LIGHT WINES AND
BEER To De: BROUGHT
before CONGRESS-

WASHINGTON, Nov. 14.-The la
Dor group in the new congress will
fight for modification of the Vol
stead law to permit sale of light
wines and beer, if the group follows
policies of the American Federation
Of Labor, it was made clear at
the federation headquarters.
THE federation is on record as
favoring light wines and beer" said
Vice President Matthew VOL.
Plans for the fight to amend the
law may be made this week by the
executive council of the federation
which has been in session since
Thursday.
"The council may take up the
liquor question said Vice President
Frank Tobin, of indianapolis.
The labor group in the new con-
gress includes fifteen members who
belong to trades unions, according to
President Samuel GOmpers and 9TH
ers friendly to labor.
Executive Council in Session
The executive council is expected
to continue in session most of next
week.
Owing to illness of President
Gompers. the council today was un-
able, VOL said, to take up any vital
issues such as unemployment, wage
cutting and a legislative program.
Gompers is expected to return to
the council Monday, when the mem
bers will go to work to frame the
policy of the federation towards the
campaign to establish non-uniop
shops, which labor leaders charge
employers in all sections of the
country are engaging in.
, The council today heard a pro
posal that it invite Herbert Hoover
to head a movement to bring indus
trial peace.
According to information given
the council, employers are encourag-
ing their workers to join the "Amer-
lean union movement now spread
ing throughout the west. The move
ment is based on the open or non
union shop idea, according to reports
to President Gompers.
american Union" Spreads
AS union heads here see the move
ment, it is bein~ built as rival or
ganization to the trades unions af-
filiated With the American Fedora
ton of Labor. The organization is
issuing membership cards and hold
ing closed meetings like any labor
union.
I'VE have nothing to fear from it, "
said Mr.. Woll today.
"---idently the American Union. Is
an attempt to recru-x non-union
workers or those not affiliated with
the American Federation of Labor
Organization of these workers is a
GOOD thing. If they can be tau%'
t to act in Concert, they soon will find
their way into the regularly constii-
tuted trades unions affiliated with
the American Federation of Labor;
This will save us the expense and
labor of organizing them. In the
end, Of course, the regular trades
union movement will be strength
ened and all workers will benefit. II
this is a move of the employers, 1t
will prove a boomerang for them.

man took place on Saturday afternoon
when Harold Lever, the sensational
freshman sprinter, won two events at
Cornell against the Ithacan freshmen.
On the Saturday of the relays it will
be remembered Lever finished second to
Scholtz, of Missouri, by virtually
throwing himself across the finish line.
The youngster had to be carried to the
dressing room, where. doctors pro-
nounced his injury as badly pulled
tendon. Usually that sort of dag
nosis means layof of several months,
IL not permanently.
Morris was appealed to and he sat
to work to get the youngster in shape.
Within ten days Lever was able to get
into track suit and jog easily around
The track. The treatment continued
and Lever asked Coach Robertson to
permit him to make the trip to Ithaca.
The permission was granted with the
proviso that IL the injured leg did not
feel just right Lever should remain on
the sidelines. Lever felt fright" went
into the meet and won two events, the
hundred and the broad jump.
