falls of the four railroad brother

plants OF the Pittsburgh district.
The result of the vote will not be

the striking steel workers accord
ing to the brotherhood executives.
A statement in connection with
the steel strike, addressed to
Penn ylvania representatives in
congress by the Homestead cham
ber OF commerce was made public
here today. The chamber says
its membership is thoroughly ac-
quainted with the industrial situa-
tion. as far as the steel industry IF

American workmen are in favor
of tho industrial peace but are in
terfered with only by imported

Washington. Oct 2s.-Chiefs of
the national and international
unions affiliated with the American
Federation of Labor, were called

The call, issued by the fedora

very foundation of its structure.
"and that it was comparative that
the responsible representatives Of
the workers agree upon funda-
mental principles" which will

No specific topics for discussion
were outlined, but it is known that
pending anti-strike legislation will

DRY LAW FIGHT
Liquor Interests Send Attorney To
Washington To Begin Supreme
Court Action.

Chicago, ILL.,, Oct. ga move
ment to combat enforcement of the
war time prohibition act developed
here today. Levy Mayer, attorney
for distillery interests, went to
Washington to begin action before
the United States supreme court
Mr.. Mayer said he believed war
time prohibition is over, and also
such laws as the Illinois search
and seizure act become inoperat-
i've. He said he based his opinion
on the federal court decision at
Louisville two days ago and on
President Wilson's veto of war
time prohibition, which MIR. Mayer
called a final pronouncement by
the president that demobilization
has been completed.
The Louisville decision held that
the war time prohibition violated
the fifth amendment to the consti-
tuition. The government appealed
direct to the supreme court and
Mr.. Mayer said he went to Wash
ington on this appeal case.
