children.

DOUBTS VALIDITY
OF WAR DRY LAW
Federal Judge Hand Ex'
presses Opinion in Case
in New York.
By the Associated Press.

f; BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, November Seen
| uine doubt" as to the validity of the
| wartime prohibition act. already held
! unconstitutional by a United States
district court in Kentucky. was ex-
pressed here today by Federal Judge
| l.. A. Hand. The opinion was given
during the hearing of arguments on a
motion to vacate an Injunction claS-
styling the Eastern Hotel as pub
| lie nuisance under the Volstead law.
| The question of the validity of the
| law was put aside by the judge as not
| coming within the scope of the hear
| ing, but considerable Importance was
| attached to his words as he reserved
| decision last week upon motions to
have wartime prohibition declared
unconstitutional. In todayS case
Judge Hand said:
| Meaning, Not Validity, Question.
"Of course. the act may be invalid.
There is to my mind a very genuine
doubt about that. The act may be in
valid, but we are not discussing its
valid ty. We discuss ng it's
meaning. 1t seems to me quite clear
| that Its meaning IS that IL snail RI .
President has not made any statement

Judge Hand then asked both sides
| if they could furnish any authorities
defining the war powers of Congress.
Assistant United States Attorney Earl
b. Barnes, arguing for the government,
| said that to his knowledge there were
move. He asserted that such war
powers, however, arise from direct
pOweiS gwen CUnSreSs to declare war,
War Powers of Congress.
'These powers imply that Congress
has the right to successfully prosecute
| to final determination. all phases of
the war" he said.
| Suppose the war was declared over
and ended last July, but there still
exists the food crisis labor unrest
and other situations directly growing
out of the war-wou'd not Congress
! have the right to 1egislate for the
! nations safety any form of regula-
I ton tending to the public good?'
! 1.-THE end of the war does not neces-
: sarily mark the beginning of the
! period at which the acts of Congress
| again become justiciable questions"
i Mr.. Barnes continued. 1.-The acts of
Congress as a result of the war may,
/ because of the wars consequences,
still be regarded as political questions.
Also. If Congress has the power to
! enact certain legislation. it likewise
has the power to determine the length
| of the effectiveness of it,"
