give up beer?"
When the applause following the
reading of the editorial had subslded,
Mr.. Hilfers went on:
Let US get TO work In earnest.
This is no bluff on the part of the la

submitted by the New York
State Federation Of Labor,

The action Of the Cen N Federated
Union was taken at n meeting last
night at No. 2i3 East saith street.
About 200 delegates were present.
representing all OF tho various unions
In the city with "a combined member.
ship OF 100000.
When Morris Braun. Treasurer OF
the c. H. u. moved THAT the uues-
tion OF a strike against national pro-
hlbltion be submitted 10 the affiliated
organizations" there was not n dis
sentinE vote.
In introducing his motion Mr..
Braun said:
I'VE have been wag1ng this fight %
permit the working man TO have his
beer for some time. We have drawn
up protests and we have sent out pc
tltions and circulars and even n con-
vcntion OF labor has been proposed TO
impress It's vlows on the people. But
we've been wrong all the time. We've
been beaten. The national prohibition
amendment has been ratified by the
States. What we need now is direct
action.
Reports have como 70 us that min
ers in parts OF the Middle West havo
announced that II their beer Is taken
away from them they will strike. The
members OF the building trades unions
in Newark have announced similar
intention. II is timo now for the
Central Federated Union OF New York
to go on record. II we are to be de-
prlved Of our rights let us put the
question of strike squarely UP to the
organized workers"
There was little debate on the mo-
tion. Virtually every delegate pres.
ent wore mo Beer No Work" but
ton. The only reason that about a
half dozen didn't wear them was be-
cause there were not enough on hand
to go around.
