WET ADVOCATES
IN UNION CIRCLES
ARE STILL ACTIVE
Despite Prohibition Minnesota
Trades Union League Plans
Cam aign.

News dispatches Monday morning
stated that a. sroup Of delegates to
the convention Of the State Fedora
ton of Labor at New Ulm Sunday
night held a meeting and elected Of
ficers of the Minnesota Trades Union
league.
1--WE will fight prohibition until we
are under the sod, where they think
they have John Barleycorn now," de-
clared Frank Hoffman Of Minnea-
polls, who was elected president
Plans were announced for an extensive
campaign for the return of the sa-
looms.
Members of unions allied with the
brewing industry are members of the
league, which has been in existence
for several years and which was ex-
ceedingly active in the wet and dry
fights in this state. With wartime
prohibition now in effect, and the
constitutional amendment taking
force Jan. 16, next year, it appears
ill-advised and indiscreet for the
promoters Of the league to become
active at this time.
With the dry ban effective in sew
eral cities, it has been. shown that
brewery workers and other trades
men have not suffered, but instead
are more prosperous than ever be-
cause of the stimulus given to the soft
drink and non-alco beverage business.
ness.
The sentiment of large majority
Of trades unionists is typified, by the
following communication which has
been received by The Labor World:
hope that the people will not be
mlsled by the statement that the Min
nesota Trades Union league has started
as sort of TO the last ditch" fight
original purpose Of the league, which
counter organization against the
Trades Union Dry leagues.
The Minnesota Trades Union league
now in session at New Ulm, is made
up of many former brewery and
saloon workers of various kinds. The
manner in which the morning paper
played up the story is apt to fool many
people into believing that the Mime
sofa State Federation of Labor was the
organization referred to-.

more than rs years, and I know that
more union men in this state are
against the saloons than in favor of

NEW YORK, July 24.-The opposi-
ton Of express companies to the par
eel post system has not been justi-
fled, according to a writer in the An
nalist, financial paper, who says:
Zone misconception which has
grown up is to the effect that the
express companies have been seri-
ously hurt by the parcel post sys-
tem.4 1t would be denying the facts
to say that the parcel post system
has, not cut deeply into certain
class of express business, that of the
small parcel. Yet this loss would not
seriously injure the express business
for its handling of large packages has
grown to huge proportions"
It is stated that the companies will
not follow the plan of the railroads
and demand that old, conditions be
restored. The express companies IA
vor a continuance of the wartime
merger, but will expect a rate in
crease Of 25 per cent.

j, S. HIGH COURT
ASSUMESP0WERS
attorney for A. F. Of |. Is Au-
thor Of Powerful Indictment
Against Judiciary.

WASHINGTON, July 24.-Nowhere
in the Constitution is the United
States supreme court given the right
to review acts of congress, says Jack
son H. Ralston of this city in an 80
page pamphlet on "Study and Report
for the American Federation of Labor
Upon Judicial Control over Legisla-
lures as to constitutional Questions"
BY authority Of the 1913 A. F. Of L.
convention the executive council re-
quested Mr.. Ralston to prepare the re-
port.
The author is well-known attorney
and has been associated with other
A. F. of L.. counsel in several not
able legal cases. The study and re-
port is an Observation-Disclosures polite
review Of the United States supreme
court. and various state supreme courts
Authority is quoted to sustain the
claim that no part of the judiciary
tional convention gave the supreme
court jurisdiction over acts Of con-
gress, and that at best this power
is only inferred.
In many instances. decisions that
profoundly affect the life of the peo-
pie are based, not on the const1tu-
ton, but on the personal views Of
the judges. Citations to this effect
are printed and include this state
ment by Justice Field who, in setting
aside the income tax law over 20
years ago, said: 1.-THE present assault
upon capital is but the beginning"
From a political standpoint the au-
thor shows that the courts act as
a check on the expressed will of the
people, postpone remedial legislation
and subordinate the law-making
branch Of government.
The recall of judges. the author
holds, is no solution as far as prin-
ciple is concerned, and he favors a
constitutional amendment which
would prohibit acts of congress be-
ing set aside, but would permit courts
to pass upon acts of executive and in
ferior powers that exceed the au-
thority given them by law makers.

OF
INJURED PERSONS
Division Of State Labor DEPART
Ilent to Aid Disabled Work.
tngmen.

With the first of July the act which
was pushed by organized labor at the
recent session of the legislature to es-
tablish a division for the re-education
and placement >of crippled working
men was carried into effect. The
division is a. part. Of the work of the
department Of education with offices
in the Historical Society building. Os-
car M. Sullivan who has been chief
statistician of the department of labor
and industries for the past two years
and as such has been in touch with
problems of industrial accidents I'M
der the compensation law, has been
chosen director Of re-education. He
will continue. however. as chief Stats
tician with the Department of Labor
receiving salary only for the reed
ucation work. The law provides that
plan Of cooperation shall be for
mulated by the state board for voca-
tional education and the department
of labor with the approval of the
governor. It was felt that both the
compensation work and the re-educa-
ton work would. gain by being
brought close together and, on this
account the plan was evolved con-
tinuing Mr.. Sullivan as chief statisti-
clan.
The placement Of handicapped per-
sons will be through a special officer
who will be located with one of the
employment bureaus Of the Depart
ment of Labor, =:
Although the main object of this
law was to provide for finding new
occupations for persons who were so
badly crippled by Industrial accidents
that they could not continue in the
lines in which they were engaged, it
is not limited: to such disabilities. It's
benefits are available to those who
are injured in industrial accidents out
side of the comp ensation. act such as
railroads and agriculture. to persons
injured in street accidents and to per-
sons who lose members as result OF
disease. The only qualification is that
at the time the disability was incurred
the person must have been a resident
or citizen of the: State Of Minnesota.
1t is the belief Of those in charge of
the work that more applications will
be received during the first year than
the funds will take care of. AS far
as possible preference will be given
to the major disabilities, such as loss
or loss of the use of, both eyes. arm,
hand, leg or foot. Aside from this,
applications will be taken in the order
in which they are received.
